Here’s a summary of updates from the last two weeks:

🤜 🤛 Connext building on Counterfactual

shared standards ftw

Earlier this week we announced that Connext will be building their v 2.0 on top of the Counterfactual framework. Over the last several weeks, we have been spending significant time working with the Connext team to on-board them to Counterfactual and help understand how they will be using it.

We see this as a major step forward for the adoption of open-source state channel frameworks as standards across the Ethereum ecosystem. You can read more in the announcement post here, and stay tuned for more information as work progresses!
