The Request Network Foundation promotes the adoption of blockchain by providing technology which allows everyone to develop their own financial solutions based on the Request Network. The foundation establishes a standard for blockchain transactions, shaping the future of payments (i.e. invoices, loans, payments, salary, donations) and their compliance for accounting, tax and audit integration.

While this last two week’s summary is light on publicly available content, we will look back at:

Kicking off the Amsterdam office

AMA: Last call for questions

A reminder: Request Network Protocol v2

Welcoming our new HR manager

Move-ember: Amsterdam 🎉

In the last two weeks, we have officially entered our new office space at TQ, a curated tech hub in the heart of Amsterdam founded by TNW. Having everything available at the office to grow exponentially as an organisation, TQ is the perfect location to attract talent from all over Europe. The office in Amsterdam will function as our main location in Europe, where we are able to easily collaborate with our international workforce.

AMA — Final call for questions.

Thank you for all the questions already asked in the AMA thread on Reddit. If you have any last pressing questions, make sure to ask them today as the thread is officially closing at the end of the day. A dedicated blog post will be published in the upcoming weeks with responses to the questions.

A reminder: Protocol Version 2

In the last bi-weekly of October 30th, we introduced a major update to the current Request Network Protocol: Version 2. Because this update brings big changes to the network, we encourage you to read through the dedicated blog post by the protocol team to understand all the ins and outs of protocol v2.

All questions about v2 that are raised in the AMA thread will have their own section in the response post.
