Greetings #Zilliqans,  we’re all set to introduce #staking on the mainnet to bring more value to our users and efficiency to our network. This is where we stand at a glimpse: 
🔵 KuCoin will enable $ZIL staking option for its registered users from 18th June; they will use a ‘soft staking’ and demand-driven approach. We’ve explained what this means in the progress update blog
🔵 Tier-1 Exchange Binance has come on-board as another confirmed staking partner; they will reveal their launch date later this month!
🔵 Got more questions? Don’t worry - Join us for a staking-focused AMA scheduled for 12 June, from 10-11 PM SGT on our Telegran channel.

Zilliqa Token Swap: Recovery plans for unswapped ERC-20 interim $ZIL

If you’re among the few who missed the token swap deadlines of 2019-2020, and are still holding “frozen” ERC-20 interim $ZIL, we’ve got some updates for you, so please read this message. 
https://blog.zilliqa.com/zilliqa-token-swap-recovery-plans-for-unswapped-erc-20-interim-zil-5220afa4a52f

In the months following the token swap deadline of 15 Feb 2020, we’ve received several requests for our assistance from people who missed the swap. We have been carefully looking how we might be able to recover these interim tokens and help convert them into mainnet $ZIL.

We are planning to work on a solution to enable such a swap - one that requires research, inputs from external partners and extensive infrastructure changes from those who no longer support the interim token. It will be a challenging endeavour - but one that we’re happy to take on in order to help the remaining ~1 % to be part of this fast-growing network. 

Given the nature of the project, I am sure you understand that we are unable to provide a firm deadline right now, but please follow us on one or all of our official channels to ensure you do not miss subsequent announcements. We hope to give you a progress update by Q4 2020. 

Thanks for your patience and support. 

Regards,
The #Zilliqa team

Binance Staking Update - 25 June 2020

We would like to provide a quick update on the @Binance Staking service, which is being provisioned now. Given the interest shown by the community, we are fully expecting that staking on Binance will attract an overwhelming take-up which could potentially impact the annual yield. As such, and with the primary goal of keeping it attractive for delegators (given the constraints), the mechanics of staking on Binance is being restructured - more especially, in order to maintain an annual yield of 5-10%. This restructuring could involve a 'lockup' period with a guaranteed tiered yield (between 5-10%) based on the length of the lockup period. The final live date will be announced as soon as the necessary changes on the infrastructure are made.

Thank you for your patience.

Greetings everyone,
✦ We're happy to share that Binance USD (BUSD) - a USD-pegged stablecoin backed by the world's largest crypto exchange Binance will come to the Zilliqa network! With this, we've taken another step towards building a robust, interconnected decentralised network that will enhance the utility of crypto.
✦ This project will come to life thanks to a strategic collaboration between Zilliqa, Binance and our partner Switcheo to build a bridge service connecting Ethereum and the Zilliqa chain. The bridge will allow ERC-20-BUSD (BUSD) to be moved to the Zilliqa chain & circulate as ZRC-2-BUSD (zBUSD).
✦ BUSD is regulated by New York State Financial Services and is issued in collaboration with Paxos Trust Company which acts as USD custodian and issuer of BUSD.
✦ zBUSD token holders will benefit from high speed and low transaction fees on the Zilliqa chain. https://blog.zilliqa.com/binance-backed-busd-to-come-to-zilliqa-blockchain-790608bfbd8
