RenBridge now allows user to transfer BTC, ZEC, BCH, and DOGE to Polygon, with more assets to be supported in coming time.

Ren is also partnering with projects within the Polygon ecosystem (Quickswap, Curve, etc.) to enable renAssets trading.

FlashDEX mistX

Alchemist Coin @_alchemistcoin

mistX.io - the world's first FlashDEX powered by Flashbots One of the most important problems of the Ethereum network, and DeFi in particular, is the damage caused by the actions of front-running bots and the associated crisis of MEV.

alchemistcoin.medium.comIntroducing mistXWith that ethos in mind we are proud to announce our next DeFi product mistX! Created by Alchemists, powered by FlashBots, driven by $Mist You’ve all heard the rumours, so let us to confirm…

Alchemist, a community of DeFi builders, launched mist.io to enable non-technical users to use flashbots on AMMs and avoid losses caused by front-running bots, as well as avoid gas fees.

MistX will only charge users when they make successful exchanges. This is similar to the gasless swaps we reported on yesterday for Sushiswap.
