🛣️Our Roadmap

Q1 [2024]

• Integration of GMX V2: GLend will provide users with highly customizable strategies for lending, borrowing, and yield farming. The integration will empower users to tailor their financial strategies based on individual risk tolerance and investment objectives, enhancing the overall flexibility of the platform. Users will be able to leverage GMX V2 LP tokens for augmented exposure to yields and price action. Along with this integration, GLend will move from fixed rates based on GLP's weekly yield to dynamic, constantly changing rates.

• Introduction of GLend TVL Accrual Incentives: These incentives of the GLEND token are intended to strategically increase the TVL of the GLend protocol. With an increased TVL, the protocol revenue will increase which will lead to more funds to buyback the GLEND token.

• Crypto Alpha Intelligence: Expanding the capabilities of Gemach AI - Alpha Intelligence to cover more markets and provide deeper insights. AI tooling will also be integrated the onto several blockchains.

Q2 [2024]

• Activation of GLend Sustainable Token Flywheel: Start the buyback system for GLEND with the revenue from the GLend money markets. This will complete the flywheel which will start an upward spiral of growth for the GLend protocol.

• Introduction of GLend Autolooping: Autolooping will allow users to loop in and out of positions with one click. This feature will automatically supply what a user borrowed several times over for multiplied exposure to price action and yields on their chosen asset. It will be the first time a DeFi lending protocol has this feature. This will allow us to build out more features and products that we want to build.

• GLEND Airdrop to GMX Blueberry Club NFT Collection: This promised airdrop will continue to give us exposure to potential users. This will be after the GLend sustainable token flywheel is activated because we want our potential new users to fully understand our protocol and see our new features and tokenomics in action. NFT holders will need to interact with our website to claim. If unclaimed after 90 days, the tokens will go to the treasury.

• Expansion of Asset Offering with Stringent Eligibility Criteria: This expansion aims to provide users with increased opportunities for leveraging assets to augment exposure to price action and yields. However, in ensuring the security and stability of our protocol, it is imperative to exercise prudence in the selection of new assets. To this end, we will implement stringent requirements, standards, and rules to assess the eligibility of assets before making them available for lending and borrowing on our protocol. These criteria will be meticulously crafted to identify potential risks associated with new assets, including but not limited to security vulnerabilities and susceptibility to exploitation. By adhering to these evaluation processes, we aim to mitigate potential threats and safeguard the integrity of our protocol for all participants.

• Completion of GLend's Gemach Integration: GLend will achieve complete integration into the Gemach DAO's DeFi legos ecosystem. GLend will seamlessly integrate GBot, allowing users to borrow, lend, and manage their assets directly through Telegram. This integration aims to enhance user accessibility and convenience, fostering a frictionless experience within the Telegram environment. This integration will create a seamless synergy between GLend and other Gemach DAO projects, enabling users to leverage a comprehensive suite of decentralized financial services, all under one unified platform for an enchanced user experience.

• New GBot Tools & Strategies: Enhancing GBot with additional trading strategies and tools including GSniper, limit orders, leverage trading, and decentralized autonomous trading agents (D.A.T.A.).

Q3 [2024]

• Introduction of Gauge Voting for GLend TVL Accrual Incentives: This will allow token holders to actively determine incentive allocation across asset markets, fostering a democratic and community-driven ecosystem. However, this may lead to intensified competition among liquidity providers, sparking what is colloquially known as a "bribing war" as participants vie for lucrative incentives. The GLEND token will be utilized for voting, enhancing governance and boosting its utility. As holders engage in the voting process, they'll inherently increase the token's utility and intrinsic value, fostering a dynamic environment where stakeholders are incentivized to contribute to GLend's growth and success.

• Introduction of GLend Uniswap V3 Integration: This will unlock the inherent value of Uniswap V3 concentrated liquidity provider positions by allowing them to be used as collateral. Users will be able to take out leverage on these positions for multiplied exposure to price action and yields.

• Begin Investing GLend Treasury: The GLend treasury will be strategically invested in diversified yield strategies. The resulting revenue will contribute to our sustainable token flywheel. This revenue will also be utilized to grow the treasury, support development, marketing, and other proposals approved by token holders. A Gemach proposal will be initiated to elect a CFO (Chief Financial Officer) responsible for overseeing treasury investments. KingBlueberry.eth, the current lead decision-maker for GLend, is a potential candidate. Following the completion of our planned protocol features, treasury decisions will be transferred to token holders through a structured governance framework.

