Summary
Hey everybody, welcome to the first Tellor update. So, the purpose of this video is going to be to get you up to speed with the goings-on of the Tellor ecosystem over the past week and then we’re moving the community call to a Town Hall style format over in our discord channel. The reason here being that we felt that the password protected zoom link was adding another barrier for engaging with the community and discord is more built for that kind of engagement. I hope that explains all the change up that’s been happening. Let’s go ahead and dive in.
Last Friday we passed the vote to launch our very first Tellor treasury, so now you can go to our fron-end website and participate. Our community manager put together a walk-through video as well, so I’ll put both of those links in the description below. Just a couple caveats, you will want to consider the gas fees of going in and out of the treasury contract as well as voting on any proposals or disputes that you will need to vote on to earn the full inflationary rewards. Just keep that in mind.
In development news, we’ve been focusing on our polygon implementation of Tellor, as we have a few protocols that are looking to use us once we’re fully up and running over there. A couple weeks ago we had already successfully launched the oracle contract on Polygon, now we’re just waiting on a couple key components, namely the governance contract which should be ready in a couple weeks and then the reporting software, which we just released this week. You’ll see that in the reporter bi-weekly call that we hold and Owen even put together a walk-through video on how to set one up. Also, on that reporter call we got an update on the Algorand development, which, if you didn’t know, we got a grant from them to build an oracle for their network. Just because it’s not EVM compatible, means we have to focus a little bit more dev resources on that front, but the idea is to make it look similar to the Tellor Flex implementation that we’re using for Polygon and any other EVM chain. Highly recommend you check that out.
And then last but certainly not least, I want to give a shout-out to community member 3abadi1000. They’re tackling a bounty for us, which is flushing out the voting website that we put together for the Tellor treasuries. We commend you, thank you for contributing to the community. This is the kind of activity we like to see. If you’re a developer or you know any developers that want to contribute to the crypto oracle infrastructure ecosystem, we have plenty of bounties we’re ready to reward people with and it also helps push for the agenda of making this most decentralized and open-source oracle community ever.
That wraps up this week. Again, this is the first Tellor update video, so if you have any feedback for what you’d like to see moving forward, feel free to leave a comment below, join our discord, join the town hall, we want to make sure this kind of content serves as much utility as possible. Thanks for watching and I’ll see you next week.
