To-dos in this development sprint
📑 Smart Contracts
Perpetual Protocol Command-line Tool Private Key Support (🚧 still work in progress!)
Currently, our open-source command-line tool only supports mnemonic phrases, aka seed phrases, to access your wallet. As the last functionality for this tool, we’re adding support for private key import.
📑 Backend
Arbitrageur Bot Upgrade
We heard your complaints. The current Arbitrageur Bot opens positions on both FTX and Perpetual Protocol simultaneously. We’ll change the process to open a position on Perpetual Protocol first then open another one on FTX to increase your arbitrage success rate.
💻 Web
Mobile Web UI (🚧 still work in progress!)
Progress is being made! 🔜 For now, if you want to trade on Perpetual Protocol on the go, please use the lite mode or trade.apex.win instead (note APEX uses Perpetual Protocol on the back-end, but positions will not show across perp.exchange and APEX.)
