Tortola, BVI, 24th October, 2021,
Pontem is excited to announce that after 3 months, they have achieved Milestone #1 of Parity’s Substrate Builder’s grant program. This program sponsored by Parity, the developers of the Polkadot blockchain, allows projects that are building Substrate-based blockchains, applications, or ecosystem components to receive support for technical challenges, strategy, and ecosystem building from Parity’s extensive experience and resources.
Pontem is one of over 50 projects that has been accepted into the Substrate Builders Program, and receives support from Parity Technologies on their technical and community roadmaps, as well as setting predetermined milestones to achieve their goals and launch their project.
As part of the Builder’s Program, Pontem has recently completed Milestone #1, which includes the following accomplishments:
- Launching their own Parachain
Pontem converted their standalone Substrate blockchain to a Parchain using the Cumulus framework and the Nimbus consensus extensions.
