New Year, Stronger Junction alpha!

Gm Junction fam,

Happy New Year! 🥳 We’ve officially crossed over into 2025, and couldn’t be more excited for what lies ahead. Looking back, 2024 was a year of building bridges (literally and figuratively) and laying the foundation for a seamless multi-chain future.

And now, with a fresh year ahead, we’re doubling down on our mission to make DeFi simpler, smoother, and more accessible than ever. Expect bigger updates, smarter swaps, and plenty of surprises along the way.

Our 2024 wrapped:

2024 was an incredible year of building, growing, and connecting with the community. Here’s a quick look at what we accomplished together:

• Launched the JUNCTION WEBSITE!

• Launched the first alpha of our app, starting with swaps across EVMs

• From Devcon to the Staking Summit, we attended numerous events, where we showcased our alpha, and gathered invaluable feedback from users

• Launched a special quest for our early adopters who also earned an exclusive badge

• Expanded cross-ecosystem swaps to Ethereum, Bitcoin, Dogecoin, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash

• Just a week later, expanded swaps from Bitcoin/Ethereum to Solana as well

• Introduced ‘Wallet Packages’ - grouped wallets by ecosystems and connect multiple wallets in a single click

• Published our first blog introducing what we’re building at Junction - check it out here

• Partnered with top protocols to power Junction (more details shared in our blog)

• In case you missed it, Junction started as the API behind CTRL Wallet and is now launching as a standalone project, aiming to make DeFi even more accessible

We also launched a 24-hour quest on January 1st, 2025, rewarding users with an exclusive badge to kick off the new year! 🎁 Missed it? Don’t worry - more rewards are on the way 🫣

Here’s to all we achieved in 2024 - and the exciting milestones waiting for us in 2025! 🥂
