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. We already discussed what is t3rn and who’s t3rn, so now it’s time to talk about our ecosystem and the roles within it. After all, it’s through the ecosystem that we will ensure the protocol reaches its potential to seamlessly integrate and support integrations between any blockchains.

t3rn is just getting started, but we already have an amazing community mobilized around what we want to bring to the Web3 ecosystem. We really enjoyed celebrating with the community, particularly as we broke the 20,000 mark on Twitter. Sharing some love with our brand new t3rners brought great interactions and inputs. For this promotion, we will distribute three t3rn SWAG kits, each containing a t3rn mug, hoodie, beanie and a t-shirt.

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.

We'd love to celebrate the incredible support we've seen on Twitter and our other social channels, especially as we surpass the 20k mark on Twitter. We have barely started, but we already have an amazing community engaged around what we want to bring to the Web3 ecosystem. So nothing better than sharing some love with our brand new t3rn swag!

Learn more about t3rn's main objective and what we are building to achieve such uniqueness. A quick overview on t3rn's core features, smart contract hub, t3rn's bridging security, t3rn interface and XBI the new standard for XCM for fail-safe and trustless cross-chain execution.

Based on Maciej Baj's presentation of XBI at Polkadot Decoded 2022. XBI is a new standard for fail-safe and trustless cross-chain execution. It will allow parachains to communicate seamlessly, granting them to call any functions and facilitate cross-chain messaging with other integrated XBI parachains

The XBI Standard was proposed after an analysis of the current status quo of implementation used in the Polkadot ecosystem, concluding that there is a clear and definitive need for easier interconnection between popular smart contracts. XBI is a high-level interface that when integrated allows for the mentioned functionalities to interact with one another.

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. 

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 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:

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

CoinList Seed was launched in 2020 as a platform for beginning-of-growth entrepreneurs to connect to the global CoinList community. Since the launch of CoinList Seed, the program has welcomed more than 50 blockchain projects into the program with some of the foremost projects in the space counting themselves amongst program alumni.

The t3rn development team has been working hard to prepare our product for new integrations, developer adoption and a public testnet release. 

The development and engagement of our community is becoming increasingly evident with the guidance and support of our Conductors. Ten channels have been initiated, meetings, translations and new efforts are emerging to create deeper links between t3rners.

t3rn is thrilled to announce the first showcase of our technology in action, in partnership with Composable Finance, the cross-chain DeFi platform.

t3rn is thrilled to announce the latest additions to the t3rn team, spanning development, marketing and operations; we have added a Head of Operations, a senior Software Engineer and a Developer Advocate to the team.

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.

Welcome to the first t3rn Development Update, a retrospective review of the development of the t3rn protocol.After completing our Web3 Foundation grant and delivering a proof of concept of our unique Gateway solution t3rn joined the Substrate Builders Program where we established an accountable, three milestone development roadmap.

t3rn has become the latest member of the pioneering Patract Wasm Contract Alliance, an initiative to promote the large-scale popularization of Wasm contract technology. Learn more about what this exciting collaboration will mean for t3rn

t3rn is thrilled to announce that we have concluded our seed sale, led by Polychain Capital, with participation from IOSG Ventures, Digital Finance Group and a selection of key angel investors totalling $1.35million of investment. The funds will allow t3rn to grow the team, specifically in development, marketing and human resources, while ramping up marketing efforts to raise awareness around the t3rn project.

t3rn is very proud be a part of the latest Web 3.0 Bootcamp cohort. The Web 3.0 Bootcamp will offer incubation and project acceleration from the likes of Parity, Web3 Foundation, Wanxiang Labs and New Chainbase. Prior bootcamp alumni include Acala, Phala, Plasm and many more top tier projects. Learn more about what joining the Web 3.0 Bootcamp means for t3rn in this blog post.

We are thrilled to announce our first hires to team t3rn. ‍We have hired in the marketing and development departments, bringing on two Software Engineers and a dedicated Community Growth Manager. Learn more about our new team members in this blog post.
