Polymath developers recently held their first of what is planned to be many “town halls” in which they disclosed specific details about the ongoing development of Polymath and related projects. In this update, they outlined several things they’ve been working on and what we can expect to see in the near future:

Pablo Ruiz —VP of Engineering at Polymath — Pablo, concurrently working on the ongoing development of the POLY utility token as well as the ST-20 protocol, shared that ST-20 development is past the stage of growing the team and experimenting with the technology; and that they have moved on to refining the build beyond an initial prototype. They have already been working on making a new iteration of the protocol based on issuer feedback, resulting in a more modular and easier to use platform. We can expect to see this new iteration of the ST-20 protocol in more detail in about two weeks to a month, around the time of the next town hall

Greg Markou — Lead Developer at Matador — Matador is creating a client to allow issuers to easily tokenize securities and launch STOs. They work closely with Polymath to make sure the ST20 protocol is perfectly integrated into their client, allowing companies wanting to have a streamlined experience and get connected with the right people to help guide them through the process, from building a token through STO launch. They are finalizing the production ready version of the client and should be done by the next month, and they will be up to date with the latest iterations of ST20 as soon as they come out.

Nick Yeates — VP of Community— Nick is building an overarching community gameplan intertwining the legal, development, and the supporter communities of Polymath to try and spearhead the growth of the Polymath network as a whole. This plan includes things like education on the technology and industries involved, supporting the developer community with things like hackathons and online bounties, and garnering interest in participation from both developers and businesses alike. Nick’s plan for the community is also available publically, and has been posted in the companys Telegram.

Aidan Hyman — Town Hall Moderator — Aidan closed off the discussion by inviting anyone who wants to participate in the Polymath ecosystem to reach out to them, reiterating that these town halls are also meant to engage with other developers as well as with the community. He also announced that Polymath will be present this weekend (March 23–24) at the ETHUofT ethereum hackathon at University of Toronto. The next town hall is also scheduled to feature a call with Adam Dossa, Senior Solidity Developer for Polymath.

We can expect to hear more soon, as they intend to have town hall updates like these every two weeks to a month (schedule still pending).
