2021-04-21 18:46:46 Introducing the Maiar Exchange MEX snapshot interface

The Maiar Exchange website has been updated to track the progress of the current snapshot cycle and allow anyone to check their claimable MEX balances.

Reminder: we’re in the first snapshot cycle, so no MEX balance data is available yet. The first balance calculations will be displayed after the first weekly snapshot cycle is complete. Closer.

2021-04-20 15:27:43 Mainnet Upgrade: Tokens have been deployed, Activation April 28.

The Elrond Standard Digital Token model embeds token functionality into the Elrond protocol. Tokens on Elrond will have all the properties of existing token standards and several new ones.

Minting tokens on Elrond will be done at negligible costs. Transferring them will be as inexpensive and fast as with native EGLD. This opens a new era for tokens.

Validators are deploying v1.1.50.0 of elrond-go as we speak. The new features will activate in Epoch 272, on April 28, ~14:30 UTC.

Watch the upgrade happen live: https://explorer.elrond.com/

2021-04-19 16:30:25 Maiar Exchange: MEX Snapshots & Claim mechanics

The MEX token is coming. This will be the native fuel and governance token of the Maiar exchange. Every EGLD holder will be able to claim this new token, and be part of the Maiar exchange ecosystem.

The distribution of MEX is a complex process, and we will detail all aspects below.

The short version is this:

• The best action to get more MEX is to have EGLD staked
• Weekly average EGLD staked & holdings considered based on daily snapshots
• Daily snapshots at random times begin April 19
• MEX is claimable in the first half of May

Please find out the important details related to MEX Snapshots & claim mechanics in our latest blogpost:
