Discover DeFi on Avalanche with Avascan
We already saw some DEXs make their way into Avalanche, but this is just the beginning: few weeks ago, we launched the DeFi Avalanche Telegram community to track and discuss all-things-DeFi on Avalanche: over 400 members already joined!
This is what users tell about the group:
“You’ve found a gem group”
“This is definitely a more civilized level headed chat”
“It’s impossible to keep up with the trading channel. You can have a real discussion here, there’s been some good chat & insights”
”Even though I haven’t been able to check as often as I like, there’s always solid analysis & commentary here & now one of my pinned groups in my AVAX folder. cheers!”
This is the best avalanche group that I know of. At least people make sense and actually communicate!!
This week in Avalanche
AnySwap has integrated Avalanche for its Cross-Chain Asset Bridge. Additionally FRAX is now available on Avalanche via this bridge, any token can apply to join.

This week in DeFi on Avalanche
We’re starting to summarize what’s hot in the DeFi Avalanche group every week. Join the Telegram group to know more every day.
Elk Finance implemented the Impermanent Loss Protection; a big milestone on their roadmap as they directly say. All the details: Click here.
Next on Snowball: the team members came to chat with the users, directly asking them for feedback and proposals. And not to forget they prepared the s3F Stable Vault, a triple token pool between FRAX, TUSD and USDT. For all the details: Click here.
Benqi did a second round of registrations; the first was really popular, so much that the team opened up again for round two. Round three? What do you think?
Later in the news: Bittrex Global this week completed its integration with the Avalanche network, enabling the AVAX wallet and coming with three pairs: BTC-AVAX, ETH-AVAX and USDT-AVAX.
There are few projects launching soon: Baguette, Sherpa Cash and Gondola Finance. Baguette is coming on May 5th, a complete french community. Parlez vous français?

What’s new on Avascan
- With the new page Burned Fees you can now see all the AVAX burned on the C-Chain and on the X-chain with a lot of information. Next update of the page will be released next week.
Explore the Road
We’re working on a lot of new improvements and special pages to show more data about the new Dapps and tokens:
- Bridge: a very complex but comprehensive page that shows the flow of value from Avalanche to external blockchains and vice versa. Chainbridge page should be live sometime in April, with more bridge-specific pages coming in the future.
- DEX: we know that there’s an official dashboard to check the liquidity pool and pairs, but we’re working on a detailed contract page that highlights useful information about burning rate, transactions, etc. It should be live in May, and more specific pages will come in the future.
- Bridged tokens: a special page that shows granular data about official ARC-20 versions of ERC-20 tokens ported from Ethereum. Expected release: June 2021
- NFTs: lists and details pages dedicated to Non-Fungible Tokens, both on X-Chain and C-Chain. Expected release: Q2 2021
- Supply: a more comprehensive page with details on AVAX supply and flows of the native token. Expected release: Q2 2021
Bonus: we’re working on a new small section in the C-Chain Overview page named Hot Dapps Right Now. You guess what’s that about ;) It should be live veeery soon.
And, of course, we’re also continuing the development of Norge 2.0, that will take a few months to be completed.
We want to hear your feedback: head to our Changemap page to request new features or report bugs, and start a conversation in the #feedback channel in our Discord server or in the Telegram community.
Thank you for reading, see you next week!
