It's gunna be a big week...

Image

Nah, not because Trump and Kim are BFF's... and Idiocracy is becoming a fact of life...

It's because we've been MAD BUSY with 2 MAJOR projects...

First...

I know I've been teasing you about a "big announcement" for the past week or two.

That thing I've been meaning to tell you about is ONE of the "major projects"—and I won't be revealing it today...but I WILL be covering it in a few days

Yes, that means you should expect a bonus email from me this week with a special announcement! 😉

Speaking of major projects, I am super excited to let you know that...

 

1) LOOM SDK IS NOW PUBLIC! 🎉

Image

As you know, this is a HUUUGE deal.

...our Dev team has given up food and relationships in order to make this happen and meet the deadline.

Considering that Loom SDK will be the easiest way for ANY blockchain developer to quickly deploy scalable, decentralized DApps on Ethereum—you are going to see some INSANE uses of it in the future.

...along with the SDK release, James also covered: 
  1. How developers can start using the SDK today
  2. What it means to the blockchain community (even if you are not a developer)
  3. Our upcoming roadmap and milestones
  4. How the LOOM Token can be used in the future

Keep in mind that the official announcement is a bit long, but if you only have time to read ONE thing this week, make sure it's this one 😉

If you missed it...
 
👉 You should read about the Loom SDK release

Speaking of the SDK...
 

2) Axie Infinity, a game that lets you collect, breed and battle fantasy pets is now using Loom SDK!

If you've ever had a fantasy about throwing your Pit Bull inside an octagon with your neighbors Chihuahua (who keeps peeing on your arugula patch) in an MMA death match — Axie Infinity is for you 😘

With Axie Infinity — you'll be able to do that legally, with adorable fantasy pets that keep evolving.

If you missed the announcement, Axie Infinity is one of the latest games to use Loom's SDK to add advanced functionality to their game. 

👉 Read all about how Axie Infinity will be using Loom's SDK.  

...and in Professor George's Geek Skool, we'll be covering...
 

3) WTF is Delegated Proof of Stake? (for the geeks)

Image

When I first got into crypto, I thought DPoS was an acronym that stood for some dirty word that originated in Boston.

Boy, was I wrong!

Turns out it's a lot more interesting (and elegant) than that.

So, if you've ever been confused about DPoS, you should...

Also, this week, we have a guest post from Vincent (from DApp.Review) about...
 

4) The Evolution and the Future of Blockchain Games 

Image

By the way...

We don't normally do "guest posts", but if your post fits into Loom Network's thesis in some manner and is of LEGITIMATE VALUE to the community, we might be interested in posting your article on our (wildly popular) blog.

If you think you fit the criteria, hit me up. 

Anyway, this post is from Vincent and it covers how Blockchain games came to be and the future of it.

In other words, China's biggest mobile game platform is now integrated with Loom DAppChains.

Those are all the recent updates.


Like I mentioned earlier, the Loom SDK being publicly released is by far the BIGGEST news this week.

...and since I have one more big announcement this week until the water is calm again, I am going to go get some sleep now (it's 4:40 AM in San Diego as I write this) 😐
 

Stay tuned for the bonus email in a couple of days!


Your friend,
