Weekly Dev Update #15 (03/10/2021)

4 days until the launch of SiennaSwap!!! 🚀 🚀🚀

Meanwhile this week the following has been happening:
-SiennaSwap front end tweaks
-Front end testing
-Mainnet nodes are ready for launch provided by ChainOfSecrets.org
-More work on SiennaSwap 2.0
-More work on SiennaLend
-More work on internal libraries
-Marketing preparation and activation. More volume will ramp up soon

Here are some of the PR coverage about the launch of SiennaSwap so far:
-“Top Upcoming Crypto Events” — https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/cryptocurrency-news/top-upcoming-crypto-events-fractal-mainnet-launch-october-week-2/
-CryptoFomo covers the upcoming launch of SiennaSwap (go to 8:38–10:17): https://youtu.be/wdf6V7-BVM0?t=518&
-SiennaSwap launch news on Odaily in China: https://odaily.com/newsflash/261211
-Monty Munford, Chief Evangelist, went to speak about SiennaSwap at CityAM’s crypto conference: https://twitter.com/lilycsrj/status/1443590888941228038?s=20

                                                      SiennaSwap comparison with other DEXs:
                                                    
*SiennaSwap has private swaps in the sense it’s front-running resistant and that you can’t query peoples’ transaction history from the pairs.

High yield + love for the Monero community
At launch there will be high yield for early birds so make sure you’re ready!
More info on eligible reward pairs coming shortly. All we can say is that Sienna loves Monero. There will be high yield for sXMR pairs on SiennaSwap!
All you need to do is to convert XMR into sXMR on the Secret Monero Bridge.

                                                    
Stay tuned for more information but here is a small teaser in the meantime(more eligible pairs might come). 👀

That’s it for this time. See you next week!

Sienna lists on PancakeSwap

Sienna Network, a privacy-first DeFi protocol built on Secret Network has listed on PancakeSwap (SIENNA/BNB) which is possible due to the newly announced wrapped SIENNA token on Binance Smart Chain.

The token is a 1:1 mirror of the native SIENNA token (SNIP-20) taking advantage of the Secret Network bridge to Binance Smart Chain.
Users who prefer Binance Smart Chain and want to earn liquidity provider fees can bring liquidity to the Sienna ecosystem by providing liquidity in the BNB-SIENNA pair on PancakeSwap.
PancakeSwap is the fastest growing DEX on BSC and was chosen by Sienna due to its size and growth rate, and forms a key milestone in Sienna’s plan to achieve true cross-chain availability.

Listing on PancakeSwap will allow users who prefer BSC to move back and forth between Binance Smart Chain and Secret Network effortlessly using the bridge.

The liquidity pair on Pancake is: BNB/SIENNA

Where to find it:

Sienna launches wrapped token on Binance Smart Chain

Sienna Network, a decentralized privacy-first DeFi platform built on Secret Network, today launched its wrapped BSC-token on Binance Smart Chain— find the token address at the end of this post.
This is another step, following the similar launch of the ERC-20 wrapped SIENNA token earlier this year, in Sienna Networks strategy to be fully available across multiple chains followed by additional bridges e.g. to Polkadot and Terra later.
This makes SIENNA available to users in the fast growing Binance Smart Chain ecosystem, and will be followed by listings on BSC focused exchanges
The goal is for SIENNA to available across multiple blockchain ecosystems, widening the access to Sienna’s privacy preserving products built on Secret Network that is launching soon.

You can bridge SIENNA from Secret Network to SIENNA on Binance Smart Chain and back on https://bridge.scrt.network 🌉

Weekly Dev Update #10 (22/08/2021)

Here are the latest developments for Sienna.

As mentioned in the previous development update the pre report from Certik was received. Changes were submitted a few days after and now awaiting the final audit report for the final go before launch.
Expecting the final audit report in the coming week.

This week has been used to optimize the deploy scripts for testnet (making it faster and easier to test new deployments in the future across all contracts).

