Featuring Atlendis in March 2022
- Atlendis DeFi lending platform partners with X-Margin, by Unlock Media
“While the Atlendis protocol focuses on the financial aspect of the platform to make it fair and fully functional, it cannot vouch for the reputation of the borrowers involved. We are excited to partner with X-Margin, as onboarding X-Margin’s credit evaluation will provide more information on borrowers without revealing sensitive data, and thus attract lenders with verification that loans will be more secure.”
- Runtime Verification audits Atlendis Protocol, by Runtime Verification
“The audit identified and highlighted some issues along with a number of informative findings. The Atlendis Labs team addressed all the issues and concerns raised during the audit and incorporated all the necessary changes in the smart contracts. Code changes were not part of the scope; however, the team conducted a lightweight best-effort review of a limited number of changes. Users interested in a more detailed and technical explanation about the findings can go over the full report in our GitHub repository.”

- In the continuation of this topic, Atlendis Labs published the first part of a series on public blockchains scaling solutions.
- On the topic of scaling, Forbes published a story on LayerZero Labs‘ latest fundraise where Ryan Zarick, LayerZero Labs’ CTO and Co-founder describes that piece of innovation:
“The firm’s key offering, the LayerZero protocol, which currently operates in beta version, is similar to a messaging layer enabling direct cross-chain communication. You can think of it as a decentralized form of SWIFT, the dominant communications platform used to route $5 trillion worth of daily transactions across its 11,000 member network. For example, with LayerZero, Ethereum applications will now be able to access liquidity on Serum, the decentralized exchange built on Solana.”
