<p>MapleStory Universe wrapped up its third quarter, and it was another successful one for the books. Throughout Q3, MapleStory Universe processed 54 million transactions and expanded its builder ecosystem.</p><p>The&nbsp;<a href="https://medium.com/maplestory-universe/ir-msu-ecosystem-3q-2025-wrap-up-30ff611d8c59">Q3 MapleStory Universe wrap-up</a> provides better insights into long-term trends for the game. Considering MapleStory Universe had to navigate major obstacles throughout Q3, such as dealing with&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/Hacker-Activity-Exposes-Flaws-MapleStory-N">hacker activity</a> and community&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/maplestory-n-community-criticize-the-web3-mmo-and-nexpace">criticism</a>, many were looking forward to these numbers.</p><h2>Q3 Numbers for MapleStory Universe</h2><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:65.12%;"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/maplestory_universe_transactions_0bf0a52f3a.jpg" alt="MapleStory Universe transactions screenshot" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/maplestory_universe_transactions_0bf0a52f3a.jpg 226w, https://assets.funjible.games/maplestory_universe_transactions_0bf0a52f3a.jpg 500w" sizes="100vw"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Transaction volume for&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/games/maple-story-n">MapleStory N</a> was steady throughout Q3. The platform processed roughly 19 million monthly transactions in August and September, after processing 16 million in July. Total cumulative accounts surpassed 1.75 million by quarter's end.</p><p>The MapleStory Universe ecosystem generated 9.5 million NXPC in revenue across the three months, and enhancement-related activities drove nearly 90 percent of that total.</p><p>Token holders continued to grow across the board. NESO holders increased from 266,105 in July to 374,183 by September, while NXPC holders expanded from 332,278 to 404,682 during the same period.</p><h2>Security Crackdowns for MapleStory Universe</h2><p>MapleStory Universe previously banned over 65,000 accounts that exploited bugs or cheats to gain unfair advantages in Q3. Following the manual clean-up efforts, the team improved behavioral analysis tools to detect suspicious patterns better.</p><p>MSU devs plan to improve the game's detection models further to stay ahead of evolving exploit methods.</p><p>Another highlight for MapleStory Universe has been Smithy, the first on-chain enhancement module. The tool lets builders adopt MapleStory Universe's enhancement logic for their own projects.</p><p>MSU highly values builder participation, so giving developers more tools is a step toward achieving&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/the-interoperability-dilemma-is-crypto-gaming-too-ambitious">interoperable</a> services across the game’s ecosystem.</p><div class="raw-html-embed">