The final SiennaSwap version (as per final commit that Certik is currently reviewing) is expected to be deployed on testnet early next week to be tested with the front end.
After some front end tweaks and a few days testing with the front end a final launch date will be set — which should be very soon.

Here’s what else has been happening:
-More work on SiennaSwap 2.0 front end;
-More work on SiennaLend;
-More work on the secret product that will be a surprise when launched. A few features left to be implemented for the smart contracts, and then it’s ready for audit submission. All we can say now is that it will be great for the Secret ecosystem!

Getting close 🚀 Until next time!

Weekly Dev Update #09 (15/08/2021)

In this week’s update it’s getting much closer to the launch of SiennaSwap.
Pre-report from Certik was received August 11th where no major issues were identified.
Two minor issues and eight informal issues were found, which is now being implemented with an ETA for Monday 16th or Tuesday 17th.
Once resubmitted to Certik early next week the final testnet version will be deployed and tested thoroughly with the front end - and then a launch date will be set.

-Dark mode UI/UX for SiennaSwap 2.0 completed.
-More work on SiennaLend
-Smart contracts 80% complete for a secret product that will remain secret until launched 🤫
-Claim panel for private sale investors was launched

Until next time! 🚀

Weekly Dev Update #08 (08/08/2021)

As described in last week’s development report, the rewards code was submitted to Certik which in return said the pre-report will most likely be ready around Monday August 9th.
If the pre-report turns out fine then a launch date can be set.

Weekly Dev Update #06 (25/07/2021)

In this week’s development update we share more news about the fix for the rewards logic and many of the other exciting developments going on.
Simulation of rewards logic has been made with 10.000 users in testing. The logic for the rewards will be shared openly with the community once completed.

Priorities remaining for the rewards:
-Adding the new cooldown feature;
-Adding an “endgame mode” for when the RPT runs out;
This should not take long and should hopefully be resolved in this coming week.

Other developments:
-More work on SiennaLend.
-A deeper dive into oracles for Secret Network that Sienna can utilize for SiennaSwap before the implementation begins shortly.
-Full speed ahead with frontend development for SiennaSwap 2.0 + its new secret feature coming with it.
-Minor UI/UX tweaks to SiennaSwap 2.0
-Significant code optimization for SiennaSwap 1.0 is done. It was decided to audit the frontend code as well a few weeks back and the minor fixes have now been implemented, making it even better.

Sienna's weekly discussion #1:

Based on Sienna's previous article about privacy (https://sienna.network/blog/privacy-matters/) we'd like to know more why privacy matters to you?

So let's start this discussion on Monday in  @GoSiennaNetwork from 2pm to 2:30pm UTC - why privacy matters to you?

2 random draw participants will be rewarded with 10 SIENNA  each!

Youtube-blogger Josh Cross reviewed the Sienna Network:  Sienna Network EXPLAINED - The Privacy DeFi NEEDS | DeFi NOW 

Weekly Dev. Update #01 (20/06/2021)
A member of the Sienna community asked if Sienna could do weekly development updates to which the answer was — definitely! So here is the first of many coming.
We’d also like to apologize for the lack of communication around this area, which also has led to delayed launch date due to audits taking longer than anticipated and final tweaks to the smart contacts were needed for it to work with the frontend.
Recent Developments:
- Received final audit report for the rewards contracts
- Awaiting the final audit report from the AMM
- Frontend is ready
- Node infrastructure provided by ChainOfSecrets is ready
- The current smart contracts on testnet have a claim time interval of 5 minutes for the SIENNA rewards to speed up testing.
Expecting the final testnet version with 24h claims to be deployed on Monday / Tuesday, which then can be tested out as the final version before deploying to mainnet.
- The only thing missing from the backend is a cloud function that calls claim on the vesting contract for the SIENNA rewards people can earn by staking the LP tokens, which should be done by Monday or Tuesday. Once that is running and the tests look good, then a firm launch date will be set for Mainnet, which should be before end of this month.
- Once the firm launch date is set, marketing will be fired up for the launch event.
- Development of Sienna Lend is going well and underway.

