The Nolus Money Market continues to expand its asset coverage and user incentives with several key updates this month.
​

We’ve added support for long positions on $dNTRN (via Astroport on Neutron), as well as $BABY, $NIL, and $XION (available through Osmosis). These additions offer users broader exposure across ecosystems while benefiting from Nolus' signature leverage features.
​

To encourage participation and experimentation with these assets, we've also launched a limited-time incentive: users can open interest-free long positions on $BTC and $dNTRN through July 1st. This allows for strategic entry points without the burden of protocol interest, giving users more flexibility in managing capital.

​

The upcoming v0.8.0 update to Nolus Core is now in testnet and will be deployed to mainnet soon. This release includes sweeping improvements across protocol logic, dependencies, and developer tooling.

Key bug fixes include updated linting rules, a transition to Cosmos SDK v0.53, migration to the latest Nolus-specific SDK fork, and full integration of the v0.8.0 upgrade handler. We’ve also introduced new unit tests to bolster protocol stability and regression coverage.
​

On the maintenance and chore side, we've removed the deprecated x/crisis module, bumped wasmvm to v2.2.3, upgraded to wasmd v0.54, and initiated support for ibc-go v10. While Transfer v2 support is not yet active, foundational work has been laid. We’ve also made initial efforts to reduce block time by 0.5s for faster transaction finality, alongside internal script refinements and dependency patching.

This release includes substantial commits related to IBC improvements, SDK upgrades with unordered transaction support, and cleanup of non-deterministic checks—further aligning the core with modern Cosmos SDK development best practices.
​

A fresh wave of user experience and performance upgrades has landed on the Nolus WebApp.

At the forefront is the integration of WalletConnect, currently in testing. This addition allows users to seamlessly connect mobile wallets and interact with Nolus on the go—bringing powerful DeFi tools to your fingertips, no matter where you are.
​

We've also introduced stop-loss and take-profit records to the historical data view, giving users richer context and better visibility into their position outcomes over time. The position close and repay popups have been fully redesigned for cleaner, more intuitive interactions, while localization support has expanded to 7 languages—with more translations on the way.

Finally, the app has undergone multiple bug fixes and general performance optimizations to ensure a smoother, more reliable experience across all user journeys.
