Emoji Contest & Secureum CARE

Community Newsletter #8: March 2022

Having just announced several key integrations and collaborations in February, the Increment engineers and community continued that momentum into March!

The month began with an exciting Discord emoji/stickers contest, where we saw over 50 submissions of uniquely made emojis and stickers for our Discord server! We were super impressed by all the creativity and quality of work that our community members put into this contest and we are looking forward to announcing the winners on April 8th as well as adding many of the top voted emojis to our server. 🎉

While the contest was going on, our engineers prepared our code and documentation for the Secureum CARE program starting on March 31st. CARE stands for "Comprehensive Audit Readiness Evaluation." CARE is not a replacement for a security audit, but is intended to happen before an audit so that protocol code becomes ready for future audit(s) to get a better security outcome from the process.

The review is performed by a group of “CAREtakers” - top performing members of the Secureum community and aspiring smart contract security experts, as well as a Secureum representative (who has a proven track-record of smart contract security expertise/experience).

Once we receive the final report by April 14th and fix the findings, we will release our early access beta campaign for early testing. If you have not signed up for it, please register here.

Development Update

Since the start of the Secureum CARE program, our smart contract engineers have been facilitating Q&As with the reviewers and writing additional tests for the system. There was also more time for additional collaboration between our smart contract engineers and Web3 frontend engineers - to further ensure that our interface, subgraph, and contracts are well connected.
