The Melon team is back! The month of October was filled with new developments and announcements, it's hard to even know where to begin. But before we dive into the highlights, we are proud to announce that together with M-1 conference on 7 & 8th of February 2019 in the Crypto Valley (Zug). If you attended



The biggest news of the month was unveiled at this year's Devcon in Prague: The Melon governance system. Debates around the right form of governance for decentralized applications are heated at the moment and we spent much time designing our model in a way that carefully considers all stakeholders. We hope that this will provide the grounds for a continued healthy Melon ecosystem growth after Feb 2019. It is our opinion that an independent, technically skilled and conflict-of-interest free council suits the future evolution of the Melon protocol best, which is why we will be handing over control over the protocol to the Melon Council upon completion. If you think you are suited for this role, feel free to apply to



As you all know by now, we are building the financial operating system for tomorrow's asset management. Part of this manifests itself in trading on non-custodial exchanges. We are happy to announce that we added the Kyber Network exchange to the list of integrated DEXs in October and aggregated all DEX order books for users! The list of all integrated DEXs to date is growing: OasisDex, 0x, ERCDex and most recently, Kyber Network. Besides giving fund managers access to the Kyber liquidity pool, we also contemplated the idea of using Kyber Network as an on-chain price feed for valuation, risk management, accounting, etc. More details can be found



Next up, Melon successfully made it on Ethfinex during the 11th listing vote. MLN is now available for trading on Bitfinex/Ethfinex. Thank you to all those in our community and beyond who voted!



We were also quite busy spreading the Melon vision. Mona El Isa attended the Web3 Summit in Berlin to present our token economics, which focusses on (i) capturing the growth of the network in the native token and (ii) providing a framework to incentivise the ecosystem players to continue to maintain and continue to innovate on Melon.



Jenna Zenk also hit the stage at Devcon 4 unveiling the governance model with a provocative title called: "Melonport will not exist by Devcon 5". During this talk, she detailed our governance system post deployment of Melon v1.0.



And last but not least, Hansen Wang presented at the "Decentralized Asset Management" meetup hosted by Ethfinex in London to present our unique approach to building a full stack asset management protocol compared to other projects working on the same problem.
