Report — October 25th

This week, the team focused on developing a feature aimed at solving a very crucial communication problem often observed in interactions between administrators and other members on many popular social media platforms. This feature, which we’ve called “Admin-to-member” direct messaging, allows pool members to open a direct communication channel with the pool administrator. The team also fixed several minor bugs in an effort toto improve general platform performance which allows for a smoother, more refined user experience. We’re really excited to have the community members try out this feature and start chatting directly with your favorite pool admins!

What’s New This Week?

  1. Pool Admin-to-members direct messaging

Getting ahold of the administrator of any social media group can be onerous. Not only are admins busy managing many users, but often times, you’re not the only one trying to contact them. This communication issue has inspired us to implement a new direct messaging feature within our platform, allowing pool members to pay a small amount of Guppy tokens to open a direct chat with their pool’s administrator.

Note: Users who wish to use this feature must have a valid Ethereum address associated with their account and have enough Guppies to meet the fee requirement (set by the administrator)

Next week, we’ll be featuring Admin-to-member direct messaging in our Weekly Feature Highlight series. Stay tuned!

BUG FIXES

The team worked to mitigate several small-scale bugs on the platform, leading to general improvement and an overall better user experience.

Upcoming Features

We have exciting news! The team is actively working to create a gorgeous and elegant interface for the Matchpool web platform. The team is currently trying out different designs to determine which look best suits our vision. We’ll be actively updating the community on our design progress via our Telegram channel.

Conclusion

Chatting with the admins of your favorite pools just became a whole lot easier! With the implementation of the Admin-to-Member direct messaging feature, our community of users can easily request, report or praise the owners of their beloved pools! And, if you have feedback about our new message pinning system, please let us know on our official Telegram chat!

Thanks for reading and Match on!

Yours,

The Matchpool Team.
