Portkey is thrilled to introduce V1.17.0, an update designed to enhance user experience by providing quick access to key user interests through various exciting modules. Recognising the diverse interests of Web3 users, Portkey has refined the “Discover” section in the App into four distinct modules: dApp, Market, Earn, and Learn. Here’s an in-depth look at what each module offers:

dApp

The dApp module showcases all the projects that integrate with Portkey and support Portkey account login. All these projects are organised into categories such as AI, DeFi, NFT, Game, Bridge, and Tool, making it easier for users to find and engage with your favourite projects. You can explore popular dApps like Schrödinger, AwakenSwap, and Forest, and discover new projects that fit your interests.

Market

Adjacent to the dApp module, the Market module provides real-time data on mainstream and trending crypto assets. This includes vital statistics like current price, market cap, and 24-hour change. Whether you are a seasoned trader or a casual observer, the Market module helps you stay informed about the latest movements in the crypto world.

Earn

The Earn module is dedicated to helping users find and participate in ongoing earning programs. This includes stake-to-earn projects, community quest, and many other events that offer rewards. As an all-in-one entrance to earning opportunities within the aelf ecosystem, this module allows you to conveniently view and participate in various rewarding projects, enhancing your ability to earn through engagement and participation.

Learn

The Learn module is designed to keep you updated with the latest and most essential information about Portkey. Here, you’ll find update announcements, useful guides, and product-related knowledge that help you make the most of your Portkey journey.
