Project Updates
This month began with several community focused posters and videos related to the ZCG election encouraging greater participation.
We were joined by iBek from Unstoppable Wallet in the latest installment of the ZecHub Podcast. We covered the new Zcash development work done by their team - check out the full episode on our channel!
Thanks to Vito Meile dVPN looked into the BTCPay Server plugin for Zcash. Using the ZecHub guide @FreQnik from MathNodes was able to quickly integrate orchard payments. We followed up with a community call held with Sentinel and Meile dVPN hosted by squirrel. Meile has since added Namada to their native IBC payments and are actively looking into Penumbra.
Vito did post production on the Z|ECC interview with Daira Emma, curated editions of Shielded News and created clips from the Arborist Call.
Dismad tested Zkool on multiple platforms in addition to several Bug reports for the wallet, he updated data sources for ZecHub Dashboard and took part in the Crosslink Milestone 4B workshop. The Crosslink Badges were sent to all participants that completed the form. If you took part and would still like one please comment!
We held a fun Quiz night with the community on World Flags, Zcash & then played a game of Geoguessr. We have also welcomed and onboarded Kroy and Tron to ZecHub operations!
