Your EOS Account in Safe Mode
Clever Permissions Management That Guarantees More Protection

The EOS permissions system is one of the most robust features available to developers and users alike. But, creating a custom permission for every dApp breaks the user-experience and in some cases is not even possible. Put your EOS account in safe mode by locking down your staked EOS with a single permission that still allows you to seamlessly enjoy the EOS blockchain.

[#Announcement]
#EOSCostaRica released the beta version of EOS Rate and they are looking for beta testers. EOS Rate is an open-source, decentralized app (dApp) built by a team of developers in Costa Rica. It allows EOS token holders to access a rating system and voting portal for BPs and Proxies, making it easier for the token holders to make an informed decision.

The ratings are securely stored in the EOS blockchain to guarantee the immutability of the ratings. Then, users can access a radial component to visually compare the most relevant qualitative attributes of BPs.

Kotani Pay: A novel Technology enabling Financial Inclusivity for The African continent

We started Kotani Pay with the vision of accelerating the connection of these individuals to the Celo blockchain. Kotani Pay is a middleware technology platform that enables users to easily connect to the blockchain. The service is especially useful to those with feature phones and low-end smartphones as it does not require internet connectivity. Instead, Kotani Pay utilizes Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) to offer access to the Celo blockchain. It creates a bridge between blockchain technology and the traditional payments space aptly created by conventional financial technology services. In a nutshell, KotaniPay creates an on-ramp system to blockchain technology and offers an off-ramp to traditional finance, all this by utilizing a USSD layer.

[#News] Coinbase Open Sources Technical Standard to Streamline Token Listings

The San Francisco-based exchange rolled out a new open-source technical framework for asset listings Wednesday, making it easier for the company to integrate tokens it wants to add by giving developers a blueprint for what their projects need to provide.

Dubbed Rosetta, the release began as a project aimed at helping Coinbase more quickly add assets to its platform, product manager Nemil Dalal told CoinDesk.

“Each blockchain has a node software. They’re all custom and they all have different APIs that you use, and so integration to them can often be very customized, [require] a lot of manual effort,” he said. “So what Coinbase built was some type of middleware that we use to be able to integrate with these blockchains.”

The team is now open sourcing this technical framework for projects hoping to list their tokens on the exchange.
