Introduction to Laita Labs:

We are a team of builders, developers, and DeFi optimists working on building scalable protocols and products. We believe crypto mass adoption will come from scalable infrastructure and UX.

The Laita Labs team initially started building the first version of ParaSwap in 2019. Since then, ParaSwap has grown well beyond its initial scope, reaching over 105 billion in trading volume right as it rebranded to Velora. Now, Laita Labs is hoping to assist Velora DAO on its mission of achieving even greater crosschain and intent-centric scalability.

To assist with further transparency of our operations and our contributions to the growth of the protocol, we are starting this thread to share what the team has been working on lately. These updates will cover fully released products, integrations, and more.

Disclosure:

While Laita Labs ensures the best effort in achieving the best possible growth and building state-of-the-art software, it cannot guarantee the protocol’s success, as this can depend on external factors outside of Laita’s control, as well as the effort of other DAO contributors.

Gm,

We’re pleased to kick off this thread with our exciting April’s Updates and achievements:

Over the past few months, our main focus has been on executing the Project Miró roadmap, which was passed by the DAO in PIP 56, which led into the introduction of Velora as a first step (with more great surprises coming soon! :fire:).

In addition to the branding changes, Laita Labs worked on major product developments in preparation for the expansion. These included the introduction of a new Explorer as well as an update to the branding of https://app.velora.xyz/ . Additionally, Laita Labs introduced the new Cross-chain swapping system across the networks Delta was deployed in.

Now, without further ado, let’s dive into the updates:

Velora DAO - May 2025 Update

Gm Velorans,

We’re thrilled to share the May 2025 updates from Laita Labs, highlighting our progress and achievements.

1. Token Migration & Staking

Following the outline established in the Miró Roadmap, many of our efforts in the month of May have been in regards to the development and preparations needed for the new token, VLR. Some notable work from our side includes:

  • Integration of the Superchain standard for the VLR token.
  • Development of the VLR migrator contract and the VLR staking module. As part of this process, Laita Labs successfully audited, deployed and tested all contracts. As outlined in PIP-60, Laita Labs developed a one-click migration with cross-chain support .
  • Additionally, the VLR token is now officially listed on both CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap.

2. Product & Infrastructure Enhancements

May included upgrades on all aspects of Velora, from the underlying liquidity sources to the SDK and UI of the product:

  • DexLib integrations expanded to include:
    • Uniswap V4 on Avalanche
    • Balancer V3 on Optimism
    • Fluid DEX on Base
    • ArenaDEX
  • Velora’s DEX Pool tracking and discovery process was significantly improved.
  • ParaSwap SDK was upgraded to Velora SDK
  • Velora.xyz UI was redesigned: introducing multichain token selector and an updated main page.

3. Protocol Growth & Partnerships

4. Community & Governance

Finally, as part of our community facilitation efforts, members of the Laita Labs team continued their support for both our DAO as well as the wider DeFi community:

Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being part of the Velora journey! :rocket:
