🤝 Partnerships

🟣 Prime Protocol

In the first partnership announced in September, Beamswap joined forces with Prime Protocol.

Prime Protocol is the first natively cross-chain prime brokerage, and with its technology, the Beamex platform incentivized cross-chain lending opportunities.

The integration of Prime Protocol now lets Beamex users borrow across ecosystems and deposit into BLP on Beamex.

Besides, Prime Protocol enhances Beamex with:

✔️ Instant liquidity on any chain for users to deposit or borrow assets
✔️ One line of credit to unlock the liquidity of users’ entire portfolio
✔️ Option to initiate a transaction covered with gas fees from another chain

🟣 Moonbeam Ignite

A level higher, in the world of Beamswap’s native parachain, things started to get heated, as well.

Moonbeam Ignite’s liquidity initiative has launched to further boost the network’s potential, and Beamswap joined in, too.

The new Moonbeam program was designed to increase the intensity of Moonbeam’s vibrant ecosystem, led by projects that were funded by the Moonbeam Ecosystem Grants tranche two — Beamswap included.

Beamswap is using the approved grant to enhance market liquidity for Beamex and Beamswap v3, leading to more active users and greater engagement in the Moonbeam network.

📈 Beamswap v3

🟣 Equilibrium partnership and xcEQD listing

Partnerships didn’t end in the previous paragraph. The latest addition to the Beamswap v3 DeFi Hub was brought by Equilibrium, with its EQD token being listed on the platform.

Equilibrium’s EQD is a decentralized, Polkadot-native stablecoin pegged to USD and backed by a diverse portfolio of assets. Secured by Insurance Pool, it only creates new positions after locking in a sufficient collateral.

🟣 xcEQD — xcUSDT Farm

The direct aftermath of integrating the EQD token was listing the xcEQD — xcUSDT Farm on Beamswap.

You can now earn rewards by staking Equilibrium-powered stablecoin brought natively to Polkadot, with over 50% APR.

📈 Beamex, perpetual DEX

🟣 Beamex on BrainDex Router

Much has been going on in the decentralized perpetual exchange, Beamex, as well.

One such upgrade was the integration with BrainDex, which now has the ability to seamlessly route through the Beamex liquidity pool.

This brings price-impact-free trades for all supported tokens, plus enhanced liquidity sourcing and greater transaction speed.

BrainDex, a pro-level liquidity aggregator, now delivers more efficient markets and better trades to Beamex.

🟣 Record-breaking volume

The benefits and features of Beamex clearly keep attracting new users and turning them into recurring traders.

We are extremely proud that Beamex soared to and beyond the $15,000,000 mark in total volume, after just a few months of serving crypto traders on Moonbeam. 🚀

Here’s what makes Beamex, a perpetual DEX on Moonbeam, a game-changer in crypto trading:

🟣 Beamex on Builda

The hard work and a growing influx of crypto traders paid off and started turning heads.

The Beamex perpetual DEX was featured on Builda, a platform dedicated to Web3 builders and enthusiasts. It showcases the hottest projects in the decentralized and crypto sphere, Beamex included, and exposes them to a wide Web3 community.

After already hitting the #1 position among recent Web3 projects, Beamex has now secured a solid third place.

👨‍👧‍👦 Community

🟣 Summer DeFi Competitions

Gone is the sunniest season of all, and so are the SummerDeFi Giveaways.

First, we awarded the 25 winners of the Zealy Summer DeFi Competition and distributed some sweet bags of stGLINT.

If you missed it, check out the prize distribution on 👉 Moonscan.

And shortly after, the AirLyft Summer DeFi Competition came to an end, and the rewards found their way to their rightful owners.

The details of prize distribution can, again, be found on 👉 Moonscan.

Huge congratulations to all the winners, and thank you to everyone who participated and spread the word about Beamswap across the web! 🚀

🟣 Builda Weekly

To balance out the anonymous community campaigns and competitions, the Beamswap team joined in-person get-togethers on several occasions.

First, following the listing of Beamex on Builda, the Builda Weekly call on X Spaces hosted Beamswap’s Business Developer Jay and the AlphaTrace team. We touched on the ins and outs of Web3, the Beamswap v3 and Beamex platforms, and more.

If you missed it, here is a nice little link for you. 👇

🟣 Swap Talk

Soon after Builda’s Weekly sesh, it was time to switch roles and host an X Space Event on our own. In a new format, we moved the well-received Swap Talks format from Telegram to X Spaces.

Beamswap’s Business Developer Jay joined Moonbeam Community Lead, Phill, and the CEO of Equilibrium, Alex Melikhov, in an online Spaces studio.

It was an intriguing debate for sure, as we discussed each team’s latest upgrades and upcoming releases towards an interoperable future.

🟣 Polkadot Community Call

In another edition of X Spaces in September, Beamswap Business Developer Jay tuned into the popular Polkadot Community Call.

Joined by other major players in the Polkadot ecosystem, Jay delivered an in-depth presentation of Beamswap, its features, and some interesting news.

🟣 AirLyft Competition with Equilibrium

🟣 XOTM — X (tweet) of the month

Sometimes, one just needs to be reminded about the true value of things in plain English and numbers to illustrate the point. Thanks, Marin, for your support and a nice wrap-up of our work! 🙌

It’s official: shorter days and longer nights are here. As we spend more time inside, why not use it on something that brings rewards?
