Launch dApp: APOLLO

The Road to Olympus

Starting from the journey with Zeus Network, the first product that carries the greatest mission of bringing Bitcoin liquidity to Solana, APOLLO, is officially going to the sight of the people. The mission of APOLLO is simple: Put your Bitcoin to (good) work.

We are believers in the monolithic of Solana that will bring the seamless blockchain and Web3 technology experience to the world, and first of all, we need the light of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin.

Development and Milestones

It’s been 6 months since the very first testnet which was only opened to honorable Olympians from the community. With dedicated and focused development, the Zeus Dev Team not only beautified the interface but also enhanced the security underneath the orange liquidity extractor.

From four thousand participants to seventy thousand participants of the first and second testnet, APOLLO has proven the demand of Bitcoin holders dropping BTC to Solana and also the trust in the decentralized approach of Zeus Network.

For the third and last testnet, we are expecting more than hundred thousand of testers to engage with APOLLO.
