In regards to the delay of the much-anticipated launch of Warp V2, we are in the final stages of testing to ensure the robustness of our internal liquidations system. More specifically, our team is refining and testing our liquidation bot to ensure healthy collateralization of the platform as we are setting up to launch our first Element v1.1 USDC pool. We will be updating our gitbook on the process and post materials on the liquidation process closer to launch and encourage our technical community to integrate and participate. The entire Warp team is working to launch V2 as soon as possible. We are currently hopeful that everything will be ready for a March launch as we have fully identified all testing requirements, but in full transparency, these requirements may cause us to run slightly into April.

V2 Warp Me Competition

In order to rejuvenate the excitement about the launch of Warp V2, we are engaging with our community, especially those of you that have been around patiently waiting, through a content competition. We KNOW that what we are launching is going to reshape the DeFi lending landscape with functionalities that have not been seen before and are excited to see what creative and educational works our community can create.

We are hosting an official V2 Warp Me Competition giving away 20 WARP to the best creative and educational works across four (4) different categories. This competition is being hosted not only to grow excitement but most importantly to showcase appreciation for the continued support and passion that the community has expressed as we have been preparing to unleash Warp V2.
