In this (final) weekly update we’ll report:

  • The new site design + reception of new feature Fertilizer
  • The launch of our investment arm Cropperbros Research and its first partner
  • A big upcoming event and what to expect entering October

Out of this World: Outcrowd completes site design

One of the main reasons we were so excited to partner with our UX expert design agency Outcrowd was because we knew they could take CropperFinance’s love for wild cosmic farmers to the next level. We told them we wanted farmers farming peacefully in the Cosmos.

Some farmers dream of going to the moon, but Croppers dream of colonizing it. And thanks to Outcrowd, now each farmer visit to CropperFinance will feel like a relaxing deep dive into the galactic abyss of farming utopia.

Our Farm Launcher’s hero feature, Fertilizer was Revealed

Firstly, thank you to our community for responding in such a big way to the reveal of our awesome new farm feature Fertilizer. We want to let Croppers know that we’ve been listening closely to your feedback and appreciate the great questions that have been asked about Fertilizer. We’re committed to ensuring the Fertilizer concept is as clear as possible and are already working on a more detailed rundown of its anatomy, working specs, and benefits to accomplish this.

Reminder of the value CropperFinance was built to provide

As a user of CropperFinance, what am I going to be able to do?

  • Swap SPL tokens
  • Provide liquidities to pools to earn rewards from the swap
  • Provide LP tokens to farms to earn rewards in tokens
  • Participate in exclusive events through our Fertilizer feature
  • Farm with the biggest farmer community on Solana

Cropperbros Research goes live, partners with Waggle Network

This week Cropperbros Research was launched as the investment arm of CropperFinance. We’re excited for the opportunity to now be able to support projects we believe in. The first partnership announced this week was with Waggle Network. The partnership with Waggle was all about the clear synergy we share as a result of aligned values.

A big AMA is on the way

Answers are coming. And you get to ask the questions. We’re now in the final talks with Solana communities from around the world of finalizing a week long AMA before launch.

We’re excited to be able to use this as an opportunity to open up a focused dialogue with our communities and ensure we’re doing our part in supporting Croppers with the right information.

Why This Is Our Last Weekly Update

5 weeks ago we promised you that we would release weekly updates until the farms were open and that we would keep you informed on everything you needed to know about CropperFinance’s progress.

While the farms will be open soon, and we are entering the final phase of our audit, we’re still working with Halborn to ensure that we do everything we can to fulfil that promise. If there’s one thing we learned this month it’s that being audited thoroughly by a reputable entity that believes in your project takes time — because they want you to succeed as much as they want their name to be respected.

But another reason we’re moving on from the weekly update is because we’ve outgrown them in the last month. We’ve got so many exciting things in the pipeline that we need multiple drops a week just to ensure that everything worth reporting to our community is getting the attention it deserves.

Fridays with you all have been so much fun. And, while this is the last weekly update, we promise next week is going to be the most exciting yet.

Tune in next week for everything you want to know.
