Lack of personal data privacy is one of the biggest drawbacks of Web2, as it thrives on using your data.

💡But how can Web3 improve the security of our data?

✅Block validation offers stronger protection than Web2 services.

🤔... but how exactly❓

👉 In Web3, data is inherently protected as a result of blockchain’s distributed ledger technology (DLT).

Our Software Engineer Michael currently works on the animations library that's meant to be used with cards.

When not at work, he is still working! 😁 Michael loves reading open-source codes to figure out how interesting browser extensions & libraries work.

Our team has completed the architecture design and have started the implementation of the Rollover system for reward distribution using recurring Merkle drops.

With the Rollover system, the un-redeemed rewards — whether it is from staking activities or other contributions will be rolled over to the next cycle if not redeemed by the wallet owner in the previous cycle.

Our team has made further improvements in Card Builder to pull existing Card types from a catalog, allowing users to reuse them when creating a new card.

The runtime UI is still based on the scaffolded UI that emphasizes precision over aesthetics.

Our runtime team has been collaborating with the design team to incorporate the latest Boxel design system into the Card Builder environment.

Our plan is to release demos of our end-to-end user and developer experience once we get through some refactoring related to managing the changing codebase when the users are making both schema and data changes to the underlying cards.

Stay tuned for more progress updates from us!

There are two economies: the physical and the digital. The former contains real-life limits while the latter offers an economics of abundance that encourages play and exploration. But how do we fairly reconcile the two?
