Feature Update: A Smarter Way to Matchmake
Report – June 27th
This week, the development team implemented Ethereum-based smart contracts into Matchpool’s matchmaking ecosystem. By applying Ethereum smart contracts into the matchmaking process, user connectivity and peer engagement will be able to reach new heights via the Matchpool platform. This is because smart contract-based matchmaking dissuades spam and encourages genuine connections! Of the features implemented to the platform this spring, smart contract-based matching is the most secure and offers users a safer, more reliable matchmaking experience through the platform.
What’s New This Week?
FEATURE ADDITIONS
Implementation of blockchain-based matchmaking
Blockchain-based matchmaking enables an entirely new level of security to cover the matchmaking process. The Ethereum blockchain is applied to the matchmaking process through the integration of smart contracts, which facilitates the locking of user’s the Guppy tokens when they request matches. This new “locking” feature discourages spammy in match requests and leads to the formation of more genuine connections. This locking feature also encourages pool admin engagement, as each match must now be approved (or declined), by the pool admin in order to unlock the funds. As such, the implementation of Ethereum smart contracts to the matchmaking process allows for more legitimate connections and genuine matchmaking to take place.
Conclusion
Matchpool’s original vision was. to promote and facilitate genuine matchmakinges and the establish positive connections among the platform’s users. With the addition of Ethereum smart contracts, the matchmaking process assumes all of that, and more. By locking requesters’ funds, requesting users are dissuaded from making spammy requests and are encouraged to only make genuine connections. We’re excited to have our community engage with the smart contract matching system and provideto give us with feedback onabout their individual experiences with this new feature.each user’s. experience here.
Yours,
The Matchpool team.
