Magpie’s Flight(road)map: A Year-Long Journey through 2024
In the world of blockchain technology, protocols must constantly evolve and innovate to remain competitive and relevant, which is one of the many reasons Magpie is committed to staying ahead and soaring above; by integrating new blockchains, technologies, and continuing to evolve as a protocol and project. After an amazing 2023, in which we successfully launched the Magpie private alpha, private beta, and public beta dApp, among many other milestones, which you can check out in our 2023 rundown article here.
At Magpie, we strive to create a safe, efficient, and user-friendly place to transact within DeFi, allowing users easy access to eight of the top blockchains, of which we’ll be more than doubling this year. Magpie offers a completely unique order routing algorithm that will continue to provide our community with the best deals in DeFi. Today, we’ll be sharing with you today our strategic roadmap spanning all four quarters. As we begin to FLY into 2024, we will continue to push forward and soar to new heights, so let’s take a look at what’s to come.
Q1
The year kicks off with Magpie’s private fundraising round, to secure the resources necessary to fuel our sky-high goals to help us soar through the new year. Simultaneously, Magpie Mafia Season 2 unfolds, with exciting new events and surprises. Excitingly, we’re integrating quite a few EVM chains like zkSync, Mantle, Gnosis, Celo, Manta Network, and MovementLab, expanding the reach of Magpie’s clutch.
The introduction of Magpie Explorer and B2B services marks a step towards enhancing user experience by integrating the Magpie architecture into other projects. Users on other platforms and through other protocols will be able to take advantage of of the Magpie architecture for the best pricing and swap experience out there through any of the protocols that integrate us. With this, Magpie will help to grow the DeFi ecosystem as all projects who link together will mutually benefit from expanded reach and reach.
Last, but certainly not least, Q1 will see the beta release of Magpie Intents, opening up a world of new possibilities, while Gas refill will ensure an even better swap experience when moving cross-chain.
Q2
As Magpie moves into the second quarter, our focus shifts towards stability for the Magpie dApp, with the launch of Magpie 1.0 Stable and Magpie Intent stable, to make sure we’re providing users with the most robust, user-friendly, efficient, and reliable platform.
The introduction of the FLY dashboard and the Token Generation Event (TGE) in April is probably one of, if not the most anticipated events, so we’re looking forward to the excitement from the community.
Next, the Magpie dApps compatibility continues to grow with EVM chains like Fantom, Klayton, Moonbeam, Starknet, Scroll, Astar, and Heco joining the ecosystem, along with non-EVM chains Solana, Aptos, and Sui. An absolute nest-full of new chains, almost doubling the number of supported blockchains.
Another highly requested feature: Perpetuals. Magpie will be aggregating Perpetuals to further diversify the Magpie ecosystems offerings.
Q3
Entering Q3, we aim to enhance the Magpie user experience even further by introducing account abstraction in the FLY dashboard, adding lots of functionality and features to the dApp. Later on in Q3, Magpie will continue to integrate new EVM and non-EVM chains, while being guided by market activity, as well as community input and current trends.
In a big leap forward for maintaining our commitment to getting everyone the best price available, with access to the most liquidity, Magpie will be introducing Centralized exchange (CEX) liquidity aggregation. That’s not all for huge events in Q3 though, we’ve got the launch of The Magpie mobile app. By releasing a mobile app, Magpie will be able to reach an entirely new audience, as millions of people around the globe exclusively use their cell phones for crypto, and will be able to explore 15+ blockchain on-the-go through the Magpie ecosystem.
In regards to expanding the Magpie flocks reach to help further increase Magpie’s visibility to users all over crypto, we will have multiple exchange listings for the FLY token, providing visibility to Magpie protocol for millions of users who don’t otherwise take part in DeFi.
Let’s not forget about the birds though, Magpie Mafia Season 3 will begin in Q3, continuing our community events and adding even more layers of excitement for the community.
Q4
The final quarter of 2024 will be an epic end to cap off quite the amazing year as we integrate more EVM and non-EVM chains based on market trends and user activity and launch the Magpie 2.0 Alpha, to showcase the evolution and growth of the past two years of hard work. Additionally, the Liquidity Provision launch and token rewards program for Liquidity Providers (LPs) and solvers will reinforce our commitment to the community.

The year concludes with Magpie solidifying its position as a leader in the blockchain space, introducing 15–20 plus new blockchains, Intent-based swaps, the FLY token, account abstraction, CEX liquidity integration, the Magpie mobile app, and much more. Magpie is committed to innovation and user experience. With each successive milestone, Magpie sets the stage for a promising future, providing our users a seamless, efficient, user-friendly, and rewarding flight through DeFi in the ever-evolving crypto ecosystem.
