  • Additional Debugging

20% Fixed Income on 1wallet

  • Transfer UST from Harmony to a specified Terra address over a token transfer bridge (Terra bridge for now).
  • one-anchor-bot keeps a record of token lock events and deposit contract events on Harmony.
  • one-anchor-bot will run the deposit_stable{} ExecuteMsg on the Anchor money market contracts and receives aUST.
  • aUST is sent back to the original harmony depositor address over a token transfer bridge.

2021/11/07

20% Fixed Income on 1wallet

  • ethAnchor contracts are now migrated to Harmony, it is oneAnchor now
  • oneAnchor repo is now on Harmony's Github
  • At this point I need support from the Curve team to be able to create the aUST pools, they have been a little unresponsive, I will keep pushing.

Crosschain API

  • The App will be now temporarily named Endless Bridge, repo will be in Github this week. If the name sticks and/or does not is objected by core team or the community, it will stay.
  • Heavy Debugging of Dapp-backend integration
  • AWS deployment delayed until debugging complete
  • Improved UI

  • Crypto Plaza is hosting a dinner/event in Bogota with a who-is-who of ethColombia and Devcon Colombia, they invited to sponsor the dinner. Also they want to bring Spanish devs to the Dreamers program
  • Meeting with AgroToken they have preliminary agreed to deploy a token in Harmony given that the technical aspect is cleared on their side and the CEO gives a final approach, I think we are 60% in this process
  • DigitalBridge meeting, they want to keep pushing a 2FA solution for a Harmony wallet
  • Meeting with Cook Finance on "Future of NFT" event at Stanford, they are about to launch in Harmony and we started the grant discussion

2021/11/15

  • beta is live in testnet, more debugging is needed, need to find the right AWS to make it public for testing by the community in testnet
  • Some UI improvements
  • image

  • Mainnet released date tentative for Dec 15

Crosschain API

Integration with Curve contracts in progress, many and varied kind of issues

BD

  • Meetings related with ethBarcelona
  • Dreamers Miami and PadawanDAO planning

2021/11/22

Crosschain API

  • Front-end 98% ready, some integration tasks pending, lots of testing
  • some changes for mainnet are being tested

20% Fixed Income on 1wallet

  • No curve contracts in testnet, so migration to mainnet was necessary
  • Curve contracts in Harmony identified and integration tests with curve contracts in mainnet complete.
  • bots development re-started using the new contracts.

BD

  • Spanish community meetings
  • DCentral Miami planning (meetings with AgroToken and two potential NFT projects)

2021/12/06 (2 Weeks Update)

Crosschain API

  • Dapp is not working consistently in mainnet, we think this is mainly because natural delays and user confusion/mistakes mostly on the DEX, what this is causing is that some transactions are never completed, they will fail in the DEX swap (sometimes because there are no gas fees) or even on the bridging. One common issues is, the user will have wrapped asset in their wallet, so even though the bridge fails because she does not have enough gas in eth, the transaction will proceed to swap and even bridge into BSC. The only solution for this is a bot, fairly similar to the one I am developing for oneAnchor, so I am doing that development now with this in mind, so in the short-term both projects will be the same.
  • Minor UI improvements.
  • Improved Manager Contracts are almost completed, the intention of these is to reduce the amount of metamask calls

20% Fixed Income on 1wallet

  • Dry runs with aUST contracts are working, this means that we can make this happen without wormhole or anything similar
  • API calls are being developed, and will be in Github very soon. These calls are wrappers over the RPC calls and will make easier for 3rd party devs to integrate. Very similar to crosschain API
  • After discussions with Sef wallet, we are planning a launch in Sef in addition to 1Wallet, so I am in process of reviewing their github.
  • Bots are being developed, some alpha testing have proven successful, this will take 90% of the work from now on.
  • A sketch design for manager contracts is done, now needs validation and planning.

BD

  • Very successful week in Miami, a lot of engagement with multiple projects
