New CDs Meet with Yves La Rose, Bywire, and NovaCrypto

ENF CEO Yves La Rose again took the time to meet with this quarter’s Chief Delegates. The interview was moderated by Bywire founder, Michael O’Sullivan. Each delegate briefly introduced themselves and gave an overview of what they plan to accomplish this term. Novacrypto also interviewed each delegate independently; actually, Novacrypto’s interviews occurred first, immediately following the election. The new Chief Delegates did meet on their own this week. You’ll find a summary and link to their first meeting on Odysee here. Fourth term CD’s have moved slower than others of the past, but nevertheless, appear just as committed. Who knows, maybe a more carefully planned early-go will pan out. CDs IV do have more to work with, building off of the efforts of past administrations.

ENF Q3 Report

The EOS Network Foundation’s Q3 report was released this week. It outlines and overviews:

  • The New EOS
  • Antelope re-branding
  • Go-to-Market Strategy
  • Funding (Pomelo and direct grants)
  • Ecosystem investments (HyphaDAO, .gems, EOS Support, EVMxIdeathon, OCI)
  • Working Groups
  • Coalition+
  • Leap v3.1, CDT, DUNE
  • Operations and Financials

Each of the topics above have been discussed in previous EOS Briefings weekly newsletters. The ENF nicely organizes and composes the quarter’s events for the community to gain a clearer picture of what’s possible now and what can be accomplished in the future. At the end of the report, you’ll find highlights for Q4 2022 and Q1 2023. Also note that Yves La Rose took time this week to discuss DeFi, the ineffectiveness of bridges when compared to IBC, and securing brand-named VCs.

EOS Respect Holds 3rd Election

There was another community election this week. EOS Respect Election #3 shined brighter than the previous 2. View statistics on EOS Support. Note that EOS Respect holds monthly elections as compared to Eden’s quarterly ones. Both EOS Respect and EOS Support are actively pursuing easily measurable metrics for the EOS Network and growing ecosystem. Note that EOS Respect is independent of EOS Support. EOS Support is a company, a community too, but a private one. EOS Respect is an independent community. In terms of the impact of ER election #3, the effort began as a smaller enterprise than Eden on EOS. The starting treasury was also much smaller than Eden- albeit it recently increased. EOS Respect’s community is more selective than Eden’s. The focus is on active, measurable contributions and affiliated projects. EOS Respect monitors professional behavior among both its members and community-funded projects like Pomelo grants.

Pomelo Season 4 Update

Speaking of Pomelo, Grant Collection (NFT) packs went on sale this week. Pomelo NFTs can be used as avatars on the funding platform. Thus, collectors demonstrate their previous impact and commitment to the community. Learn more about how this season’s NFTs compare to previous seasons. A lot can be done with NFTs. Pomelo employs mixing and matching to construct rare NFTs. Also, while Pomelo has stated (in past seasons) that NFTs offer no rewards of substance, there remains opportunities to leverage community commitment. The opportunity also exists for independent community efforts to make use of Pomelo-linked veteran contributions.

Trust EVM Update

Trust EVM will likely remain the focus of weekly news topics through its launch. There’s just so much to look forward to. Trust EVM has already demonstrated better performance numbers than other Ethereum Virtual Machines. Since Ethereum has a larger community and market cap that’s more than hundred times the size of EOS, there's a real opportunity to further blockchain mass adoption. Also note that EOS was once ranked among the top 5 blockchains (in terms of market cap). So, a radical transformation of the EOS Network is neither unprecedented nor unwarranted. Projects built on EOS are nimble and innovative by default. Here’s some of this week’s Trust EVM highlights:

  • EVMxIdeathon (a hackathon/ideathon focused on EOS EVM development) reached 500 participants
  • Eden Capital points out that development was “as expected” given a Q3 delayed release 
  • New pitch event this week
  • Submission deadline is October 31

Yield+ Update

Where Trust EVM encourages development, Yield+ makes the token ecosystem more attractive. Campaigning exchanges to list EOS/USDT was among the ENF’s first objectives. Huobi and Binance exchanges were discussed this week. Zack Gall, Yves, and  Denis Carriere explained the need for Yield+ in the video, Accelerating EOS DeFi Adoption with Native USDT Exchange Listings:

“...with Yiled+ we’re going to be adding on-chain incentives to attract liquidity providers … and (for that) you need Tether…” [4:15]

Also discussed was getting EOS to the point that it’s a rail for moving value on and off Ethereum. On October 17, Yield+ smart contracts were updated to subsidize earning by 5%. Yield+ transferred 300,000 EOS on its official launch day. Remember, it was just last week that the September 2022 Yield+ Report was released just ahead of last week’s full launch.

ENF on Tour: TOKEN2049 London

Does the ENF ever take a break? Maybe for an hour or so or to sleep. On a weekly basis though, even going on tour is a relentless pursuit. Don’t believe it? Check the tour schedule. You can verify past events via ENF twitter and/or previous EOS Briefings’ newsletters. Marketing for the November 9-10 event in London began this week. For those that recall TOKEN2049 in Singapore, the global impact still resonates. The ENF must be doing something right, because Yves is now listed among the European speakers. Visit TOKEN2049 Europe to view a schedule of events and partners.

Eden on EOS

Eden on EOS is in transition on a couple of fronts. The most obvious is getting new CDs to synchronize their efforts. You can view initial attempts to do just that in the first entry above in the interview with Yves, and/or viewing the first meeting of the new CD below. Christ Barnes, the most decorated Eden on EOS CD, was first to discuss his plan for this fourth term. The other front upon which Eden is transitioning likely determines the future of underlying technology (EdenOS). The Fractally team developed EdenOS for the community and recently concluded its (scheduled) participation of weekly Saturday meetings. Now, bear in mind that Fractally had already yielded EdenOS development to the community. However, the potential to adopt a Fractally operating system (or parts of it) is no longer an option. The team did leave the future open and maintains that a lack of regulatory clarity ultimately determined its decision. Note that EOS Support identified a new scam.
