Pontem 2023 Roadmap

From NFT swaps to concentrated DEX liquidity, let’s take a look at all the juicy, innovative, and pirate-approved features you can look forward to this year.

Pontem Network is proud of our accomplishments to date: for example, we were first to release a production-ready Aptos DEX and an Aptos Ledger app. In addition, Pontem Wallet is the first Aptos wallet to feature native integrations like liquid staking with Ditto and borrowing with Aries. But our plans go far beyond that — and the updated roadmap is proof.

Pontem Wallet

Android app (Q1)

While the Pontem Wallet app for iOS has enjoyed a lot of success, we haven’t forgotten about Android users either. In fact, 75% of all smartphones in the world are Androids. Expect all your favorite wallet features, including the upcoming Liquidswap native integration and NFT support.

NFT support on mobile (Q2)

We know that you all want to view and manage your NFTs on mobile, and we’re putting the finishing touches on that. Soon, the NFT management tab in the iOS app will become familiar, and eventually in the Android app as well, as soon as it’s released.

EVM integrations (Q3)

Don’t you wish that you could add Ethereum, Polygon and other EVM chains to Pontem Wallet? Well, soon you’ll be able to! Like in MetaMask, but better — because you’ll have Aptos in the same wallet.

Liquidswap native app and more native integrations (Q1-Q2)

With native dApp integrations, you can interact with Aptos dApps from within Pontem Wallet itself. For example, you can use APT liquid staking with Ditto Finance without having to visit Ditto’s dApp page.

Many of you have been asking for a Liquidswap integration — and we’ll deliver it very soon. Trading APT, USDT, USDC, SOL and many other tokens on Aptos in the wallet will be as easy as sending crypto!

We are working on adding several more native dApps to Pontem Wallet. Moreover, as a special treat, we’ll give all Aptos developers a new technical ability, so keep and eye on this space.

Liquidswap

Swap widget (already live)

We’ve just released v.0.1.1 of the Liquidswap widget, which is a tool that allows developers to integrate basic swaps into their Aptos dApps. It supports many wallets and can be embedded into any frontend stack. We plan to release several updates to the widget in 2023, including improved UI/UX, swap multi-routing, and APR display.

Noon Release: daily NFT auctions (Q2)

This is possibly the most exciting NFT product to launch on Aptos so far. Imagine: every 12 or 24 hours, there is a new auction round where you can bid on and win an NFT. It’s completely decentralized and fair, and it never stops.

Concentrated liquidity and rebalancing vaults (Q2-Q3)

When Uniswap v3 introduced concentrated liquidity, it was a revolution in DeFi. Being able to choose the price ranges for where your funds are deployed provides for much higher capital efficiency and income from trading fees. As a result, Uniswap V3 was the single most used Ethereum smart contract in 2022.

It was only a matter of time until concentrated liquidity arrived on Aptos. It’s a challenging, technically complex project, but Pontem welcomes challenges.

The rebalancing vault feature is complementary to concentrated liquidity. To maximize earnings, providers have to rebalance their positions often, adjusting the price range. This takes time and expertise, so ideally you’d want to automate the process. That’s what rebalancing vaults do: they manage liquidity automatically to maximize the yield.

NFT swaps (Q3-Q4)

Liquidswap will allow Pontem users to sell Aptos NFTs directly to each other, without going through a third party like a marketplace. We’ll make it available for Pontem collections such as Space Pirates, Dark Ages, and others that we have in the pipeline, as well as for all other NFT collections issued on Aptos.
