This week we added four new bounty hosts to the platform: Trendit, Delphy, Swissborg and aXpire. Bringing the total amount of bounties on the Alpha platform up to approximately $1.8m.

CanYa (CAN) bounties have been distributed.

After a very successful bounty campaign which started back in November, the CanYa bounty is now closed and 24,500 CAN tokens were distributed to Bounty Hunters.
