Well, that’s a wrap on 2021 and it’s been a pretty amazing year. Since our launch in May, we have worked hard to grow our partner ecosystem with strategic and integration partnerships that strengthen our community and position GeroWallet as one of the top wallets for Cardano.

We’ve partnered with some of the leading Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs), top Cardano Decentralized Finance (DeFi) projects, and some of the most promising and highly anticipated Decentralized Apps (dApps) in the ecosystem — and this is only our first year.

Here’s a recap of all the GeroWallet partnerships of 2021. Have a read through and strap in for a jam packed 2022!

1) PARSIQ

On May 26, 2021, GeroWallet announced an integration partnership with PARSIQ. PARSIQ is a blockchain monitoring and workflow automation platform that serves as a multi-level bridge between blockchains and off-chain applications. This partnership will allow GeroWallet to reimagine the functionalities of a DeFi wallet.

PARSIQ will play a key role in analyzing market activity by performing real-time audits. Through this partnership, GeroWallet will be able to update their services with real-time data providing the accuracy and much needed edge for their users.
