Development update

Among many other things, for the past two weeks the development team has been working on the following items:

Staking Sheriff first 20 sheriffs with successful BNTY staking and review process achieved.

Feedback and continuous improvement to staking and earnings to improve the flow even further.

Admin dashboards re-adjustment to streamline the review process.

Implementation of Onfido KYC reworked with document and selfie matching.

Civic KYC integration now hunters and sheriffs can choose to verify themselves either using Onfido or Civic.

Optimisation to API for quicker response times for vast range of endpoints.

Migration of API to new Spring stack and micro-services has commenced.

Migration of new cloud service provider commenced.

Beta launch

On July 18, the Bounty0x Beta went live. Along with many bug fixes and minor improvements, the Bounty0x Beta introduces the highly anticipated Bounty Sheriff staking functionality. From now on, users will be able to stake their BNTY to review submissions. When a correct review is made, sheriffs earn a small fee.

Check out our Beta announcement article to learn more.

Bounty Sheriff Beta testers

Two dozen sheriffs have already been invited to start using the Sheriff functionality and are actively staking BNTY and reviewing submissions. The next batch of invites will be sent out on August 6. Invited sheriffs will not only earn the right of being among the first to stake BNTY, but will also receive an invite to a private telegram group.

If you haven’t applied to the Sheriff Beta whitelist yet, you can do so here.

BNTY bounties

The first batch of rewards for the Bounty0x bounties have been sent out. We are truly impressed by the quality of some of the received submissions. Below is some of the work that was submitted to the “Bounty0x Telegram Sticker Bounty”.
