April has been a busy month for FIO Protocol, filled with events, technical advancements, and community engagement. Catch up fast and easy with our April recap video from FIO’s very own Ren.

Here’s a glimpse into our active participation in the blockchain sphere and ongoing developments:

Engaging with the Global Blockchain Community

We were recently in New York City at NFT.NYC, where Blockchain Wayne highlighted the integration of NFTs in businesses beyond the crypto sphere, showcasing the broad potential of blockchain technology. Marie Grig and Blockchain Wayne also represented FIO at TOKEN2049 in Dubai, connecting with leading voices in the crypto world. These events were crucial for networking with industry leaders and sharing insights about FIO Protocol’s innovations.

Innovations and Updates

We rolled out the FIO App Release v1.22, enhancing the protocol to make crypto interactions smoother for everyone. This update underscores our commitment to continuous improvement and ease of use in the crypto space.

Educational Insights on Cryptocurrency

In an effort to demystify cryptocurrency further, Blockchain Wayne broke down the concept of Bitcoin halving in the latest episode of our podcast, ‘From No Crypto To Know Crypto’. This episode is essential for anyone looking to understand the dynamics of cryptocurrency supply.

FIO’s Fantastic Four: Celebrating with Prizes Galore!

Our 4th anniversary was a hit! We celebrated FIO’s journey with a massive 15,000 $FIO giveaway, engaging our community and rewarding their support with exciting prizes.

Governance and Community Participation

The FIO Board Elections were another highlight this April, with the community coming together to vote for the new directors, ensuring that our path forward is guided by voices that resonate with our users.

Empowering Users with FIO Requests and Staking Options

We’ve also highlighted some FIO Features this month with FIO Requests — a secure and simplified way to request crypto payments, similar to Venmo but for cryptocurrency. Additionally, we informed users how to stake FIO tokens via the FIO Dashboard and through various ecosystem partners like Edge Wallet, MetaMask, and Binance, benefitting from competitive staking rewards.

April has truly been a testament to FIO Protocol’s growth and our steadfast commitment to enriching the blockchain user experience. For a detailed dive into each of these facets, visit our blog.

About FIO:

FIO, the Foundation for Interwallet Operability, is a decentralized consortium that supports the ongoing development, integration, and promotion of the FIO Protocol. The protocol, built on the FIO Chain, a dPoS blockchain, serves as an open-source, decentralized usability layer solution that works across all blockchains. FIO Protocol uses human-readable Handles to replace the complexity, risk, and inconvenience associated with blockchain-based transactions. Fueling the ecosystem utilization is the FIO Token ($FIO), which powers transactions and incentivizes network participants.

With 💜,

The FIO Team