Weekly Dev. Update #02 (27/06/2021)
Recent Developments:
-Tested the final testnet during this week and had to make some tweaks to the rewards contracts, which is now done and awaiting deployment on testnet tomorrow.
-Expecting to receive final audit report from Certik mid next week for the tweaked rewards logic and tweaked AMM logic (mostly making it more easy to interact with via the frontend).
-Deploying final rewards contract tomorrow with short claim interval to for final testing. If that goes well, deployment of the final testnet version with 24h claim interval will be done the same day.
-If all testing goes well for the second final deployment, Sienna will set the final launch date for mainnet Monday or Tuesday in upcoming week (28th / 29th)
-Expecting mainnet launch in the first week of July. Extremely close now.
-Sienna Lend development is still going well and Paralink has said they will begin to develop the price oracles for Secret Network (the blockchain Sienna is built on) in July, so Sienna can utilize them.

Weekly Dev. Update #03 (04/07/2021)
While performing more tests we discovered a potential issue with the rewards that arises when depositing / withdrawing LP-tokens to claim rewards, where the calculated rewards amount per 24h could be potentially taken advantage of.
There is now a solution for this and should be resolved in the upcoming week.
Two algorithms have been constructed and each one is undergoing testing as we speak to pick the best and most efficient one, gas wise.
Once that’s resolved, a launch date can be set. The Sienna contributors, which is now over 20 people are working as quick as possible to have this resolved, so that SiennaSwap can go live.
Recent Developments:
-V2 Design for SiennaSwap with UI/UX improvements, which will be implemented after the launch of SiennaSwap combined with a new secret product that will kept secret until the day it launches — so don’t bother asking about it.
-More work on SiennaLend.
-Work on optimizing the developer tooling so Sienna can onboard more developer contributors faster.
-New website is done and will go live in this upcoming week.

Weekly Dev. Update #04 (11/07/2021)
In this week’s update there is latest news about the progress of implementing the best solution to the problem discovered with the rewards.
There are two solutions proposed of which now is undergoing final extensive testing at scale to see how the handles itself gas-wise.
In this coming week the implementation will most likely be fixed and Sienna will be ready to launch. We will keep the community updated on all progress made on this**.**
Recent Developments:
-In the meantime a new fresh look to the website was launched on https://sienna.network. Check it out and let us know what you think!
‍-A new blog for Sienna Network: https://sienna.network/blog
‍-Read the latest article here on Why Privacy Matters: https://sienna.network/blog/privacy-matters/
‍-UI/UX for SiennaSwap V2 is almost done and UI/UX is being made for the secret product that will begin development the next week after this current one. Then the development will begin for it. All we can say at this point is that the secret product will enhance SiennaSwap significantly.
‍-Minor frontend fixes after more user testing while we wait for the rewards logic to be complete as described above.
‍-Exchange listing confirmed. Sienna’ will time the listing around the same time as when SiennaSwap launches. Which exchange remains hidden until announced.

Weekly Dev. Update #05 (18/07/2021)
In this week’s development update we share the status of getting closer to launch and the status on the rewards logic fix that was discovered some weeks ago.
Recent Developments:
-Final pass of testing + refactoring of the fixes to the rewards logic. It has been an interesting process developing an algorithm that uses a fixed allocation budget contrary to minting. Final tests are being run and should be ready next week, which then will be sent to Certik for a auditing, which shouldn’t take long.
-The refactoring has lead to implementing a couple of helper harness libraries and Rust traits that are now useful for other parts of the development, such as viewing keys helpers, reusable testing harness and simplified actions on SNIP-20 tokens.
-UI/UX for SiennaSwap 2.0 + UI/UX SiennaSwap’s new secret features are completely done. Coding begins Monday for the implementation.
-UI/UX for investor claim panel done. Implementation begins next week.
-More work on SiennaLend.
