ENF Updates: Quarterly and Yield+ Reports, Yves on The Bit, and Scheduled Binance AMA
It's time again for the ENF Quarterly Report. Check out the new milestones reached and EOY initiatives like:
Introducing Monthly Operation & Health Reports
A new marketing team
Key hirings
Statistics and more
The Yield+ working group also provided its monthly report for January. The group’s success can be seen in an increase in network TVL (total value locked). In recognition, the ENF extended the program to a tune of 300K EOS. Other ENF updates center around marketing. CMO Patty Fisher joined a recent Fireside Chat. Yves was interviewed on The Bit (01, 02) and is scheduled for an AMA on Binance Earn (Feb. 17). Also, note that the Lunar New Year Giveaway has come to a close.
GameFi Unlimited Scalability on EOS
Gamers probably care more about multi-chain assets than the average crypto user. Creativity, competition, and excitement drive gamers to be explorative by nature. Introducing NFTs that exist on more than one chain opens up Web3 beyond even the vast ecosystem of the current web. Upland and Atomic Hub lead the way in demonstrating Web3’s potential. Yves La Rose also mentioned Upland alongside Hypha in their impact on the gaming economy. Is it any wonder why the ENF recently joined the Blockchain Game Alliance? A lot of innovations are interrelated. Check out Zack Gall’s list of “Why #EOS?” Likewise, the success and growth of DeFi combined with cross-chain NFT assets offer symbiotic benefits.
More about IBC
IBC remains the hottest topic lingering around EOS chats. Maybe it’s the involvement of a growing multi-chain community or the inclusion of new chains like WAX. NFTs on WAX are second to none. So the potential for profound social impact is great. IBC at its core provides a way for near-limitless scaling for AntelopIO-powered chains. TLOS and UTX demonstrate IBC potential by already using EOS as a liquidity hub for their trading pair. The power of IBC combined with instant finality was discussed by Brandon Lovejoy and others. The EOS ecosystem has become a blockchain developer’s dream environment. Cryptowisser recognized EOS’ hard work and recent growth. For more information, check out last month’s deep dive into Antelope IBC.
Everything EOS (new) Monthly Report
Everything EOS was crucial to both the early growth of the network and its transition to independence. That’s why it’s a pleasure witnessing its continued operation alongside the ENF. From weekly podcasts and festive events to becoming an integral member of the foundation, Everything EOS provides a certain reassurance through reliable information. Now, as a monthly report, Everything EOS joins the ENF in its mission to provide the community with a bird’s-eye-view of events. Read the first edition of Everything EOS’ monthly report for January 2023. A podcast version is available on all major platforms.
EOS Respect Election and EOS Support Monthly Report
EOS Support has provided for its accountability since its first day of operation. Read the January report to examine stats like:
Number of tickets EOS Support agents responded to
How it supports the community
Content dissemination
Impact through millions of social engagements
Independent, yet closely associated with EOS Support, is EOS Respect. The community just held its 6th election. 5 delegates were elected. More stats can be viewed in a statistical report. For those wishing to join an election or submit a project for affiliation, visit the EOS Respect website and/or contact an EOS Support Live agent.
Pomelo Fund Claims Open
The appeal period is over. Bad actors have been corralled. Fair players can now claim matching pool funds. If you participated in season 4, you’re encouraged to share your experiences. For those wishing to learn more about Pomelo and what qualifies as a public good, the team provides a wealth of helpful information and support. Read What’s a Public Good? and join the Telegram channel to get up to speed. Team Pomelo recognizes the benefits of a fun-loving environment. NFTs help in this regard (see S4 Grant Collectibles). For more analysis of season 4 and expectations for season 5, view Hot Sauce 186.
Standout Community Project News
With all the development by the ENF and funding/networking facilitated by Pomelo, one should expect more news than can reasonably be presented within a single newsletter. Below you’ll find a few bullets of projects that have recently stood out. I believe listing team Greymass as a bullet (rather than a dedicated section) illustrates just how far EOS has come.
EOS Asia proposed an MSIG allowing for direct, ongoing funding from the eosio.savings account
Greymass dedicated a new post on key security
Word proof recorded a new podcast discussing trust solutions through mathematics
EOS Community Updates: Keeping Promises
Chief Delegates, Level-1 delegates, and other members of Eden continue to coordinate their efforts. One project worth extra attention is #Recaps Eden_Delegate_Commitments which lists each new delegate’s promise. The telegram group is the brainchild (election promise) of Lennie Niit. Further evidence of a community working together was seen on a recent BP call. Delegates of all levels still meet for what was once solely held for CDs. 👇 more weekly resources for exciting news from around the community
