**Mendi Finance will rebrand to Malda this Thursday (Feb 20th).** This marks another major step in our transition, here’s a look at the changes that will be introduced in the rebranding.

### **Update to Our Social Profiles**

New Name on Socials (ie: X, Discord, DeBank, etc.): **Malda (prev. Mendi Finance)**  
Tag: **@malda\_xyz**

### **I’m supplying / borrowing on Mendi, what should I do?**

Your lending and borrowing positions are unaffected by the migration—Mendi contracts **will remain live forever**.

When Malda mainnet launches, you’ll have the option to migrate. Keeping your positions open until then is beneficial, as **migration will be incentivized on a time-weighted basis.**

A migrator UI will be provided to facilitate a simple migration. [mendi.finance](http://mendi.finance) frontend will remain available for the foreseeable future.

### **I hold / stake $MENDI. What should I do?**

$MENDI will remain tradable on the market until the $MALDA TGE. $MENDI to $MALDA migration will officially take place at $MALDA TGE.

**$MENDI and staked $MENDI can be migrated over directly**, eliminating the need to unstake before migrating.

Staking rewards **won’t be affected at all until Malda mainnet**. After the Malda mainnet, stakers will continue to receive oLYNX rewards (according to [RFC 11](https://gov.mendi.finance/t/rfc-lynex-bribes-during-transition/245)) and boosted Malda points.

Expect TGE to happen a couple months after Malda mainnet launch.

### **I am providing liquidity for $MENDI on a DEX, what should I do?**

$MENDI trading will remain live until Malda TGE, along with Bribes on Lynex pool (according to [RFC 11](https://gov.mendi.finance/t/rfc-lynex-bribes-during-transition/245)).

**LP providers will be notified in timely manner to withdraw their liquidity** before the POL is withdrawn (which will only occur at $MALDA TGE). $MALDA TGE is expected to happen couple of months after Malda mainnet launch. After withdrawing their LP, users can manually migrate their $MENDI tokens to $MALDA and then re-add their LP for $MALDA.

As always, we are open to any suggestions on this matter on [Discord](https://discord.gg/WxCQMwPXAy), for more convenient solutions.
