Bluzelle Mid-July Update

The month of July helped to bring our ecosystem one step closer to the mission that the entire Bluzelle team is pursuing with promising partnerships, advanced technical developments and various other platform features. All of these accomplishments and the launch of Q3 paved the way for all of the great updates that will follow over the next few weeks.

1. BLZ Curium Wallet Extension
   BLZ Curium is our wallet extension for Google Chrome, Brave and Firefox. Its designed to provide a Metamask-like experience for BLZ users. This will be used in staking, Call of Data and other use cases as they arise. At the current time we are still waiting for the approval of the Google Chrome Store and are going through the given verification process.

2. NFT Storage
   NFT Storage enables Bluzelle users to store their NFT content and metadata seamlessly and securely in a manner superior to Filecoin. The NFT storage solution is currently being tested for the mainnet with premier NFT platforms like Mintable amongst others.

3. Oracles
   Bluzelle Oracles offers high demand feeds for DeFi applications and has three components that enable it to be a superior oracle service:
   Fast pricing intervals
   High-quality price data

4. Advanced security triggers
   Bluzelle Oracles offers the opportunity to increase the value in the network and we are already in the final test phase for the switch to the mainnet and have targeted the time for the end of July.

5. Call of Data
   Call of Data is our data yielding application where BLZ users are rewarded for uploading data sets to the Bluzelle network. Up to $ 10,000 per week will be awarded to the best performers. In addition, leaderboards, mini-competitions and more are tracked and evaluated.
   The long-term goal is to keep uploading records and reward people for their work. To prevent bad data from spamming the network, the Bluzelle team developed the crowd-sourced voting mechanism. The higher the number of participants, the higher the rewards.
   At the current time we are in the process of having the process procedure and the distribution tested by our community and have planned to carry out the implementation in the mainnet with a target at the end of July.

6. Auto Conversion
   The Bluzelle Auto Conversion is currently in the final test phase by our extremely committed community members, so that we can carry out the implementation and go live for the planned hackathon.

7. Hackathon
   All results collected and submitted for the hackathon are now being checked by Gitcoin and Bluzelle. The Hackathon sponsors included leading pioneers in the crypto and DeFi space including AAVE, Polygon, IoTeX Network, Vite Labs, The Graph, Minds, Mask Network, Badger Finance, Perpetual Protocol, Algorand Foundation and others.
