Hi Everyone!
Welcome to Rujira Weekly Recap, where we share all the interesting things that happened recently!
⚡️Rujira updates
Roadmap update
Earlier this week, we updated the community on the roadmap for the next couple of weeks. Since our update on Tuesday, we have made progress and received news that Token Factory and the Merge contract will be included in THORChain v3.4. Once the Merge contract is live on mainnet, we can set a date for the Merge.
If you would like to keep track of the progression on v3.4, you can do so on Gitlab.
Web3Amsterdam was a success!
Last week, we attended web3amsterdam, our first conference as Rujira. It was a great networking event where we met many interesting people from RWA projects, CEXs, market makers, custodians and family offices. There was always someone at the booth, curious to learn more about Rujira, what we are building, and how much of a game-changer our UX will be once we go live.
At the event, our team participated in two panels and delivered one keynote, which can be viewed below.
Panel: The End of Fragmentation: Building for a Connected Future
Panel: Crypto for the People: Simplifying UX to Fuel Global Adoption
Keynote: Building the Omnichain DeFi Rails for Humans and Machines
We are looking forward to attending more conferences this year, to showcase Rujira to a wider audience.
CosmWasm Deployment
During the Web3Amsterdam event, THORChain’s mainnet underwent a major upgrade to v3.3, making CosmWasm officially live on THORChain.
To guide the nodes in their vote to deploy v3.3 on mainnet, we created a document describing how the App Layer will function from both a technical and security perspective.
THORFi unwind and next steps
THORChain shared a document describing the background of THORFi, the events that led to the THORFi situation, the details and implementation of Proposal 6, and the role of $TCY. If you would like to catch up on the situation, this is a great overview.
⚡️ Ecosystem news
RujiAI Beta test starts
The AutoRujira team has been relentlessly building and reached an important milestone last week: creating the first Rujira AI Agent.
How does it work?
– The user creates a prompt
– The elizaOS agent uses Venice to interpret the prompt
– The agent triggers an action on one of the Rujira products
While we are still in the early days, imagine the game changer it will be. There is no need anymore for manual actions, or constant monitoring of the charts. Ask your AI agent to do it for you via a simple conversation, while you are relaxing on the couch or at the beach.
Want to try it out and help test? Reach out to the team to see if there are some spots left!
Educating the next generation of UK-based builders
Rujira Academy shared its vision for 2026 with us: positioning Rujira as the leading educator in the UK university space. The partnership with the University of Bristol is an amazing achievement, and we believe this is only the beginning.
Let’s educate the next generation of builders, and build together towards a more decentralized world!
MantaDAO teaser
MantaDAO has teased us with a rebrand as they prepare for the future and their re-launch on Rujira. New colors, a new logo, and much more to come in the following months.
