Technology/Product Progress

Notes: Zenlink mainly consists of two core parts: Zenlink DEX Protocol and DApp. Zenlink DEX Protocol is the underlying unified and universal cross-chain DEX Protocol, enabling parachains to have DEX functionality and quickly share liquidity with other parachains. Zenlink DEX Protocol includes Module, WASM, and EVM implementations, which are flexible and adaptable, allowing for customizable compositions and interoperability with different DeFi modules.

Zenlink DApp is an interactive front-end product based on Zenlink DEX Protocol to facilitate users using cross-chain DEX without awareness.

DEX Protocol & DEX DApp

  • Zenlink DEX is officially deployed on the Bifrost Polkadot Network! The Bifrost Polkadot Parachain is an extension of its Kusama Parachain, which Zenlink integrates to better serve users of its Polkadot Network and currently supports vsDOT/vDOT/DOT/BNC and more coins and pairs.
  • We are building the Zenlink Deployment Kit, which is a cross-platform (EVM/Substrate/WSAM), decentralized (Apiless), fully open-source rapid deployment kit to help projects with DEX deployment requirements to quickly build their own set of DEX services.
  • We are using Subsquid to refactor on-chain data services, with the ultimate goal of providing a set of on-chain data templates that can be reused and adapted to each parachain in the Polkadot ecosystem.
