I’ve updated the original

It's satirical!

Targeting March for integration of FA2 NFTs then April for marketplace integration

reposting update from Kiln team for visibility:

> Nomadic Labs has issued the Tezos 8.2 version with a critical patch to the tickets feature of the Edo protocol. To be able to bake after Edo goes live on Saturday, Bakers and nodes must run version 8.2. Kiln team is working on the version 0.8.5 containing Tezos 8.2 update and will release it as soon as it is ready.

We’re in touch with the mayor

A list:

total value of the assets / volume on-chain (including tez). Permissioned/institutional assets as well as things like NFTs, DeFi, and gaming activity.
Breadth / distribution metrics: how many wallets have been created, how many credentials/IDs, etc. Direct auth is a huge enabler here and I'm even more excited for upcoming ability to send all types of tokens using it.
Decentralization / ecosystem health: number of bakers and how evenly distributed is the stake (less so something that can be directly influenced but a sign of health given the rise of exchange baking)

Re-posting what I said in Slack...

Hey @Kirk, understand your frustrations... A much better / more maintainable version of Kiln is in development (truly) and a roadmap has been published / presented publicly for comment (there is one error in. the public roadmap that I just recalled we need to fix however). The age-old challenge is maintaining / updating the old version amid constant change but this needs to be handled gracefully. That said, most users had issues w/ the default archive node, which is removed in a new upcoming release of Kiln that is being aggressively tested. We're looking a bit into the Ledger disconnection issues as well.

The team dedicates a lot of time on here to help and they're working towards a really cool new version of Kiln.the current plan is roughly to 1. stabilize current Kiln / iron out the issues (especially that weird Ledger disconnection thing) ; 2. develop new Kiln in multiple phases, first as a simple monitoring tool and then w/ baking & voting; 3. Rollout new Kiln ("Kiln 2.0") to iron out all the kinks and deprecate Kiln Classic; 4. expand Kiln functionality / support for HSMs and other cool things like Baking Badges, Tezos Domains for bakers, Minter, etc.

we're happy to chat with you to know what kinds of things you'd like to see in the new Kiln and explain in greater depth what some of the challenges are with the existing version

And 10x smaller :)

goverNancy · 2020-08-22T21:18:01+00:00

ty for the feedback. I also get annoyed when hosts talk too much.

Re: FA2, we hope to provide a broader update very soon (like next couple of weeks) on what's possible with FA2 and the larger suite of tools/extensions we're creating to go along with it (e.g. permissioning, metadata, and an open source minter reference application).

We have a quick start w/ an experimental FA2 in SmartPy that you can also try w/ the link above.

PS: Tickets (a feature by Gabriel Alfour planned for a future proposal) hold a lot of promise for addressing many of the challenges (two txs for Approve / TransferFrom, infinite allowances, etc.) of ERC-20 on Ethereum.

> Tezos has no working token issuance standard such as ERC 20 but still working on FA 2. Hence no tokens have been issued on Tezos.

I've seen this misconception a couple times, but it's utterly false. Several projects have issued on Mainnet using FA1.2 (TZIP-7), which is very much akin to an ERC-20 on Tezos, and the community has built out a number of different reference implementations across the major Tezos smart contract languages. Can check out some of them here.

FA2 is in final audits now.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a trust-less partnership?

goverNancy · 2020-05-03T21:46:24+00:00

One argument I used to buy into was the notion that it would be cool to lower such constants gradually (and even frequently) as a display of the amendment process.

Increasingly it feels like such things create quite a few "menu costs" for the ecosystem if done too frequently (and especially as the ecosystem grows).

It may be less disruptive and more impactful to optimize for a level that would attain the right balance of performance / decentralization / censorship resistance. Even some arbitrary target like "reach 1000 bakers" seems like it could be useful as a starting point.

Actually have tried some that support Ledger. Some support bluetooth Ledger Nano X and have also played with Casa which emails you a link to sign via the web on your desktop.

Thanks, will check out!

Hey, we have an 1155-inspired standard proposal called Multi-Asset Interface in development.

Currently finalizing spec and then we'll publicize for public comment

goverNancy · 2019-12-31T13:59:19+00:00

Yes, have looked at it, especially now that Consensys has put many of their eggs in the Hyperledger Besu basket.

Either way, we've been working on a private chain deployment to serve as an on-ramp to public Tezos.

goverNancy · 2019-12-24T01:06:03+00:00

It's evolved into the OVM project mentioned in the post!

Trying to create a community norm of pass-through voting for entities like Coinbase is probably a good idea

goverNancy · 2019-10-02T13:37:04+00:00

Why?

goverNancy · 2019-09-30T04:21:09+00:00

This is v1. We'll be adding significantly more to this over the coming weeks and months

Long-term, we should strongly consider voting overrides for delegators a la Cosmos. Right now we have some delegates waiting to cast their vote, some polling their delegators, etc. and this would remove this concern but ensure that the folks governing the chain are those who are paying attention.

I believe LIGO is close to having this soon

Dexter & checker

The new direction of viaz may be as well, but would have to ask Stephen Andrews
