Welcome to the sixth edition of the Expanse Newsletter for 2018. This publication is a bi-monthly newsletter issued on the 1st and 15th of each month to share happenings within our community. Keep in mind that breaking news can come at any time, but the Expanse Newsletter is a great overview of progress, news, and our current focus.

EXPANSE BRAND REFRESH WEBSITE LAUNCHED

Our long awaited brand refresh and new website has launched! We are thrilled to report that the response has been overwhelmingly positive. The past websites were functional and worked, but we really felt we had to take the time to make this the best we could. As we were making it, more features just kept creeping in and being added, to make it even better. The Expanse community now has a vastly superior website that is clean, simple, informative, and most importantly, engaging and unique rather than ‘blockchain-boring.

Another advantage of this refresh is that we can now quickly modify and improve it when needed, which can be often. Updating it is highly efficient and allows changes without wasting too much time or precious resources. Without a doubt, this is a night and day improvement to the site, which is the very first place most people will start checking out Expanse. Our website is essentially like an open home that we show to the world and then invite inside, so it makes complete sense to build it up the curb appeal and make it the best house on the block. That is what we are doing.

Please check it out for yourself if you have not already, and if you hold Expanse, remember that the community, that is all of us, is truly what will make Expanse grow or remain a hidden gem. Every like, share, tweet, even a simple emoji smile builds our community and project stronger, happier, more productive. More likely to actually make a real difference in our lives and the world. So please make sure and check out the new site and share with others if you really want Expanse to grow.

STREAM MINING EXP

The Expanse team is proud to announce we have created ‘the world’s first’ stream mining system powered by the tech of tokenlab. This is a unique system for “mining” Expanse by watching our live Twitch streams. Disclaimer: This does not secure the blockchain. That is done with traditional proof of work mining, but this is a way to earn rewards akin to mining without needing all the hardware. Easy as it can be, you can use any computer or mobile device that can watch a Twitch stream to stream mine EXP. Here is a quick summary of how simple and easy this all is to earn your free rewards:

Sign up for twitch. Go to www.twitch.tv/expanseofficial Just have the stream open,

You earn 1 EXPB (Expanse Bits) per 10 min just for being in there lurking.

If you have twitch prime, you can subscribe and earn even more EXPB.

EXPB can be used at the streamelements.com/expanseofficial/store to buy expanse and a T-shirt.

If there is any of this you do not understand, the amazing Expanse community would love to help with any questions. Simply join the Expanse Discord to chat with one of the friendliest and more helpful communities out there, link below:

INTERLEDGER PROTOCOL OF RIPPLE XRP

Expanse is one of the first Alternative Blockchain projects to join ILP, Interledger protocol of Ripple. There are a few “Internet of Blockchain” projects out there, but this is perhaps the most promising of them all. Expanse is staying ahead of the curve and ready, just in case this works out and is a success. It is an open source project and anyone can join, but the Expanse team was one of the first to sign up to be a part of it back in September 2016.

SHOPPING WITH EXPANSE MADE EASY BY COINPAYMENTS

You can shop at many merchants right now using the Coinpayments Platform. We are one of the Alternative Tokens listed on Coinpayments, and they are a reliable trustworthy payment provider that works much like Bitpay does for Bitcoin.
