We are announcing today that Turtle will officially sunset on February 15. Our mission was to build the neat, seamless app needed to move any token through Polkadot without friction. We are proud to have facilitated over $10M in volume and supported the community in navigating cross-chain complexity. As the ecosystem’s focus shifts, we have decided to redeploy our resources toward new challenges. We want to thank our partners at ParaSpell, Snowbridge, and Parity for their incredible support throughout this journey. Thank you to every user who rode the waves with us.

Your direct on-ramp to concentrated yield: turtle.cool

You're using an L2 to save gas. Smart. But now your liquidity is fragmented, and finding deep yield is tough. The problem isn't L2s; it's the walls between them and the rest of DeFi. We built Turtle as the escape hatch. Use it to route your stables or $ETH from Arbitrum directly to high-demand lending pools on Polkadot parachains. Stop chasing tiny APYs across three different chains. Go where the demand is concentrated.

@kusamanetwork Your access pass to a new frontier of yield. turtle.cool

ing adventurous? Polkadot's canary network, @KusamaNetwork, is where DeFi gets wild. It’s an ecosystem of experimental parachains, often with higher-risk, higher-reward APYs for those willing to explore. But for an Ethereum user, getting $KSM and bridging it to the right parachain is a journey. Turtle is your direct on-ramp. Use it to swap ETH or USDC directly for $KSM and start exploring the Kusama ecosystem.

Your on-ramp to Bitcoin yield. turtle.cool

Want to earn yield with $BTC's price, but all your capital is on Ethereum? Meet $iBTC from @InterlayHQ. A trustless token that brings Bitcoin to Polkadot DeFi. You can provide liquidity with it on @Hydration_net and earn yield. Turtle is your direct on-ramp to this strategy. Swap your $ETH or $USDC from Ethereum directly for $iBTC on Hydration. One click, no complex bridging, no multi-step swaps.

@AcalaNetwork More options. More liquidity. More yield. turtle.cool

You know about liquid staking $DOT. But you have options. Beyond vDOT, there's $LDOT from @AcalaNetwork. You can stake your $DOT on their Homa protocol, get $LDOT back, and earn staking yield while staying liquid. Use it as collateral to mint $aUSD or deploy it across Acala's DeFi suite. Turtle is your on-ramp. Swap $ETH for native $DOT and bridge it to Acala, all in one flow.

Your on-ramp to Polkadot's concentrated returns is here: turtle.cool (DeFi is risky. High APYs imply risks, such as high utilization and smart contract risk. Always do your own research.)

That ~0.8% APY on your Ethereum USDC isn't because DeFi is dead. Your capital is just in the wrong place. Meanwhile, the Moonwell lending pool on @MoonbeamNetwork is humming. High utilization means there's real demand from borrowers. That demand is funding a highly competitive APY for USDC lenders. No complex schemes, just genuine, borrower-paid yield. Turtle is your simple on-ramp to get there. One step, no complex bridge-hopping.

Stop just being a user. Start earning from the apps you support. Your on-ramp to dApp Staking is here turtle.cool

What if you could earn yield just by supporting the apps you love? On Ethereum, you just use apps. On Astar, Polkadot's dApp hub, you can stake on them. Turtle is your direct on-ramp to this "Support-to-Earn" model. Swap ETH for DOT, bridge to Astar, and stake ASTR on your favorite dApps to earn a target APY of ~11-14%.

Your on-ramp to liquid yield is here 👇 turtle.cool

Don't just stake your DOT. Make it liquid. Native staking locks your capital, but liquid staking lets you earn rewards and stay active in DeFi. Turtle is your direct on-ramp. Swap ETH for native DOT, then mint vDOT on Bifrost to earn ~10.99% base APY while your capital stays liquid for a second yield.

Your direct path is here 👇 turtle.cool

The DeFi world is a labyrinth. The best opportunities? Usually hidden right in the center. Don't get lost trying to find them. Turtle provides the direct path, bypassing the walls and taking you straight to the strategic core: Polkadot's Asset Hub. From there, the entire ecosystem is at your command.

Stop getting lost in the chaos. Experience the simple path. Untangle your swaps now app.turtle.cool

Cross-chain swaps shouldn't feel like navigating a maze. Forget the tangled mess of confusing bridges, multiple DEXs, and risky routes. Turtle untangles that complexity into one simple, secure, and direct path for your assets. It's the powerful, yet effortless cross-chain experience you've been waiting for.
