Time sure flies when you work in DeFi! The Helis team has been working at full-steam on our technical, educational, and operational efforts and we’re excited about what we’ve got to share as we head into the final quarter of 2019.

Q3 2019

Helis Network has a lot to be proud of in terms of the work completed in Q3. We’ve made steady progress on our Lend & Earn product and anticipate Early Access being open to beta testers in the coming weeks.

The DeFi Podcast launched in September with our first episode featuring Hugh Karp of Nexus Mutual. In the episode, Helis Network CEO and founder Kerman Kohli interviews Hugh on smart contracts, how Nexus insures against smart contract failure, and the role of Nexus in the Ethereum ecosystem.

We onboarded a full-stack engineer and a content strategist to support our marketing efforts and are looking to bring more full-time software engineers. If you’re interested in applying, please see our job description and email your CV to hello@helis.network.

Keep an eye out as we ramp up our efforts to provide educational content and commentary on the growth of DeFi.

Q4 2019

The final quarter of 2019 will heavily focus on research and development to optimize our Payroll, Lend & Earn, and DAOMetrics products.

Thanks to a new partnership with Nexo, home of the world’s first Crypto Credit Line, our payroll product will undergo pilot testing and see the integration of several features from Nexo’s product line, including Instant Crypto Credit Lines™ and Earn Interest.

Q1 2020

As the New Year rolls around, Helis will take the opportunity to integrate all of the new insights we’ve gained through research and community engagement to optimize our products for consumer use.

To further our efforts to educate the community on DeFi, we also plan to develop a curriculum for a “DeFi School” and launch DAO Metrics to provide analytics on the development of decentralized autonomous organizations.

Q2 2020

In the second quarter of 2020, our focus will shift toward growth efforts.

In hiring and building support for our Asian community, we aim to bridge the liquidity pools and innovation happening in the West with the buy-side demand for stablecoins and non-custodial lending solutions. Adding support for USDT and RMB-backed stablecoins will remove friction from capital flows between Asia and the rest of the world.

Conclusion

The Helis team strives for transparency in our ambitious efforts and we pride ourselves on keeping our community up-to-date on what we’re doing and acting on the insights provided by our excellent community.
