We've successfully partnered with @kucoin to integrate Polkadot AssetHub and enable USDT support. This marks the third CEX to support AssetHub, and we anticipate more to follow suit.

@Chainflip and @subwalletapp doing god’s work! The Polkadot eco is launching easier ways of onboarding the network by the day. Try out this smooth UX to diversify your ETH bags into DOT. Make sure not to leave money on the table and mint vDOT with @Bifrost once you’re at it 😉

Bringing native cross-chain swaps to the @Polkadot ecosystem is a no-brainer, and Subwallet is taking advantage of that. Swap native $ETH to $DOT without having to leave their wallet!

This future of unified infra for the whole eco will require treasury resources, improved ecosystem tooling and significant coordination between service providers and eco teams. Velocity will spearhead this initiative to enable a robust, safe, and frictionless token economy 🤝

As we enter Polkadot 2.0, multiple initiatives are focused on reducing the barriers of entry for builders to access Polkadot's blockspace. In the near future, Polkadot blockspace will provide not only shared security but also shared infrastructure 🚀

At Velocity Labs, we're focused on bringing market infrastructure to Polkadot. We're firm believers that dApps/Parachains should have access to CEXs, On/Off Ramps, Bridges, and Custody solutions from day 1. This is especially crucial for Polkadot's core centric roadmap...

Previously, parachain teams had to individually search for integrations as if they were standalone chains. Parity provided infra for DOT on the RC, but lacked mechanisms to support the ecosystem's infra needs. This added to the long list of reqs. for parachain teams to go live.

As it currently stands, @Polkadot faces several challenges with regards to tooling, accessibility and products within its ecosystem in order for DeFi to thrive. If we coordinate and make these all possible, then the Polkadot blockspace will be unleashed.

@ThomasR_SupDup We're on it 🧠 CEX UX for XCM tokens is a hard problem in general, we hope that with demand growth this will become much more pressing to solve! Till then, we'll need to rely on user-to-user education like the one you do :)
