What is the weekly update?

Weekly update is our effort to show what we, the team, have been working on every week relating to Portal Network. We also try to film short videos to make it hopefully more enjoyable. We believe this is the best way for you, the user, to track our progress. Some of things we write in here might be very redundant, such as bug fixes and UI upgrades, so if you are in hurry, just read the High-level summary.

You may have seen these words, BNS, DMC, ENS, being thrown around and if you’re wondering what the hell they are or more importantly what they mean … the list below is for you.

BNS — Blockchain Name Service

DMC — Domain Market Cap community.

ENS — Ethereum Name Service

Font-end Updates: Settings

From the start, we wanted to create a platform that is compatible across multiple blockchains — Ethereum, ICON, Wanchain. The uncluttered, user setting works on any screen, seamlessly directing you to accessing your Account Info.

The user setting is designed in a way to approach both the experienced user and the beginner. This is an on going process, you may send us a message via telegram or twitter for any improvements you have in mind.

Font-end Updates: Notification Menu

The notification menu is still in the testing phase, we’ve asked different users for feedbacks. Let us know what you think should be added as notification. Current ones are as listed in the image, they are divided into two sectors: Bidding and Selling.

We have thought about adding “Asking”, since it fits well with bidding, but for now it is set this way. And for “Buying”, it is currently auto message per purchase.
