‍It has already been a month since team t3rn attended DappCon22 in Berlin, so we wanted to make a quick summary of what happened and share some of our thoughts on the latest developments in the Ethereum ecosystem and beyond.

One of these new activities is t3rn Direct, our official AMA (Ask Me Anything). We had our first session on DATE, and we're planning to host these events regularly.

The goal of this presentation is to educate builders and programmers in the Polkadot ecosystem about XBI (Cross-chain Binary Interface), an XCM-based binary interface for smart contracts, developed by t3rn and funded with a grant by the Web3 Foundation.

As we progress towards Mainnet, and the t3rn ecosystem grows, we’d love to share with you all the roles involved in making t3rn, t3rn.

Have you ever wondered who is the team building the protocol, what motivates them and what is it like to work together? We take a deep dive into what makes t3rn tick.

t3rn is a smart contract hosting platform, allowing trustless cross-chain smart contract execution that guarantees success or full reversion of all execution effects in a multichain transaction.

XBI is the standard we are working on that primarily focuses on communicating between different virtual machines.

‍The Web3 Foundation has commissioned t3rn with a second grant to create XBI, an innovative XCM-based standard for smart contract communication.

The t3rn team is excited to announce the addition of three new members to the marketing team. With backgrounds in Defi, NFTs, Growth Hacking and strategy, these individuals bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team. 

The t3rn team is thrilled to share our latest development updates, starting with the t3rn testnet last preparations for the t3rn release as Rococo parachain. Over the last few weeks, we have primarily focused on the following:

After months of development our team launched t3rn’s Rococo Parachain, t0rn. With this new phase, so many key details of t3rn will be validated, which will be reaffirmed in this blog post.

The first quarter of 2022 saw the t3rn team expanding, with crucial hires made across development and operations.

We are thrilled to share our latest development update. Our team has made advances in different aspects of the project, such as implementing our unique Volatile Virtual Machine, providing a handy API fetch_contracts to access on-chain contracts and benchmarking in preparation for the t3rn MVP.

Inspired by real conductors (a material or device that transmits heat, electricity, or sound), the t3rn Conductors Program will empower the most engaged members of the t3rn community to spread knowledge and awareness about the t3rn project.

The t3rn team is excited to share our full Development Roadmap. Openness is a key values of the t3rn project and sharing our Development Road is another step in maintaining full transparency on what the t3rn team are working on at all times.
