Fantom General Update | April 19 2021

Announcements

Your overview of the last two weeks!

Fantom pilots ERP software in Pakistan

Fantom is excited to build a custom, blockchain-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) tool for the Pakistan Punjab Prisons Department. This marks our first project in Pakistan, and is the first digitization project ever in the country.

👉 Announcement

Fantom presenting to the PoliMi Google Developers Student Club

The team presented the Fantom blockchain to members of the Google Developers Student Club of the Polytechnic University of Milan. The event was part of PoliMi blockchain week and other guest projects included Theta, Avalanche and Polkadot.

Fantom x SuperFarm

SuperFarm will bring NFTs to Fantom and allow for cross-chain NFTs swaps. Not only that: there will be exclusive NFT drops and farms for Fantom users.

👉 Announcement

Fantom x Orion Protocol

Fantom is a pilot partner for Orion’s wallet SDK, allowing you to access cross-chain liquidity right from your wallet. Orion aggregates liquidity across DEXs, CEXs, swap pools, and multiple chains.

Fantom is also the first project to join Orion and will provide liquidity for the FTM pool.

👉 Announcement

Welcome @orion_protocol!

With Orion, FTM users will access endless cross-chain liquidity directly from their Fantom wallet.

Orion will also integrate the Fantom into the protocol for near instant transactions and extremely low fees.https://t.co/zoo7OFjcl1

Fantom will be the first project to join Orion Pool, @orion_protocol AMM Solution, and provide liquidity for the FTM pool!

This is the first step of the partnership that will lead to the integration of Orion within the Fantom wallet.https://t.co/V9yVGI5EB1 https://t.co/wZC7rtjMgq

Fantom x Clover

Fantom-based assets will be integrated into the Clover cross-chain DeFi platform, introducing Fantom assets and DeFi applications to the Polkadot ecosystem.

👉 How Clover works and integrates Fantom

SpookySwap launches on Fantom

SpookySwap is the first native DEX on Fantom; you can now swap and provide liquidity on SpookySwap. The SpookySwap team later wants to introduce trader-focused features such as trading charts, order history and limit orders. $BOO tokens will be distributed in the future as well and act as SpookySwap’s governance token.

FTM added on Travala

You can now use mainnet FTM to book travels on travala.com. Until the end of April, you will get a 10% discount when paying with FTM.

Starting today, @travalacom customers can use $FTM mainnet tokens to book travels!

A huge thank you to Travala for the integration and for running a special promotion:

10% discount for hotels and activities booked with $FTM until the end of the month. https://t.co/3baHSZGPSF
