Wanchain Community,
Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year from the Wanchain team!

Wanchain 3.0 is live, bridging Bitcoin to Ethereum and ERC20s
What Is Wanchain 3.0?
Wanchain 3.0 is our next step in bridging blockchains and connecting the world’s digital assets. This product launch brings Bitcoin interoperability to Wanchain’s platform. This means any application built on Wanchain will have interoperability with Ethereum and Bitcoin. Additionally, any Ethereum-based dApp, DEX, protocol, or other project can connect with Wanchain to leverage Bitcoin’s blockchain and users. This will create massive increases in liquidity, demand, and volume for Ethereum-based projects.
ERC20 Integrations with Wanchain
Wanchain has proved their cross-chain protocol can connect to any kind of blockchain, first connecting to Ethereum back in July with the launch of 2.0 and now with the release of 3.0 featuring Bitcoin interoperability. With the release of 3.0, the Wanchain team also showed that they are ready to connect to any ERC-20. Here are some ERC-20 projects that Wanchain has connected to:

Wanchain on the Screen
Wanchain's CEO, VP of Engineering, and VP of Product weigh in on interoperability, our recent 3.0 product launch, updates related to Wanchain's Proof of Stake solution, and key priorities moving forward into 2019
On November 10th, 2018, Jack Lu, the founder and CEO of Wanchain, sat down for a live streamed in depth discussion with 8BTC’s Helen Wang. Their discussion focused on technology driven change, and on how cross chain infrastructure will lead to a more mature and rich crypto-economic ecosystem. Here is the English translation of their conversation.
A Look Back at 2018
2018 was a year to remember for everyone in crypto. We will all remember 2018 for the market volatility, but also for the fantastic technological progress made across the entire industry. We are very proud of our contributions to the BUIDL movement this year, as we released three major product launches throughout the year. Now at the end of December, we have Wanchain 3.0 live on mainnet. We have accomplished our roadmap that we laid out when we launched the company. Although we are very excited to be the leading provider of blockchain interoperability, we remain steadfast in our pursuit of mass adoption, excellent user experience, and bridging the traditional world to the Web 3.0 world. We thank you for going along this journey with us, and we can't wait to share an even more exciting 2019 with you all.
Sincerely,
The Wanchain Team
