Reef Finance and Klever are announcing a strategic partnership around a variety of activities to immediately grant access to over 3 million users to the Reef Chain mainnet, add the first external validator, introduce staking REEF in Klever, and bring new liquidity bridges live!

With the vision of Making DeFi Easy, Reef Finance and Klever have been working together behind the scenes to enable Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain (BSC) liquidity bridges to Reef Chain. These liquidity bridges are live now in Klever’s Android and iOS non-custodial, multi-blockchain wallet apps! This makes it possible to bridge REEF to and from Ethereum and BSC to Reef Chain immediately.

In addition, Klever has begun operating the first external Reef Chain validator, beginning our journey to full decentralization before the end of 2021. The Klever team worked closely with Reef Finance to make this a reality, and we thank them for joining us on this journey, launching the Substrate-based Reef Chain in earnest.

“Klever is all about making it easy to manage and grow your crypto, while supporting ambitious projects with the same mindset. Therefore we are proud to enter this strategic partnership with Reef Finance to provide the only liquidity bridge to Reef Mainnet seamlessly through Klever Swap and enable Reef Mainnet Staking in Klever. We are also excited to become the first external validator on Reef Mainnet, bringing vast experience of node operations as Klever today maintains close to 100 different nodes on dozens of major blockchains, and being part of advancing decentralization throughout the crypto industry.”

- Dio Ianakiara, CEO and co-founder of Klever

This is all made possible thanks to a successful audit by Halborn, a leading blockchain security firm, completing the final necessary step before launching the network. This matches the ethos of Klever’s true and secure cryptocurrency ownership. Reef Chain launches its full mainnet with over 200 smart contracts deployed on its testnet, with more expected to come thanks to the Reef developer support program offering financial and technical expertise to teams wishing to deploy on Reef Chain.

“It’s time that Reef opened the floodgates for DeFi. Our focus is enabling a new age of cross-chain DeFi, where users from other blockchains can use Reef Chain for all their DeFi needs without hassle. This partnership with Klever is a massive step forwards in terms of decentralization and we are deeply impressed by the professionalism and success of their team. It’s with great pleasure that we announce our new liquidity bridge and staking capabilities with Klever.”

- Denko Mancheski, Founder of Reef Finance
