November 7 — Weekly Development Update

News and updates from Bounty0x development

In case you missed our last weekly update, we announced the launch of our full website, new partnerships, and plans for District0x integration. This week we are announcing among other things the Bounty0x anti-scam bot bounty hunter initiative to stop slack scams, rescheduling our pre-sale for after the Bitcoin fork, and our new bounty listings.

We’ve revised our pre-sale and main sale contribution period dates

The new dates are:

Pre-sale contribution period dates: November 20 — December 3

Main sale contribution period dates: January 10 — February 10

In light of the upcoming bitcoin fork scheduled for mid November, Bounty0x has received recommendations from a few advisers as well as a few of our trusted community members that it would be prudent to adjust the start and end date of the upcoming pre-sale and main contribution period until after the completion of the bitcoin fork. Moreover, an added benefit of this strategy is that this will enable Bounty0x more time to continue promoting and growing the community in anticipation of the contribution period.

Meanwhile, in the coming weeks we have planned the release of an explainer video, two conferences we will be attending, podcasts, and six new clients.

Anti-scam bot bounty hunter initiative

In our recent blog post we announced the slack anti scam initiative aimed at ending scammers on slack. Together with anti-scam bot we incentivize and reward bounty hunters successfully identifying scammers. This charges more members of the community with ensuring it is safe. To read more about the initiative check out our recent blog post here.

Bounty0x Integration on District0x

In the next week or so, Bounty0x will be enabling DNT holders to stake their DNT and vote on Bounty0x governance proposals, by making use of the vote.district0x.io voting dapp.
