Weekly Digest from Match Chain

Hello, hello, Match community! 

It’s newsletter time! Welcome to a brief journey through partnerships, events, and insightful moments we had recently. This week's edition includes major highlights from the AMA sessions with the community of thought leaders and innovators, key takeaways from the (r)evolution of Web3 in Paris, the milestones of 5M, 700K, and 500k, and new horizons in Europe and beyond. Let’s go into details so you won’t miss anything.

Last week's major highlight in the blockchain world was the NFT Paris Conference, which gained the status of the largest Web3 event in Europe. Match Chain’s CEO Petrix Barbosa and Christopher Lyons, General Partner at a16z, were leading the panel, dubbed “Revolution or Evolution? Web3's Impact on Finance.” Barbosa highlighted the transformative nature of the transition from Web2 to Web3: the revolutionary changes that empower users and bring data control back to people. He also noted Match Chain's commitment to leading the charge in the Web3 (r)evolution. The full announcement with details can be read here.

 Commitment to the Community: AMA Sessions on X (aka Twitter) Space

Match Chain keeps matching diverse communities of decentralized innovations together. We designed our AMA sessions to foster a vibrant community eager to learn, share, and grow together. Our latest session on Feb. 27 delved into the “Role Of Cloud In Scaling Web3,” featuring Stacey-Ann Pearson, Head of Web, APAC, at AWS Cloud, Wei Jun Lim, CEO of INTOverse, and Petrix Barbosa, CEO of Match Chain, as the discussant. The discussion touched on the most significant topics of the day, from security and data privacy in the Web3 era to the solutions that might support the scalability of Web3 applications

The next AMA session, dubbed “Shaping the Future with zkLink,” will be held on March 7. Mark this date in your calendars to ask questions that you have. The discussion will focus on scalability and security, the future of blockchain tech development, and Web3 infrastructure. You will also have a chance to explore potential partnerships and collaborations within the zkLink.

 Key Highlights From the Match Chain Ecosystem

Let’s look at the numbers: Match Chain is a diverse and thriving decentralized ecosystem! The milestone of surpassing 700,000 Soulbound Tokens (SBTs) is the most notable achievement this week. We are also approaching 5 million wallet addresses, and we have almost doubled daily transactions, getting near the groundbreaking number of 500,000!

The growing numbers represent the trust and engagement of a community of developers, innovators, and early adopters who choose to rely on Match Chain to achieve their goals, recognizing the potential of the Match Chain ecosystem. It is a clear indicator that the network is ready to support a wide range of applications and use cases on a global scale.
