Hello Eximchain supporters,
We have been working hard to prepare for mainnet launch. During our first online AskMeAnything session, we have announced that Eximchain Mainnet is tentatively scheduled to be launched on October 5th!
Technical development
Mainnet Development
Mainnet is now tentatively scheduled to be launched on October 5th. On October 5th you will be able to connect to the network and the token swap process will begin. This marks the Gamma phase of our deployment to let outside participants connect freely. If you participated in our testnet you will have early access to connect and help us conduct final production ready tests with final network configurations (keep an eye out for our bounty program).
Quadratic Voting
We plan to start the first masternode voting round in November, with early adopters first. The early adopters will be mainly private sale contributors and strategic participants. Other token holders have about 10 weeks to go through onboarding process and pass KYC before token swap happens if they want to participate in the first public voting cycle.
Token Swap
Two weeks before the Final Snapshot Day, T Day, an announcement will be made and the onboarding process will be paused. On T Day, all ERC-20 tokens will be frozen. Two weeks after T Day, Tokens will be fully swapped and everyone will be on mainnet. In the meantime, the onboarding process re-actives again. The answers to questions related to Eximchain Mainnet and Token Swap can be found here.

Partnership with Enigma on using secret smart contract in Supply Chain Finance
Last month, we announced our partnership with Enigma on creating a novel supply chain finance use case by leveraging secret smart contracts. Eximchain is creating a decentralized way for borrowers to secure the best rates given their credit profile, while maintaining ownership and privacy over their data throughout. You can find the details from our Medium article here.
