March 16, 2022 — We are pleased to announce a strategic partnership between Zenlink and Gear Technologies, a WASM smart contract platform for Polkadot!

Zenlink is an underlying cross-chain DEX protocol based on Polkadot. By accessing the ultimate, open, and universal cross-chain DEX protocol based on Substrate, Zenlink DEX Protocol enables all parachains to build DEX and achieve liquidity sharing in one click. Zenlink DEX Protocol includes Module, EVM, and WASM implementations, of which both the Module and EVM versions have been deployed on the mainnet and we are seeking active partners to deploy the WASM version.

We believe this integration partnership helps us progress toward our shared vision of enabling more developers to build using WASM for Web3. Furthermore, we plan to deploy the Zenlink DEX WASM version to Gear’s network when it becomes a Polkadot and Kusama parachain, for which we have tested the deployment on Gear’s staging testnet. The following video demonstrates the Zenlink DEX WASM Demo doing a swap and adding liquidity in the testnet environment.

About Gear Network

Gear is a next-generation WebAssembly smart contract platform based on Substrate. This platform will make it easier than ever for developers to bridge the gap between Web 2.0 and Web3. Gear offers a “blockchain as a service” platform. It will allow you to deploy smart contracts into the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystem in minutes and for pennies. No need to build your own blockchain or win a parachain slot.

Gear’s unique advantage is in the implementation of the actor model within the Substrate framework. The actor model enables Asynchronous contract execution, persistent memory for immutable programs, and a minimal, intuitive, robust API interface.
