David Liu is a blockchain developer and is in charge of smart contracts, Blockchain integrations, and mogul platform architecture.
In a recent development AMA session at the mogul community which had him as guest, Liu talked about the major roadmap and development at mogul. You can find a recap of the AMA on mogul blog here. However, in case you are not free for a long read, below are some key takeaways from the session.
- The development team is actively working on the quadratic voting and movie nft module, nft market place, and the mogul smart wallet
- The team is also working on building different bridges, polygon infrastructure, smart contracts, and fiat onramps amongst others which will be released gradually over the next few months.
- Bsc, eth, and polygon network integrations are used together to create bridge for stars on the respective blockchain networks.
- The team’s focus is more on ensuring mogul’s products are user-friendly especially as more Hollywood and non-crypto people will be joining the platform. Hence, the products will be easy to understand and use.
- Mogul, being the first Blockchain voting protocol to determine offline event (movie making), has unique staking and voting system.
- Mogul smart wallet contracts are already completed, audited, and currently being integrated by front and back end teams.
-Mogul smart wallet is secure, recoverable, and is username-based to ensure easy access to defi
- Anyswap is used as a bridge to transfer stars tokens between bsc, polygon, and mainnet (ethereum) networks.
- Mogul draws inspiration from top projects for its key features. Its staking inspiration is drawn from Sushiswap; its nft market is inspired by Opensea; while its governance system is inspired by Compound protocol. These projects are currently the leaders in their respective niches.
