Our partner will actively pursue new capital contributions to our PoS economy from their partners and advocate for Elrond technology adoption within their extended business network in Eastern Europe.

Frontier now integrates with the Elrond mainnet! Besides sending and receiving eGold, their DeFi app can be used to watch an address, without having to add its private key. That’s great for getting mobile notifications about your cold wallet staking rewards!

Our partner will continue to add features such as staking for eGold, as well as integrate with DeFi products built on Elrond. eGold is already available in our partner’s Android and will soon be added on iOS.

eGold lists on Japanese-regulated exchange & fiat onramp Liquid

We’re excited to announce that eGold is now listed on Liquid! Liquid is a cryptocurrency exchange operating out of Japan and Singapore, and one of the largest by fiat volume. Its Japanese branch is licensed & regulated by the Japan Financial Services Agency.

eGold will be available for purchase using USD, JPY, EUR, SGD, HKD, and AUD, as well as for trading against USDT and BTC pairs.

Through the new listing, we will leverage Liquid’s strong Japanese presence and its ability of onboarding multiple fiat currencies from most countries around the world, to accelerate the Elrond ecosystem growth by reducing onboarding frictions for new fiat customers.

DELEGATION UPDATE

The new solution has passed testing, and the issue has been solved.

Hard work by the entire team to fix things, and strong support by the Elrond community.

The new delegation ETA is ~45 min, going live at 18:30 UTC.

Big shout out for all your support!

DELEGATION UPDATE

- a lot of transactions are going through, more than 850k EGLD have already been delegated
- many transactions that show as "pending" are actually being executed
- the high load on the system persists and API load still shows issues
- There seem to be some bots that are executing scripts, flooding the network, and attempting to delegate to a wrong contract address
- We continue to work to address the problem, and will soon have a better load balancer
- Will keep updates coming

Thank you for your support! 🛠

DELEGATION UPDATE

>1.1M $EGLD or $8.8M USD delegated despite the API load issues, & TXs keep coming in.

All issues have been noted, and we will prepare a detailed analysis to address them tomorrow.

Important step forward for Elrond today.

Your support goes a long way!

Native eGold via Transak with 0.25-05% fee for bank transfers and 39 fiat currencies with credit card

We’re happy to announce new opportunities to buy eGold directly with fiat from Transak!

You can now get native eGold with zero slippage - the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual cost at which it is executed - and 0.25-0.5% fees, when paying with EUR, GBP & INR via bank transfer.

Transak also offer credit card payment options for 39 fiat currencies which are settled immediately.

When using GBP for bank transfers the transactions are settled in minutes instead of bank days, which is a great option even for non-UK citizens using fiat apps such as Revolut.

PlotX to prototype an iteration of their prediction markets using the Elrond mainnet

PlotX is a non-custodial prediction protocol that enables users to earn rewards on high-yield prediction markets.

Our new partner has already built a working product using the Ethereum blockchain as backend. Our collaboration will initially focus on supporting PlotX to finalize the use case around the deployment of their protocol on the Elrond mainnet and then move to actual deployment once the necessary research is conclusive.

In the future, our unique Smart Contract features such as low fees, upgradability, ownership transfer, or 30% royalties, as well as inexpensive token transfers, will be used to further enhance the PlotX product suite.

“PlotX is a great example of a DeFi project with a working product that is ready for broader adoption. Accelerated growth requires a faster and inexpensive infrastructure, as well as a powerful devkit, all of which we are happy to provide for our partner” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.
