- Began to study the libp2p network library and analyzed the parts which are suitable for use on Spectrum.
- Summarized the research results of EVM in stages, and studied key contents again.
- Held face-to-face communications with the MeshBox Tech team and participated in MeshBox’s Token Profitablity Plan, laying the foundation for integration with future Spectrum ecosystem projects.
Ozone’s development has been faster than usual, and some of its new functions were implemented this week. Now Ozone supports ERC20 token queries on the Spectrum public chain, which means that people can query not only SMT, but other ERC20 tokens deployed on the Spectrum public chain, which greatly increases the usefulness of Ozone.
The specific details are as follows:
- Realized Ozone application lock function, enhancing application security further.
- Ensured that the layout of common functions is practical and convenient for users to access frequently.
