Compound Finance is now on Arbitrum

Defi lending and borrowing giant Compound is now available on the Arbitrum network.

Compound's V3 Arbitrum deployment is confined to a few cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum (ETH), Arbitrum, Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), and GMX.

Polygon Supernets close to production release

Polygon Developers recently announced the release of their Polygon Supernets platform.

The new version, V0.9, will support features like staking, bridge, EIP 1559 support, and more.

Polygon Supernets is a blockchain network allowing developers to create app-specific blockchains.

Appchains are blockchain networks customized to fulfil specific company or application use cases. Developers can use app chains to build high-performance, low-cost blockchain networks.

Uniswap could launch on Base

Three significant contributors to Uniswap, the premier decentralized exchange, have started talks on a possible deployment on Coinbase's Layer 2 blockchain Base.

The proposal said:

The goal is to deploy Uniswap v3 on Base mainnet on day-one of the launch. Given this goal, we are kicking off the RFC process now and hope to get the temperature check up before the mainnet launch and follow up with an onchain vote immediately after deploying on mainnet.

According to the proposal, the main goal of this proposal is to jump into the top DEX spot on Base.

A successful deployment of Uniswap on Base would result in Uniswap becoming the de facto DEX for Base upon launching.

Self-paced learning program started by Base

Coinbase’s layer two solution Base recently released a new self-paced training program for smart contract developers.

Base Camp's curriculum has been designed to provide the skills and knowledge required to write and deploy smart contracts on Base or any EVM-compatible chain, such as Ethereum, Optimism, and others.

Layer 2 Mantle Network merges with BitDAO

BitDAO, the decentralized autonomous organization with a treasury worth over $1.7 billion, has announced its merger with Ethereum layer 2 Mantle Network, a product it financed and helped launch in November last year.

With the new capital infusion, Mantle Network will focus on refining branding and tokenomics, creating a unified product focus before its launch to mainnet, and funding the expansion and broader adoption.

Till next time, have a great weekend!
