NEW FEATURE
Leagues Will Soon Be Available to Businesses: Sign Up Now to Register Your Interest
With the first iteration of Leagues going live, we announce the upcoming arrival of Leagues PRO: the B2B version of Pollen Leagues, launching soon to offer crypto businesses a new way to harness their communities. Early registrants get a sneak peek and the opportunity to implement this white-label solution first.
After several months in development and successful governance vote this week, we will finally be launching Pollen Leagues on mainnet on November 9. Adding a teamplay element to Pollen Virtual, our Leagues module offers individual group and community members a way to both compete amongst each other, and as a team, against other leagues.
With this latest release hot off testnet and so well received by our community, we’re ready to announce its next, B2B iteration: Leagues PRO, to be made available to crypto businesses and community owners by end-2022. Backed by the Hivemind Protocol — a specially designed open protocol that measures league members’ trading performance — Leagues PRO allows league organizers to reward their communities and provide downstream revenue.
Leagues PRO is currently ready to be rolled out in beta and will initially be available on a first-come, first-served basis to a select few Pollen partners.

GOVERNANCE
Vote to Get Leagues Up on Mainnet
The first governance vote to pass on the Pollen Governance Portal brought you 10 new ERC-20 tokens. Up next: Our proposal to take our long-awaited Leagues module to mainnet.
What an exciting month this has been on the governance front — we’ve seen a dozen proposals go up on our newly launched Governance Portal, and the proposal to add 10 new tokens to Pollen Virtual passed with nearly 90,000 votes.
With this proposal now executed, you can diversify your portfolio even further with popular ERC-20 assets APE, MKR, DOT, NEAR, COMP, BAT, SNX, AXS, MATIC and CHZ.
Up next is another big proposal, courtesy of Team Pollen: the mainnet launch of our teamplay module Leagues has just gone up on the Governance Portal and will be active for you to cast your votes until November 2.
We’ve been working on this new feature for months, continually improving it thanks to your feedback on the beta release. We’re now ready to take it to mainnet and hope you are too.
Read on to find out more about Leagues, and to make sure you know how Pollen governance works.

NEW BETA RELEASE
Beta x 2: Mobile UI and Governance Now on Testnet
Another week, another set of Pollen features available for you to test and provide feedback on: our much awaited Governance portal, and mobile responsiveness for Pollenators on the go.
We’ve spent the summer building. A couple of weeks ago, we introduced you to the beta versions of Pollen Leagues and Shorts, which we complemented with the addition of 10 new ERC20 tokens. This week, we bring our Governance portal and mobile user interface to testnet.

2022–2023 ROADMAP
Busy Bees: Pollen in 2022 & Beyond
We take the last days of summer to reflect on what we have achieved so far in 2022, and prepare for what will be an even busier few months ahead. Check out the Pollen roadmap to decentralizing asset management.
The end of Q3 is fast approaching and with it, the release of several important Pollen Virtual upgrades: the launch of Pollen Leagues, the addition of a shorting functionality, and — to make sure these are upgrades are community-vetted — the opening of the Pollen Governance Portal. As we prepare to go to market with this latest batch of Pollen features, we look at what got us here, and plan ahead for Q4 2022 and beyond.

NEW BETA RELEASE
Up Your Game: Pollen Leagues and Shorts Are Live on Testnet
Pollen Virtual’s latest iteration comes with a shorting functionality and lets you compete against your peers and as a team. A bonus: 10 new assets.
We’re excited to introduce you to not one, but two brand new Pollen features — Pollen Leagues and Shorts.
By now, you’ve probably mastered the Pollen Virtual dashboard, and Leagues is your chance to challenge your peers and take your skills to the next level by competing in your very own league.
Given the bear market that we’ve been through over the past few months, you probably also know a thing or two about shorting assets. We now give you an easy way to do it — at a single click of a button.
