Our Quiz III campaign held in mid-June was a great success — our quiz campaigns are definitely a community favorite! We are thrilled that the number of participants for this campaign has increased tenfold. We are proud to have such an awesome community and we will continue hosting more of these campaigns in the near future. Here are the correct answers to Quiz III:
Q: Which research papers will IoTeX release in June 2018?
A: “Faster Dual-key Stealth Address for Blockchain-based IoT Systems” and “Roll-DPoS Consensus Mechanism” yellow paper
Reference: IoTeX Published DKSAP-IoT in ICBC 2018, Reduces Computational Overhead by 50% Compared to DKSAP
Q: What did Dr. Xinxin Fan mention at 2:56 in IoTalks #1?
A: To achieve full native privacy, IoTeX uses three components: Transaction Content, Sender and Receiver
