Bounty0x Alpha 2.0 release overview

Here’s a brief rundown of some of the features we have been working on for Alpha 2.0.

The Bounty0x Alpha platform launched back in October, 2 months before our token sale, and now hosts over $2.5m worth of bounties. There are already over 8,000 active Bounty Hunters on the platform and the influx of new users is growing at an accelerated pace.

As you may know, the Alpha 2.0 version of the Bounty0x platform is going live on February 15. Feel free to follow the countdown on our homepage.

Fresh UI

User interface and usability are a factor for every successful product. For the past weeks we have worked hard together with several UI/UX experts to match our Alpha with the the look and feel of our Homepage. This includes incorporating several gamified elements as well as further diving into the “Old West” theme that was so well received by the community.

Social media automation

The review process of several bounties on our platform can be automated through algorithms and machine learning. The social media automation feature we will be launching in Alpha 2.0 is the first step we are taking towards a future where machines are able to review work. In order to push this vision further, our team is focusing a portion of their time every week to explore how machine learning can be integrated efficiently into the Bounty0x platform.

Automated payment distribution

In Alpha 1.0, Bounty Hosts had to send rewards to our escrow smart contract and a Bounty0x admin had to distribute them manually. This process will be fully automated for Alpha 2.0 which will enable us to handle exponentially more volume than we could until now.

Improved Bounty Host dashboard

We work very closely with all our clients to get a better insight into what additional features they would benefit from on our platform. For the Alpha 2.0 launch, we have completely re-built the Bounty Host dashboard to meet these demands.

Bug fixes

Over 500 Bounty Hunters participated in the Bounty0x Bug Bounty to improve the Alpha platform. These are some of the issues that Bounty Hunters pointed out and that we fixed with their help. These fixes will be rolled out for the Alpha 2.0 release.

- General performance updates on load times.

- Fine grain bounty management for hosts.

- URL fixes and Encoding issues for submissions.

- Additional API endpoints to better the operability of the platform.

- Auto-disable and enabling of bounties according to dates.

- Better tracking against submissions.

What’s to come

In the past weeks, we have announced partnerships with several industry leaders like Civic, Lamden, IBC Group and ConcourseQ. Several new partnerships are in the works right now that will help expand further the scope of what Bounty0x can offer. Expect official announcements in the next weeks.

In order to accelerate our development speed and retaining our status as the largest bounties platform in the cryptocurrency space, we have also doubled our core team and brought many new highly respected advisors onboard. With these new team additions and partnerships and launch of the Alpha 2.0 platform right around the corner, we are shifting our resources towards the launch of the Bounty0x Beta and the BNTY staking mechanism for the second quarter of this year.

We will soon also re-open BNTY token bounties. Stay tuned!
