Overview
BEPSwap Development
The team are working on 5 parallel streams of effort to deliver BEPSwap, which remains the primary focus.
Cosmos-powered SDK StateChain
Cross-chain infrastructure
Threshold Signature Scheme implementation
Front-end Integration for BEPSwap
Other development activities
StateChain
- Refactor chain to aggregate all pools into one pool, move pool address to be dynamically set by validators.
- Build refund logic and criteria (incorrect memo or asset)
- Build admin transaction logic allowing global variables to be set by validators.
- Build globalSlipLimit and tradeSlipLimit which adds a limit to slip, and refunds users if the trade goes over. This prevents front-running or unexpected trades.
Cross-chain Infra
- Audit and test the txIn array generation by the Observer.
- Audit and test the txOut array generation to be sent to Signer.
- Connect Observer to the Statechain.
- Skip json formatting so that transactions sent to statechain are already correctly formatted.
Threshold Signatures
- Refactored code to complete Binance Chain multi-send transactions
- Benchmark and test for 3 of 4 and 8 of 11.
- Deploy and test.

Other Development
RUNEVault continues to be improved since it is serving as a vital testing ground for BEPSwap. This week the following was deployed:
- THORChainBot was launched with basic news, info and RuneVault Leaderboard metrics.
- Tip Bot was added, with tipping and withdrawing working.
- Transaction and tipping history built.
THORChain
THORChain’s bridging infrastructure is heavily dependant on the success of the TSS implementation on BEPSwap, so BEPSwap will deliver invaluable learning experience for the team. ASGARDEX will borrow heavily from the UX feedback from BEPSwap as well, so it is important to focus heavily on a successful launch of BEPSwap.
Upcoming
This week has the following activities planned:
- Statechain: complete integration to handle test cases.