• GLend Partnership Collaborations: GLend will actively collaborate with external DeFi projects and experts to explore innovative use cases and strategies leveraging GMX V2. These partnerships will bring diverse perspectives and expertise, enriching the platform’s offerings and providing users with a wide array of strategic investment & trading options.

• User Education & Adoption: The team will initiate comprehensive user education programs, tutorials, and interactive guides to ensure that the community fully understands the capabilities of the Gemach ecosystem. This educational effort will be pivotal in driving user adoption and engagement with our new features. Additionally, there will be integration of multilingual support to cater to a global audience.

Q4 [2024]

• Introduction of GLend Cross-Chain Interoperability: This feature will make the money markets on GLend able to have a single asset money markets that are combined between blockchains. Users will be able to lend on one blockchain while being able borrow on many other blockchains. This feature will give each asset money market the ability to accrue TVL from many blockchains.

• Introduction of GLend Smart Vaults: These vaults will work like DeFi savings accounts that utilize the GLend protocol. Users will be able to deposit into a selected strategy and their position will be managed automatically. These will be able to be adopted by less experienced DeFi users to earn marvelous yields.

• Introduction of Portfolio Tools: New tools will be launched for risk assessment and portfolio management. These will be crafted to empower users with comprehensive risk assessment capabilities and portfolio management functionalities. Our risk assessment tools will provide users with insightful analytics, enabling them to evaluate the potential risks associated with their crypto investments. From tracking asset performance in real-time to optimizing asset allocation strategies, our platform will equip users with the tools they need to construct and maintain a diversified crypto portfolio effectively.

• Integration with Several Blockchains & Multi-Chain Functionalities: By integrating with other blockchain networks, Gemach can achieve complete interoperability, allowing seamless communication and interaction between different blockchains. This interoperability can facilitate a wide range of use cases. Integration with other blockchain networks enables access to diverse ecosystems, each with its own unique features, user base, and applications. This will allow Gemach to tap into new markets, collaborate with other projects, and leverage existing infrastructure and resources to accelerate development and adoption. By actively participating in multi-chain initiatives and partnerships, our project can engage with a wider audience, attract new users and developers, and build a stronger community around our shared vision. Furthermore, integration with other blockchains can serve as a bridge to legacy systems, facilitating the transition from traditional financial infrastructure to decentralized systems. This can attract institutional investors and enterprises looking to leverage blockchain technology while maintaining compatibility with existing systems and processes.

[2025]

• Organizing Global Virtual Events & Meetups: In order to foster community engagement and education, our project will host a series of global virtual events and meetups. These events will serve as platforms for users, developers, and enthusiasts to come together, share insights, and discuss the latest developments in the crypto space. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with contributors, participate in Q&A sessions, and gain valuable knowledge about our project's mission, technology, and roadmap. Additionally, these events will provide a space for networking and collaboration, allowing attendees to connect with like-minded individuals and potential partners.

• Establishing a Community Reward & Recognition Program: In recognition of the valuable contributions made by our community members, we will establish a reward and recognition program to incentivize participation and promote active engagement. This program will be designed to acknowledge individuals who contribute to the project's development, promotion, and community building efforts. By incentivizing positive contributions and recognizing the efforts of our community members, we aim to cultivate a supportive and vibrant ecosystem around Gemach. This will not only enhance community morale but will also attract new community members.

• Expanding the Gemach Ecosystem Through Strategic Partnerships: Our project is committed to expanding the Gemach ecosystem by forming strategic partnerships with like-minded organizations and projects. These partnerships will enable us to leverage synergies, share resources, and accelerate the adoption of Gemach technologies. Through strategic partnerships, we can tap into new markets, access additional resources, and enhance the value proposition of our platform. Collaborating with established players in the crypto space can also help us gain credibility and visibility within the broader community. By working together towards common goals, we can amplify our collective impact and drive positive change on a global scale.

Please keep in mind that this roadmap is a work in progress and will continue to be added upon. It's designed to guide Gemach towards a future where DeFi is accessible, secure, and beneficial for everyone. Our goals are ambitious, yet achievable, with a focus on continual improvement and adaptation to the evolving DeFi landscape.
