Test, test… Ash Alpha is over — Tests were successful!
We are happy to announce that our first testing round, Ash Alpha, has ended. The team has been smashing and crashing the first version of Ash with more than a hundred selected users including Melonport, KR1, Woorton and other key players in the blockchain-powered asset management space. Constant debugging and pushing of updates provided us with some sleepless nights but it was absolutely worth it!
Ash Alpha was open for 6 weeks and invited users were able to buy and sell assets on the Kovan testnet and challenge each other in the VS mode. After an initial liquidity shortage on the Kovan testnet exchanges, the Alpha trading bot kicked in and fired up the trading flow on Ash.
Testers shared their experiences in a closed Telegram group and talked about the ongoing challenges. An Alpha survey gave the opportunity to share detailed feedback that will serve the team as important input for the further development. The feedback was generally positive and users voiced their excitement to see Ash going to the next level:
“Ash is a fresh new take on the usually intimidating world of asset management, let alone its technologically advanced younger cousin — on-chain asset management. Their sleek UX/UI makes competitive social trading accessible, easy and fun. As a non-custodial solution backed by the Melon protocol, Ash doesn’t hold your assets or sell your live trading data to high-frequency funds who then use this data-feed to front-run the retail. Thus, Ash offers a fairer approach where a user is truly a first class citizen.” — Ana Andrianova (Akropolis)
“The app combines fun and professionalism for your investments in digital assets. It allows investors to copy different strategies without giving up the ownership of their assets.” — Mauro Casellini (Bank Frick)
“Ash is a unique and fun approach to investing which allows users to compete against one another for a rewards pool. It’s fun to see different applications being built on the Melon protocol and I look forward to seeing their beta go live this summer!” — Mona El Isa (Madeeba)
Ash beta is planned for summer this year and users can already sign up for via https://ash.finance
