The New EOS and ENF Anniversary

September 2022 is the month of the new EOS. Antelope Leap v3.1 goes live on the 21st day of this month. Let’s not forget how we got here. Yves La Rose went on Huobi Live to discuss both the new EOS and the Anniversary of the EOS Network Foundation. Yves describes the story of the new EOS in the following way:

If there’s one word that can be used to describe the $EOS community it's “resilient”...Despite our past struggles, #TheNewEOS is moving forward and we are stronger than ever before…The #EOS story started as a nightmare, but it WILL have a fairy-tale like ending.

The Huobi interview is a must watch for anyone wanting an overview of EOS’ history. The difference between the old and new EOS, as well as the role of B1, are clearly detailed. Backstories and important nuances add life to the present motivation and why the community is so confident for the future.

Counting Down the Leap 3.1 Launch

EVM, CDT, DUNE, IBC, Coalition, Yield+, Gamefi… here lies but the surface of Leap 3.1’s initial impact. The ENF began counting down the September 21 launch this week. The foundation also found the spotlight again ahead of Token2049. From Cryptonews August 31:

…EOSIO provides a way for developers to rapidly set up a blockchain for dApps…the perfect tonic to the network congestion and high gas fees…ENF heralded the launch as a “leap for freedom”, saying it marks a completely new era for EOSIO. This is not an understatement.

From Bitcoinist, September 1:

There has been tremendous excitement regarding EOS and its future direction from day one…developments will bring a breath of fresh air to the EOS ecosystem and all networks under the Antelope Coalition banner. Moreover, now that the community has a bigger say in these matters, the ecosystem can embrace decentralization and open-source code once again.

From LunarCrush, September 1:

…#eos community activity has rapidly increased over the past six months. Social engagements & shared links are up +55.31% & +103.8%...

The word is out. EOS stands out among blockchain technology. Now it’s ready to do more than disrupt. Rather, lead the space on a mainstream invasion.

EVMxIdeathon by ENF - Helios 

Up until recently, the primary marketer for EOS EVM was the ENF. Attracting Helios’ networking influence, capital, and experience might be a sign of what to expect. There’s already a lot of excitement around connecting the EOS mainnet with the Ethereum community. Helios particularly stands out among organizational efforts in that, while it’s dedicated to EOS, the team targets a much broader market. One might even say that Helios operates throughout the whole blockchain space with an EOS heart. The ENF-Helios effort was tabbed an Ideathon. It’s goals include:

…to raise awareness of the EOS Ecosystem, to discover new talented teams and ideas, to inspire and empower the next wave of dApp developers to build amazing applications on Trust EVM.

The 8-week event will combine idea pitches with a hackathon. Just imagine the response as the blockchain world learns what the EOS community already knows. Imagine the potential as the community grows larger and discovers how to masterfully implement Leap 3.1!

Contractor Developer Toolkit

With its latest announcement and release date set for the first iteration of Antelope, the ENF must believe the Contract Developer Toolkit v3.0.0-rc3 is ready. Not much has been said about the new WebAssembly / smart contract toolkit up until this point. As other projects like Yield+, the Trust Network, and the Coalition prepare for Leap 3.1, the quality of the new toolkit remains crucial. Launching Antelope Leap 3.1 must demonstrate substantial mastery over every other EOSIO upgrade of the past. In the ENF’s own words, the CDT is:

…a C/C++ toolchain targeting WebAssembly (WASM) and a set of tools to facilitate development of smart contracts written in C/C++ that are meant to be deployed to an Antelope blockchain.

Also mentioned within the GitHub summary are:

  • Optimizations 
  • Experimental features
  • Ubuntu support
  • Integration
  • Installation 

Sponsored Discord Growth

Earn EOS for helping grow the community Discord. Part celebration of reaching 5K, part motivation to grow to 10K, members compete to win prizes. Chances to win at every 1K new member interval. More than 1K EOS will be distributed to winners. Complete details can be found on the ENF blog. Noteworthy is the leaderboard resets at every 1K interval prize-level, as well as a cumulative reward at 10K. Why is there so much being invested into this community growth competition? Simply, EOS is ready. Antelope leads a development initiative that may very well be unparalleled throughout blockchain. The new EOS finds support for Antelope leap 3.1 across the board. The development team's confident rollout is illustrated by this extravagant rewards-for-growth competition.

Yield+ Update

EOS' new liquidity program went live this week. Dennis Carriere and Zack Gall appeared on Fireside Chat to discuss program sign up and important features. For regular users, a key takeaway was the Yield+ beta status. Programs will have ample time to test out their individual reward setups prior to the full release. Timing the beta a few weeks ahead of the launch of Antelope Leap 3.1 has additional advantages for coding and ecosystem adjustments. Both aspects expect to increase in complexity as more options become available. Make no mistake, the new EOS is easier to develop on. However, launching Leap 3.1 will likely be met with an initial adjustment period.

Eden on EOS

Last week, Anchor was mentioned in this section hoping for an official update. Lead developer Aaron Cox was on Around the Block to discuss Web3 wallets. Eden was recently added as a new DAO on Hypha. To login you’ll need Telos configured on Anchor (or Seeds). This could be the beginning of effective governance spreading across the ecosystem. Eden Proxy was just updated. Eden may not seem to be flexing its muscle, but its growing influence is becoming undeniable. Impact occurs on several fronts. Eden community has adjusted Fractally to better fit its needs, CDs have direct impact on more than bylaws, and independent efforts find ways to employ Eden technology. To gauge its full impact, one must also factor in what the mainnet might look like without Eden. Join us on Eden discord and GoFractally to see how the community prepares to Leap into the future. Here’s the list of regularly scheduled community events and info:

Fractally: Membership on the Rise, Demo, and Dashboard

Fractally on the verge of a new team? The Genesis fractal currently has 5 teams (in order of creation):

  • Team fractally
  • EOS Translation Foundation
  • Fractally in Orbit
  • fractally francophonie
  • Eden fractal

A Bitshares fractal seems around the corner. With weekly meetings and three committed members, Bitshares only needs one more diehard to establish representation on Genesis. The Bitshares effort has been gaining attention within the growing fractal community. Bitshares aims to have its own fractal to help govern a fractal token and NFT exchange. Another fractal with high hopes and an amazing use case comes out of Alien Worlds. AW is a hybrid game/DAO. Fractally would bring nextgen governance to one of the most played games in all of blockchain. AW recently announced inaugural elections (specific to the game) for October 10. Exploration opens to the public on September 26. For Genesis fractal fans, know that Matt Langston diligently keeps current his dashboard stats. Note that the vote on the Interim Genesis Fractal Consensus Addendum I was postponed until next week. Each fractal below offers their own participation rewards across different chains:

  • Genesis (independent) - learn consensus fundamentals
  • Eden (EOS) - contribute to the mainnet
  • Alien Worlds (WAX) - a gaming DAO experiment
  • Bitshares (on takeoff roll) - exchange on seasoned DPoS tech
  • Hispana - a unique process by Spanish speakers

For those wanting to learn more directly from the community, check out recent Hive articles by merivercapshakhruz (fractally report), auguerrido (Hispania), and highsteam1900 (Bitshares); also, fractally Telegram recaps (same as above). Join the discussion, make contributions, and inquire here.
