Stratis Sidechain Application

Last week Stratis released their application form to begin the enrollment process of the Stratis Sidechain Masternodes. You can now apply to become a Masternode operator on the Cirrus sidechain by completing the form on this page. You will need to run the Stratis KeyGen utility that can be obtained via the link here.

Stratis also made a significant change based on the community feedback, Stratis announced that the collateral will now be held within a Stratis Mainchain wallet allowing token holders to continue staking while securing the Cirrus Sidechain.

You can read the full announcement here.

AMA With CEO Chris Trew On Cryptocopia

The CEO of Stratis, Chris Trew, held a live AMA (Ask Me Anything) last week through the Cryptocopia Community. It has been a while since the last AMA, so the community of Stratis was more than excited.

With over 200 questions from the community, there was enough to talk about, the AMA held by Michael Chrupcala was a great success. Chris Trew answered a lot of the questions in the one hour live AMA.

If you missed the AMA, have a look here. Thanks again to Cryptocopia and Mike for hosting this.

There were a lot of unanswered questions, Chris already promised to answer all the unanswered questions, probably through an official blog.

Stratis community member Hieu‏ made an excellent thread with the highlights of the AMA.

1,000 $STRAT Giveaway

Stratis decided to do a giveaway, a 1,000 $STRAT giveaway for the AMA, ten people for 100 $STRAT each. All you had to do was asking your question for the AMA. Congratulations to all the winners, Stratis will contact you.

Interview Jeremy Bokobza

Last week I had the privilege to interview Jeremy Bokobza one of the earliest Blockchain Developers at Stratis Platform and now the Head of Engineering.

I want to thank the community for everything they’ve done to support us and promote our work during all these bleak bear market months.

Regular Updates And $STRAT Token

Last week Chris Trew stated the following in the Stratis Discord. If you aren’t a member of the Stratis Discord, you can join here.

As requested by the community we will be bringing back our regular project updates, in the form of a monthly update encompassing updates for all projects. This will be released in the first week of every month, starting next week.

This week we should see our first monthly update!

Chris also shared a few words about the $STRAT token.

2019 is all about STRAT, adding features and functionality that requires STRATs to functions, bringing the value and utility we have not had up until now. Everyone that has supported us will be rewarded. This is all I want personally.

Community Development

Clint.Network, an active Stratis Community Developer, shared some new features on his website https://stratis.guru/.

One of the features is the Cold Staking Activation Progress. You can see a bar and track progress when Cold Staking is activated on Stratis. You can follow the progress here.

Clint also shared that the next phase on Stratis.Guru is to reopen the Lottery with a new ticket system which will be more fun and fair. You can follow the lottery here.

And last but not least Clint made a new feature, if you want to ask for donations you can share your donation link and you can add a custom message to it.
