Marina Protocol ($BAY): from listing to ecosystem expansion in 2026

After its TGE and global listing in 2025, Marina Protocol is entering a more structural phase of development. The team recently outlined key priorities for 2026, signaling a shift from launch momentum toward long-term Web3 MarTech infrastructure.

The roadmap highlights four main pillars:

A trustless rewards system designed to improve transparency and user incentives

A dedicated Web3 MarTech platform targeting on-chain marketing use cases

$BAY on-chain staking to reinforce token utility

Gamified applications to drive engagement beyond speculation

This transition is important. Many Web3 projects stall after listing, but Marina appears focused on building concrete utility and sustainable mechanics. A more detailed roadmap is expected soon via an updated whitepaper, which should clarify execution timelines.

In parallel, Bitget Crazy 48H Phase 16 is currently live, allowing traders to trade $BAY while competing for a share of 14,040 BGB across more than 600 winners. While incentive-driven, it also offers an opportunity to observe market interest around the token during this expansion phase.

The key question for 2026 will be execution: can Marina translate MarTech ambition into real adoption?
Curious to hear how others here are evaluating $BAY’s long-term potential.
