The multi-chain universe is on the horizon: the future is interoperable. As we can see with wBTC, renBTC, and other wrapped Bitcoins being used on the Ethereum blockchain, people want to move assets from one chain to another for trading, convenience, and arbitrage opportunities. However, there is no decentralized exchange on which to have access to a multitude of assets existing on numerous chains. Networks like Polkadot offer us the opportunity to make this possible.
This is why we are building Polkaswap — a DEX focused on interoperability to connect the rest of the crypto ecosystem to Polkadot.

The SORA, Polkaswap, and Fearless Wallet projects are all closely related as they form integral parts of the SORA ecosystem. That is why development status updates are released every two weeks for these three projects, in one convenient place. Enjoy the April 9, 2021, Dev update! If you missed the previous ones:

Liquidity 101
The term liquidity isn’t specific to crypto, but it’s an important concept in the crypto world. This post will provide insights into liquidity within centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges, and specifically, Polkaswap. So let’s start with Liquidity: what is it?
A highly liquid asset is one that can be easily sold (liquidated) at its fair market value, whereas an illiquid asset is one that can’t be sold without significant effort, a loss of value, or both. Similarly, a highly liquid market for a particular asset is one with lots of (fair) buy and sell orders circulating.

To bootstrap the SORA and Polkaswap ecosystems at launch, three different strategic bonuses in PSWAP tokens will be available, consisting of approximately 64% of the total PSWAP supply. Previously, strategic bonuses for providing liquidity on Polkaswap and for buying XOR…

The Main Considerations When Migrating to and Choosing a DEX
As crypto enters the mainstream, the ways in which one can begin investing and trading have multiplied. The most common way to date has been using a centralized exchange (CEX) like Binance, Kraken, or CoinBase. Recently, however, decentralized exchanges (DEX) have grown rapidly in popularity. This post will provide insights into the changing exchange landscape and some key considerations to take into account when choosing an exchange. First, we’ll run through the reasons someone might choose a DEX over a CEX, and highlight some criteria to help you decide which…

The SORA testnet has been updated to support token transfers across our HASHI Ethereum bridge, so now test tokens can be moved from the Ethereum Rinkeby testnet to the SORA v2/Polkaswap testnet.
The HASHI bridge can be tested at testbridge.polkaswap.io.
Testnet contract addresses on Rinkeby:
VAL 0x725c6b8cd3621eba4e0ccc40d532e7025b925a65
XOR 0xdc1c024535118f6de6d999c23fc31e33bc2cafc9
PSWAP 0x89801864f50d2ee5e71253f73470244fbf0d6206
Bridge 0x4ff646bff7884f118406aa4beebd9e10de406603
To be able to use the SORA testnet bridge, you need to have an account on the SORA testnet with some test XOR. …
