Elrond and Binance Smart Chain integration to enable strategic DeFi interoperability

The opportunity of an interoperable DeFi ecosystem is far greater than the sum of separate individual parts. Specific opportunities enabled by the unique capabilities of distinct blockchains are amplified by the seamless flow of value and global user accessibility.

We are therefore excited to announce that the Elrond Network will be interoperable with the Binance Smart Chain. This will allow the free flow of assets issued on one chain to participate in DeFi opportunities on the other chain.

“The integration with the Binance Smart Chain is meant to significantly increase exposure, accessibility, and value flow between the networks, enabling many creative opportunities for the DeFi ecosystem.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.

The first step of the integration has already been made. eGold can be withdrawn from the Binance CEX as BEP20 EGLD tokens on the Binance Smart Chain. The ongoing collaboration is now focused on enabling the transfer of tokens in a direct manner via a bridge.

Introducing the first eGold cross-chain DeFi experiment with PancakeSwap

DeFi experimentation has been happening more than just around the economical and technological aspects of financial instruments. By employing gamification and relatable symbols such as popular foods, DeFi projects are able to engage with a new audience.

This grows the scope of DeFi beyond traditional finance to include new demographics and capital that will significantly expand the addressable market size.

We are therefore excited about our first such experiment that will be conducted on the Binance Smart Chain together with PancakeSwap!

The event starts on January 27 at 08:00 UTC and yields BEP20 EGLD rewards for participants who lock CAKE tokens for 30 days.

The most significant Elrond Network mainnet upgrade has completed successfully. All deployed features have been activated and soon everyone will be able to get @MaiarApp.

• Smart Contracts can now be deployed on the Elrond mainnet. Developers can write them using familiar tools and programming languages. They are inexpensive to deploy and use, and offer perhaps the best experience in the space.

• Meta-transactions are now possible. A relayer can package a request as a blockchain transaction and send it on behalf of the requester. Users will be able to use blockchain without owning any crypto, pay for fees with tokens, etc, resulting in a much improved UX.

• The new Arwen VM has significant performance improvements and an optimized gas model for most opcodes, resulting in more efficient gas usage and further decresed transaction costs.

• The upgrade was completed in 3 consecutive iterations, during which our mainnet validators and extended validators community was extremely reponsive and supportive.

Big thanks for all the efforts to the entire team and to our ambitious validator community. 🙌🏻 🛠

Increasing Interoperable Liquidity Flows: Elrond’s eGold Now Available On OpenOcean

OpenOcean is building a platform that enables tokens to be traded against liquidity on multiple chains and exchanges.

The platform connects to centralized exchanges like Binance and Coinbase, and to DEXs on Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain such as Uniswap or PancakeSwap.

It enables traders to find the best price and lowest slippage on all available CEXs and DEXs, and even arbitrage between them.

“The increased market exposure coming through OpenOcean’s compelling user experience has the potential to broaden the horizon of opportunities for eGold and the Elrond ecosystem” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.

The platform is currently integrated with Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain and Ontology. Our ongoing collaboration thus features listing of EGLD BEP20, and will further explore integrating OpenOcean with the Elrond mainnet, making use of the unique performance capabilities of Elrond, that could result in significant product and features enhancements for OpenOcean.

Enhanced DeFi interoperability: eGold swaps enabled on the Binance bridge

The interoperability between the Elrond Network and the Binance Smart Chain makes a significant step forward. eGold tokens can now be swapped between native EGLD <> BEP20 EGLD versions, using the Binance Bridge.

The integration builds on the already existing swap method through the Binance Exchange and adds a convenient avenue for people looking to convert tokens in a more direct manner.

This integration is important for the Elrond ecosystem as it enables eGold holders to engage more easily with DeFi opportunities on the Binance Smart Chain.

iOS update: expedite review in process

Great news! We have received confirmation from Apple that the latest Maiar build is being processed as an "expedite review". This means our request has been acknowledged and will soon be processed.

We have received a confirmation from Apple that the iOS build will be processed with an "expedite review" priority.

Looking forward to receiving the final confirmation in the next hours, once the review is done.

Our next update will follow at 22:00 UTC.

Thank you.

Maiar update

The app has been approved and we have silently released both iOS and Android versions.

There's a huge registration interest, causing a backend limitation.

Team is on deck, working hard to scale things.

We have 10,000+ new accounts that have generated 40,000+ transactions. All without any official launch announcement.

This is what adoption looks like. It's just the warm up.

Root cause identified, solution in progress. Will share an update once the problem is solved.

Insane interest, thank you for the support!

Maiar softlaunch update.

14,000+ accounts created, 56,000+ transactions sent, in the last 5 hours. New users coming in every second. This is adoption. And we've not even started.

Live transaction progress: https://explorer.elrond.com/transactions

Grateful for all the useful feedback received. Rootcause analysis shows a few important areas to improve. We're specifically focusing on the pareto optimal issues.

1. Infinite request loops in onboarding
2. SMS confirmation delays
3. Import wallet bug
4. Backend module scaling

5 AM here and things are still in progress. Next update coming in a few hours. Once fixes are in place, we are ready for blastoff. Insane positive energy coming from the Elrond community.

You guys rock!

Here's a short update on why the Maiar launch is a big deal

First, we've seen an incredible community response! 37k unique accounts, with mapped DNS address, 148k transactions, in 12 hours, with a “soft launch”. All organic. People sharing the app with friends and family. One word: amazing!

Second, it's our utmost priority to solve the bugs found, improve the registration bandwidth limitation, and scale speed of $EGLD purchases. Key problems known will be addressed in 2 releases. One today, one tomorrow.

With those done, we should be able to easily scale 100x from here.

Startups are about growth. We're growing at 1 account per second. At 10x the growthrate, we'd reach 1 billion in ~3.2 years.

And we are ecstatic to see this type of excitement and demand. The people around the world need a new way of transferring and exchanging value. Maiar: let people store, transfer and exchange value. Globally. inexpensively.

With Maiar, we're about to discover the true meaning of hypergrowth. We’ve not even unveiled our unique vision and features for Maiar. It’s day 1. In retrospect, it will seem inevitable.

Thank you for your insane support!

Scalable data streams for Elrond Smart contracts via Razor Network oracles

The Internet of Money will interconnect multiple blockchains and centralized systems. And it will be trustless, thanks in large part to decentralized oracles - services that verify and send data to a blockchain from any off-chain source.

We’re therefore happy to announce that Elrond smart contracts will receive trustworthy off-chain data via the decentralized Razor Network oracles.

“Applications operating at an internet-scale on Elrond will require off-chain data to be delivered as fast as the blockchain can process them. We look forward to seeing Razor Network act as a swift data funnel for Elrond smart contracts.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.
