Yo! If you need a quick happiness injection before you read the rest of this email, go ahead and listen to this first 😉 Other than playing that tune on repeat, we've been busy as usual. I don't wanna drag on and on, so... Here's the deal: 1. We are going to integrate Tron and EOS into PlasmaChain We know many in the Ethereum community will view this as a controversial move. But if you take the time to read the article — we think you'll resonate with our arguments for why this is a great move for Ethereum's future. Plus, our goal has always been to give developers what they want — so, this is going to make them VERY happy. Imagine DApp developers having access to users on all major blockchains at the same time. Actually, there's no need to imagine it, because it's about to become a reality. It's not just Tron or EOS either. Earlier this year, we announced our integration with Cosmos. In reality, if a fast-growing blockchain comes into existence in the future, we'd be more than happy to integrate with it. Because, at the end of the day, our decision to integrate with any chain is largely dependent on transaction volume. Anyway, you should... 👉 Learn how and why we are going to integrate Tron and EOS into PlasmaChain Don't forget that... 2. Neon District's Founder's Sale is now live! Remember, I reminded you about Neon District a few weeks ago? It's one of the MOST promising futuristic RPG games running on top of the Loom SDK. In my last update, I told you about getting on a waitlist for their Founders sale. Well, my friend — you can now relax because the founder's sale is currently live! 👉 Get in on the Founders Sale action right now Unless you've been living under a rock, you should know... 3. How Crypto Is Transforming the Gaming Ecosystem By now, it should be obvious that games are a HUGE focus for us. In fact, last year, I wrote about how blockchain games will be the biggest trojan horse to surprise 'experts'. Then, James wrote another excellent piece about how games will be the catalyst for mass blockchain adoption. I HIGHLY recommend that you read both of those articles. Well, this week, our friend Felix Lutsch from Chorus One (Another one of our PlasmaChain validators) wrote a piece on how crypto is transforming the gaming ecosystem. In other words, I am about to hand you the holy trinity of blockchain gaming articles 😉 Go ahead and... 👉 Read about how crypto is transforming the gaming ecosystem If you've ever been paranoid about your funds being SAFU, read about... 4. The Importance of Validator Security If you are new to hardware security keys... Our very own Mike wrote an excellent article about what hardware security modules are and why we require our validators to use them. The point is: we deal with security very very seriously. In fact, you can ask one of our current validators about all of our security measures. Here's Michael Ng from Stakewith.Us (another PlasmaChain validator) telling you all about... 👉 How a Loom validator uses hardware security modules to keep your funds SAFU Last but, not least... 5. Our secret project: Loom Records has launched! (with Justin Sun's first hip hop album) This is probably going to come as a shock, but since late last year, we've been working on launching a hip hop record label. Since we got busy with our bigger projects like Zombie Battleground and PlasmaChain, we had to put this idea on hold. That is, UNTIL NOW. In fact, the planets finally aligned, and the universe has brought Justin Sun to Loom Records in order to launch his first Album. The reason we have decided to enter the music business (as Loom Records, a subsidiary of Loom Network) is simply that... We realized hip-hop music is the best vehicle to spread blockchain technology to the masses. It's not a "normal" approach for a blockchain company... but the strategy is sound enough that we are going to run with it. If you are curious, go ahead and... 👉 Get the details on Justin Sun's debut EP, Enter the Sun ^ There's also an easter egg hidden on that page. See if you can solve it 😉 Oh, before I forget: As of today, you all have staked over a whopping 125+ MILLION LOOM TOKENS, that's almost 20% of the circulating supply! 😲 Those are all the MAJOR updates for today 😉 See ya again in two weeks! Until next time... Your friend, —Dilanka P.S—A lot of you seem to enjoy intellectual conversations involving technology, so take a look at Yuval Harari and Tristan Harris talking about some of the darker sides of technology. It's very very good. |
