Airdrop DApp development is drawing to a close and goes to the alpha stage.

We developed the Amara Airdrop DApp to realize the intelligent distribution and claim of airdrops for users. Users can log in to the Airdrop DApp,verify whether they have the qualification of airdrops and claim the airdrop without paying a handling fee.

At present, the development of Airdrop DApp is drawing to a close and entering the internal testing session. After the test, it will be launched timely with the result of the airdrop.

AmaraLend v1 has been improved and continues to optimize

After the launch of the AmaraLend beta, the Amara technical team immediately started the development of the AmaraLend v1 version. According to the suggestions from Beta, AmaraLend v1 has been improved and continues to optimize the interest rate model and the liquidation model.

AmaraLend v1 is expected to officially meet users in 2021 Q4.

The Amara team is doing the research and demonstration of AmaraPay. It will be a milestone in Amara’s development

AmaraPay is another important product of Amara besides AmaraLend and AmaraLink. AmaraPay focuses on the payment aspect of DeFi. It is determined to become the top underlying infrastructure payment tool in the Polkadot ecosystem and truly bridge the gap between traditional finance and digital finance. Currently, the Amara team is still demonstrating the lending through technical research. It will officially be a milestone.

The AmaraLend NFT point system will be released after AmaraLend v1 goes online.

The AmaraLend NFT is made according to Zapper’s point system. Users can earn points and improve the level by doing daily or weekly tasks. Users can receive NFT after reaching the corresponding level. Users don’t need to burn their tokens to mint NFT, but receive it with a negligible handling fee being charged.

For now, Amara NFT is still in the finalization stage of the design. NFT is an important tag of Amara core users, and also an important passport to the graded rights of the platform. Amara NFT holders will be considered as the core members .

Ambassadors who have already passed the 1st round selection and perform well will enjoy the opportunity to directly get NFT without using points.
