ETHOnline + Vega = <3
We're sponsoring ETHGlobal's month long hackathon and summit ETHOnline. This is our first hackathon and it's super exciting to see developers use Vega to create and build 🚀 I wrote this blog summarising our involvement but I highly recommend watching the video below; Barney presenting Vega and our involvement in the hackathon. For those wishing a deeper understanding and to see how to get set up watch this workshop.

Wendy grows up
Wendy, the good little fairness widget is a module added to blockchains that promotes ‘relative fairness’ and hence security at consensus layer. This was initially published by Vega Blockchain researcher Dr. Klaus Kursawe earlier this year in this paper (and in short form in this blog). However, Wendy is growing up and we’re set for a release that allows for easier testing, implementation and more flexibility. Make sure to keep your eyes out in our forum for the revised fairness fairy where in the coming weeks we'll be hosting an AMA with Dr Klaus.
