Summary

Last month, the team focused on implementing the destination gas fee feature, a crucial addition that facilitated the enabling of the Ethereum network on MultiSwap. Additionally, significant progress was made in expanding the range of supported tokens on MultiSwap, with dozens of tokens added for each available network. These enhancements contribute to a more diverse and comprehensive trading experience for users across different networks.

The Mainnet development efforts centered on redesigning parts of the Quantum Portal (QP) to facilitate cost-effective and efficient miner stake delegations. This redesign necessitated updates to smart contracts, aiming to streamline the process of stake delegations while optimizing resource utilization on the Mainnet.

Mainnet

Last month we redesigned parts of the QP to allow for cheap and efficient miner stake delegations. There were changes in smart contracts to support the new staking system. We also worked on setting up QPN testnet infra and automate the deployment.

MultiSwap

Our team has been hard at work, implementing new features and expanding our offerings to provide you with a seamless and accessible decentralized exchange experience.

We are pleased to announce the successful implementation of the destination gas fee feature, a significant milestone in our efforts to optimize trading on MultiSwap. With this enhancement, we are proud to enable support for the Ethereum network on MultiSwap, providing users with greater flexibility and efficiency in their transactions.

In our commitment to offering a diverse range of assets, we have added dozens of tokens for each network available on MultiSwap. This expansion of token offerings enhances accessibility for users, allowing them to access a wider variety of assets and explore new trading opportunities. Whether you’re interested in Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, or any other supported network, you’ll find a rich selection of tokens available for trading on MultiSwap.

With these enhancements in place, we are excited to announce that MultiSwap is poised for launch in the next few days. However, before we go live, we are conducting rigorous testing to ensure the stability, security, and reliability of the platform. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we want to ensure that MultiSwap delivers a superior trading experience from day one..

Roadmap 2024

We are thrilled to announce the successful launch of our Roadmap 2024, providing a comprehensive overview of our focus and priorities for the year. Strategically divided into quarterly milestones, our real-time roadmap ensures the community can track our progress transparently. Stay tuned for an insightful year-end review article and video, where we’ll not only reflect on our achievements but also unveil exciting details about the upcoming year in the weeks ahead.
