MintSwap Roadmap: Paving the Way for a Vibrant Future

MintSwap, the pioneering decentralized exchange (DEX) and NFT marketplace on the Mint Blockchain, is set to redefine the landscape of digital asset trading and financial innovation.

Today, we’re thrilled to unveil our roadmap for 2024 and beyond, a future filled with innovation, growth, and exciting new features that will revolutionize the NFT experience. This comprehensive roadmap outlines our ambitious plans, highlighting key milestones and upcoming features that will shape the future of NFTs and DeFi on Mint Blockchain.

(The items within each quarter are not listed in chronological order and may be subject to change based on development progress and market conditions.)

2024 Q1
Early Establishment of MintSwap Protocol
In this phase, we focused on the foundational development of the MintSwap protocol, laying the groundwork for the DEX and NFT marketplace. The Mission of MintSwap is set at the very beginning — to facilitate seamless and innovative NFT and DeFi experiences, and the decision to concentrate on Mint Blockchain stemmed from a shared vision between the two teams. Mint Blockchain’s focus on NFT innovation and infrastructure provided the perfect foundation for MintSwap to create a user-friendly and feature-rich marketplace that caters specifically to the needs of the NFT community.

2024 Q2
Launch of MintSwap
On May 5th 2024, MintSwap was introduced to the public for the first time with a detailed explanation of its purpose, features, and the problems it aims to solve within the Mint Blockchain ecosystem.

This marks the official unveiling of MintSwap to the world.

Launch of MintSwap Public Testnet:
Prior to opening the platform to the public, a comprehensive audit was conducted to identify and address any potential vulnerabilities or security risks within the MintSwap smart contracts and infrastructure.
A public testing phase was carried out in early May of 2024, allowing users to interact with the platform, provide feedback, and help identify potential issues, ensuring a more secure and robust platform before launch on Mint Mainnet.
Launch of MintSwap NFT Marketplace on Mint Mainnet
The NFT marketplace went live on June 4th 2024, enabling users to buy, sell, and trade NFTs on the Mint Blockchain. This is a significant milestone for MintSwap and the wider NFT community as it opened the doors to a new era of digital asset trading on Mint Blockchain.

Launch of MintSwap DEX on Mint Mainnet
The launch of the DEX on June 20th, 2024, not only enhanced the trading capabilities within the Mint ecosystem, but also set a new standard for user-centric DEX platforms. The introduction of concentrated liquidity, combined with a suite of user-friendly tools, positioned MintSwap as a driving force for innovation and liquidity within the Mint Blockchain.

2024 Q3
Official Launch of MintSwap native asset — MS404 & MST
MintSwap native asset, MS404, is a groundbreaking collection of assets built on the innovative ERC-404 protocol. With a total supply of 10,000 pieces, MS404 offers holders a range of unique benefits and utilities, further solidifying MintSwap’s commitment to innovation and community engagement within the Mint Blockchain ecosystem.

The MS404 Minting Event, held from July 24th to 29th, 2024, concluded successfully with all 3,000 available MS404 NFTs being minted. The remaining 7,000 NFTs have been strategically allocated within the MintSwap ecosystem to serve as incentives and contribute to the platform’s seamless functionality.

Launch of MintSwap Mining Program
MintSwap mining program was started on 13th Aug 2024, offering users a chance to earn MST tokens through two main avenues: Liquidity Providing (LP) and Trade-to-Earn. The program will run for 12 months, distributing a total of 6,000 MS404 NFTs (equivalent to 60 million MST).

LP mining rewards: allocated based on contributions to specific pools.
Trading Rewards: earned by users proportional to trading fees generated on the DEX and NFT marketplace (for specific token pairs and whitelisted NFT collections).
Strategic Partnerships for Mutual Prosperity
MintSwap is committed to building a thriving ecosystem through strategic partnerships both within and beyond the Mint Blockchain.

Within the Mint ecosystem, we maintain a close relationship with Mint, actively participating in events and initiatives to promote growth and adoption. As part of the Mint Expedition event, MS404 holders will be eligible for $MINT token airdrops, further strengthening the connection between MintSwap and the broader community.

Beyond the Mint ecosystem, MintSwap is actively seeking collaborations with top-tier NFT projects, NFTFi platforms, lending protocols, on-chain storage providers, and cornerstone communities. These partnerships will enable us to expand our reach, enhance user experience, and drive innovation within the NFT space.

2024 Q4
Launch of Synergy Effects in Mint Blockchain NIP Asset Protocols
NIP (NFT Improvement Proposal) is an innovative NFT asset protocol on Mint Blockchain for Web3 developers to freely initiate the creation of NFT standards and propose NFT proposals. MintSwap expands its capabilities by supporting NIP and other new NFT protocols and standards, fostering innovation within the ecosystem.

MST Listing on Other Platforms
To further increase the accessibility and liquidity of MST, we plan to list it on other decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and centralized exchanges (CEXs). This will allow more users to easily acquire and trade $MST, fueling its growth and adoption.

Launch of MS404 Staking Protocol
This initiative further solidified MintSwap’s commitment to rewarding 100% of its income to the users by introducing a staking mechanism for holders of MS404. By staking their MS404 assets, users can earn ETH tokens generated from trading fees throughout the MintSwap platform, creating a more engaging and rewarding ownership experience.

2025 Q1 — Q2
Launch of AI Features
MintSwap is leveraging cutting-edge technology to create a more intelligent and responsive environment that caters to the individual needs and preferences of its users. In Q4 2024, MintSwap will integrate artificial intelligence (AI) across various aspects of the platform. The goal is to create a more personalized, intuitive, and efficient experience for users interacting with both the DEX and NFT marketplace.

Multi-Chain Support
To expand our reach and impact, we plan to integrate MintSwap with additional blockchains beyond Mint, providing a truly interoperable NFT and DeFi experience.

MintSwap Incubation Program
We’re dedicated to fostering innovation and growth within the Mint Blockchain ecosystem. Our upcoming incubation program will provide support and resources to promising NFT projects, helping them launch and thrive on MintSwap. This initiative will further enrich the platform’s offerings and attract a wider range of creators and collectors.

Looking Ahead: A Bright Future on Mint Blockchain
This is just the beginning of our journey. The MintSwap team is committed to continuous innovation, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. We envision a future where NFTs are seamlessly integrated into everyday life, revolutionizing how we interact with digital assets. We are excited to continue building alongside our vibrant community, empowering creators and collectors alike to shape the future of NFTs on Mint Blockchain.
