Our previous builder spotlight showed how recovery markets get safer when updates arrive privately. This time, the baton passes to ApeBond, an on-chain OTC/bonding marketplace for discounted, time-vested tokens, now live with iExec Private Messaging. It’s fast adoption with immediate utility: private, confidential notifications when new bonds are created.

Let’s break down how ApeBond brings bonds on-chain and how to join the $900 reward pool.

About ApeBond 

ApeBond helps you access tokens at a discount with clear, time-based vesting. Before you buy, you see the price, cap, and exact unlock schedule; everything is on-chain and auditable. It’s permissionless: browse live bond offers, subscribe if the terms fit, then claim as tokens vest and settle per contract. 

You also get private alerts via iExec Private Messaging (email or Telegram) for new bond openings and milestone updates, so you can act early, quietly, and on your own terms.

Privacy: The New Standard in DeFi

This partnership demonstrates that privacy in DeFi is no longer optional. Participants expect confidential, secure interactions. Together, iExec and ApeBond make bonding more trustworthy by making private communication the norm. 

ApeBond and iExec are aligned on making DeFi fundraising sustainable (structured issuance) and trustworthy (private communication) throughout this long-term partnership. It’s a foundation for community trust, ownership, and scalable governance.

iExec Private Messaging: Behind New Bond Alerts

Updates come from ApeBond on iExec’s Arbitrum infrastructure. ApeBond gives bond buyers confidential, noise-free alerts the moment a new bond goes live, on their terms, not in public threads. Users choose email or Telegram and can update/revoke anytime. 

Delivered via iExec Private Messaging (Web3Mail or Web3Telegram), alerts are opt-in and fully configurable. Privacy is built in: Chat IDs and emails are encrypted, and preferences stay private. 

iExec makes privacy easy to build with. Our ready-to-use tools integrate in no time.
