Flix Fam, last week’s article was quite long summarizing everything we did in the last 3 months. This one will be straight to the point. Let’s dive right into Community Update #37.

Key Highlights

ecosystem news and updates from last week

1) Engineering

  • From a protocol standpoint, we’ve been focused towards contribution for the LBPv2 module on Osmosis.
  • We are also planning on the bidding module within the marketplace module.
  • As an important note for the Relayers, the connection between channel 27 on Terra (Terra-1 chain) and channel-4 on OmniFlix Hub (OmniFlixHub-1) has been retired considering no user funds were locked within. Thank you to the efforts of the CryptoCrew Validators team and the Notional team that have been supporting us with relaying IBC transactions, right from the start.

ℹ️ NOTE: Relayers are requested to stop relaying between Terra (old chain, columbus-5) and the current OmniFlix Hub.

  • The application engineering team is focused on putting together OmniFlix Me up for a release in the next few weeks👇
