Dexpools Monthly Summary: April 2022 — Dexpools

With our P2P OTC product launch on our first two chains (Metis and Ethereum) and the conclusion of our fundraising campaign in April, our team felt like it only made sense to share an update with our community about our momentum in April and the Dexpools roadmap for the next few months.

A few things we will cover in this update:

Our cumulative fundraise between Copperlaunch, IDO, and private rounds raised $2.5 million in value, which gives us runway to rapidly expand and accelerate our roadmap.

The operational load has been heavier in April than any other month for good reason. Fundraising is just the beginning of our journey to becoming the premiere P2P and Limit Order platform in DeFi, and our team has been busy making sure that the legal, recruiting, training, marketing, and product delivery aspects of Dexpools are 100% ready for us to achieve our goals for 2022.

The team has been hard at work to ensure we are ready for our multi-chain P2P OTC launch coming very soon. Our OTC product is top of mind as we look to improve the experience to serve OTC traders — but we also have two other products in development: Limit Order and NFT Trading.

P2P OTC Trading

  • Focus on improving the onboarding experience (what users see on the dashboard)
  • Open chat testing
  • Back-end architecture to support better analytics in the future
  • Trading contest infrastructure for our next chain launch (what could this be?)

Limit Order

  • Successfully tested Limit Order across several chains
  • UI is 90% complete for our first beta test

NFT Swapping

  • Smart contracts complete
  • User testing in-progress to ensure experience is as smooth as possible
  • Front-end programming started

The strength of a team is one of the most important factors to a startup’s success — and we have been making major moves to recruit and onboard the best of the best.

A quick overview of our hires in the last month:

Business / Ops

  • Berke Sengel — VP of Partnerships
  • Anthony Oko — Operations Director
  • Reptile Presidente — Chief Marketing Officer

Development / Product

  • Philip Acho — Senior Fullstack Engineer
  • Juan Velez — Lead UX/UI Designer
  • Gabriel Cartier — NFT Product Owner / Engineer
  • Jean-Francois Cartier — NFT Blockchain Engineer
  • Lukasz Piliszczuk — Senior Fullstack Engineer

More will be shared on our recent hires very soon!

We are currently looking for a content writer so if you’re interested in joining our team, then please apply.

April has been a big month for us in terms of partnerships, and we will continue to pursue win-win relationships with major chains, decentralized projects, and investors.

Partnerships Announced

The P2P trading ecosystem is thriving, with billions in value traded every month. Our focus over the next months will be on scaling out the OTC platform to serve more chains while optimizing the experience to support deal flow, execution of trades, and integrations.

A few items on our roadmap:

  • Beta testing for Limit Order DEX — May
  • Launch on a chain with more than $10 billion in TVL (announcement coming soon) — Late May
  • A trading competition with thousands in rewards — June
  • CEX listing on a top 10 exchange — June
  • NFT Swapping — Sneakpeaks in June, beta in July
  • DEX integrations and announcements — June
  • Rome Terminal integration — June

Partner integrations will be key to scaling and growth for Dexpools

Marketing is going to support each of these major events. One thing we want to reiterate is that our project does not market our $DXP token without substance behind the marketing. Our stance has always been the same — that we are going to build great infrastructure for the DeFi community, and the $DXP token is 100% tied to the utility of the Dexpools platform.

Thank you,

Dexpools Team

Building The Community and Listening To Our Advocates

Image
Our team has decided to move the date of our IDO to January 12th, 2022 to better support our community and advocates. The Dexpools team wants to thank all the early community members and investors who have been such an integral part of our team so far. Your support has given us the confidence to continue building a great product and moving towards our vision of ‘Creating a limitless ecosystem’ for DeFi. When the community and our ecosystem gives feedback, we want your voice to be heard. When we first set our eyes on the original mid-December IDO date, the milestone was originally part of an ambition fueled by our desire to hit the market as hard as we could, as soon as we could. However, things don’t always go as planned, and anyone that has been in the DeFi space long enough knows that adaptability is a key part of any team’s success. Some major factors we discussed and heard throughout our decision-making process: Community Building Our communities have grown quickly acro

Last Call for Dexpools Open Beta — Dexpools

Image
  Last Call for Dexpools Open Beta — Dexpools Four more days until the end of the Dexpools Open Beta! The beta event will officially end at 11pm UTC on Feb 1, which means there is still time for participants to swap and qualify for $DXP airdrops and the opportunity to be whitelisted for the private sale event prior to IDO. The team has also pushed our latest feature update, which will introduce a variety of features including ‘Asset Explorer’. Asset Explorer allows users to search connected wallets for any token, allowing for discovery of trading opportunities from our community. The introduction of features including partial trades, multi-token acceptance, and other functionality has received positive feedback but we would absolutely love additional feedback on Asset Explorer. We believe it will be valuable to traders looking to create deals, but data from our community will be crucial to determining the usefulness of this new feature. The Dexpools team has also been hard at work behi
