We have had significant issues with resourcing talent to deliver Bumper in a timely fashion, however, we’ve had a major boost with the recent onboarding of a top-tier development house, Digital Mob, the team responsible for some huge protocols, including MakerDAO and BarnBridge.Bringing Digital Mob on board has been a coup for us here at Bumper, as these guys are arguably some of the world’s top Web3 developers at delivering complex decentralised solutions.</p><p>Click <a href="https://www.bumper.fi/roadmap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a> to see exactly where we are on our roadmap.</p><h2 id="header-5">Issues with token slippage</h2><p>Some users have reported issues with using UniSwap v3 for trading BUMP tokens. This is due to the price tick ranges in this price band, which has been exacerbated by significant moves in the token price over the last few weeks.</p><p>We are actively investigating possibly moving to UniSwap v2 to alleviate this issue and will provide an update shortly.</p><h2 id="header-6">Brand &amp; Marketing</h2><p>As the engineering work continues, we are also now focusing on 2 very key areas for the protocol, the brand and the marketing of Bumper. We have for some time been working alongside brand experts to develop a fresh brand identity for the protocol. At the same time, we are also now testing various strategies for encouraging users to join our community and learn about Bumper.</p><h2 id="header-7">Epoch Closure</h2><p>As a reminder, our existing Epoch programme has now closed and users who have deposited USDC are encouraged to withdraw their funds. Note, this does not affect those users who are currently staking BUMP tokens via the Bumper dApp.</p><h2 id="header-8">Office Hours</h2><p>Our next Office Hours live stream will be taking place on <strong>Thursday, 16 February 2023 at 10am UTC</strong>: Make sure you’re subscribed to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/BumperFinance" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">our channel</a> to get an alert when we go live.</p><p>Watch the full live stream of our previous <a href="https://youtu.be/vXTGuvo3KeY" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Office Hours session on Youtube</a>.
