And It's A Wrap! We're excited to announce that our Beta Testnet has officially come to an end. After nearly two months of collecting feedback from our beta users, we're closing this chapter and opening Tower Exchange to the public for testing: tower.exchange What started as an early testing phase quickly became a collaborative effort. Millions of transactions, swaps, bridges, and recurring orders later, we've learned a lot from how people actually use the product. To everyone who tested, reported bugs, shared ideas, and stuck with us throughout the beta, thank you. Your feedback has had a direct impact on the product, and we're better because of it. This is only the beginning.

We've added @cirBTC as a supported swap asset on @TowerExchange. cirBTC is @circle's wrapped Bitcoin, backed 1:1 by real BTC. Our users can now swap and automate their Bitcoin positions onchain, all in one place. Try it out now!

We shipped a few meaningful updates last week: 1. USDT is also now live as a supported swap asset, expanding our stablecoin coverage on @arc and giving users more options within the ecosystem. 2. Recurring Orders now route smarter. They tap into optimized paths instead of fixed routes, so you're getting better execution on autopilot. 3. The bridge now supports forwarders, which means you no longer need gas on both chains to complete a cross-chain transfer. 4. The AI agent can now initiate bridges directly. Ask it to move assets across chains and it handles it! 5. Swap execution through the AI agent also got an upgrade. It now applies full routing logic when filling swaps, and USDT is now supported as a swap asset. We're just getting started, so expect more UI/UX optimizations this week.

Arc Builder Spotlight: @TowerExchange Tower is building a stablecoin-focused DEX aggregator on Arc testnet. Join us live on May 21 at 10:00 AM EDT for a walkthrough of the build: → Liquidity aggregation across Arc DEXs → Smart routing for swap execution → Bridging across supported chains → Tower AI for portfolio, trade, and performance insights community.arc.network/public…

Here's what we've achieved in just one week of beta launch! Thank you to everyone who’s taken the time to try things out and share their feedbacks. Your input is directly influencing what comes next, so keep it coming 🔥

A toast to the first 500 believers of tower. 🥂 You showed up before the hype, before the crowd, before any of it. You have shown trust in what we were building even when it was just a vision, and that means everything to us. There would be no us without your support. Seriously. To celebrate this milestone, we are dropping invite codes randomly in the comments. Stay close, check back often, and keep your eyes peeled. You do not want to miss this. Here is to what comes next 🥂

We're thrilled to announce that our Beta Testnet is now live! After weeks of careful testing and refinement, we're opening Tower to the public for beta testing. To get started, you'll need an invite code. Each code can be used 11 times, so you can use one for yourself and share it with up to 10 friends. Make sure to connect your wallet first before entering your invite code. If you were an alpha test user and have cleared your browser cookies or site data, you'll likely need a fresh invite code to access the platform. Here's how we're distributing codes: 1. All our X followers will get an invite code sent directly to you as a DM. Keep an eye on your messages. 2. We're distributing codes in our Discord and Telegram communities. Discord boosters will get early access, followed by the rest of the community. 3. Top-tier DeFi KOLs, mid-tier KOLs, and other @arc key opinion leaders will receive codes via direct message. These will be sent either from our founders directly or from Tower's official X account. 4. We're also giving codes to our integration partners and collaborating with other DeFi communities to spread the word. 5. Look out for additional codes through giveaways and other special initiatives. Once you're in, please share your feedback in our Discord feedback channel. We'd love to hear what you think. We're still actively building, and we can't wait to have more users join us as we work toward becoming the best Stablecoin DEX Aggregator built natively for @arc.

Momentum is building. This week we showcased with @arc, and our founder @Oxcheatcode personally walked the community through a live product demo on Discord. Appreciate @samconnerone, @silencexlm, and @0xmikef for making it happen. On to the next milestone.

Another Founder's Friday is upon us🔥🔥🔥 We're featuring @KaspaMeta and @CallmeBasedDev The team behind @KnowEmpire, an onchain marketplace for physical goods. ⏰12pm WAT 🗓Today, 12th December 🎙Hosts @iaminiekanem and Nelooo Don't miss it 🫵
