A huge thank you to everyone who voted for Kusama Ref 477!
The 50,000 KSM loan has been successfully received.

These funds will provide base liquidity support for the KSM-vKSM pair in Bifrost Stable Swap.
But even more is on the way to revive the Canary Cyberpunk beast ⤵️
https://x.com/Bifrost/status/1869699964311597118

Next steps 🥵:

• Test DOT <> KSM Bridge, adapt the staking pallet migration from Relay-chain to AssetHub.
• Register vKSM on Bifrost-Polkadot, enable SLPx supports vKSM minting on Bifrost-Polkadot.
• Adapt vKSM in LoopStake.
• Bridge vKSM-KSM liquidity to Bifrost-Polkadot.
• Establish vKSM-KSM liquidity on Bifrost-Polkadot.
• Register vKSM in Hydration, migrate 50%-80% vKSM-KSM liquidity to the Omnipool and start a joint-incentivization campaign.
• Focus on expanding vKSM use cases through the SLPx strategy across more EVM-compatible chains and Layer 2 networks (via
Hyperbridge), in line with Bifrost’s long-term roadmap: https://www.notion.so/Bifrost-Roadmap-ba6c44bd4f684e5aa875ec44388b2330?pvs=21

🔊 Important announcement for vFIL holders.

Based on users feedback and several product limitations, we have decided to shut down vFIL service. It will take place in stages, giving holders enough time to complete their redemptions.

The detailed timeline is as follows:
1️⃣ Phase 1 (Q4 2024)
• Stop FIL deposits into Bifrost (Completed ✅)
• Stop vFIL minting (Scheduled for governance execution on December 31, 2024 ⏳)

2️⃣ Phase 2 (Q1 2025)
• Await the gradual expiration of FIL wrapped by Filecoin storage providers (SPs)
• Upon expiration, the unlocked FIL will be transferred to Bifrost’s vFIL Ready Pool.

Wrapped FIL Expiration Dates:
• f079426: October 24, 2024 (Expired)
• f02182258: November 3, 2024 (Expired)
• f0111584: February 1, 2025

3️⃣ Phase 3 (Q2 2025)
• Decommission on-chain vFIL asset custody
• Enable users to redeem vFIL at any time and directly swap back to FIL via fast redemption.
• Allow users to transfer FIL back to the Filecoin network via the cross-chain bridge.

4️⃣ Phase 4 (By June 30, 2025)
• Disable FIL cross-chain bridge between Bifrost Chain and Filecoin network.
• After the bridge closed, vFIL can still be redeemed, but FIL will no longer be able to be immediately transferred back to the Filecoin network.

5️⃣ Phase 5 (After June 30, 2025)
• Decommission on-chain modules related to FIL cross-chain transfers
• Users can still use Bifrost governance proposals to cross-chain FIL back to the Filecoin network, although this process may take several months

💡It is highly recommended to complete vFIL redemption and cross-chain FIL to the Filecoin network BEFORE THE END OF PHASE 3 to avoid complications after the cross-chain service is halted.
