Monthly report: a recap of activities in January 2023
Dear Pundians,
January was a great month for us. We finalized our roadmap in 2023 and launched tools to make Pundi X Chain more decentralized. It’s the month that we set up our goals and lay the foundation for 2023. Let’s talk about the most important updates, and first off: Product development.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

The DAO voting mechanism is finally launched on Pundi X Chain, a payment-focused blockchain built upon the Function X network, to build a more decentralized environment. With this launch, step by step, the community will be able to jointly grow the Pundi X Chain ecosystem.

The team has opened the Pundi X Chain validator slots for the public to host this month! To become a validator, a minimum self-delegation of 100 $PUNDIX is required. As of today, we have received 43 applicants. A proposal for increasing the current validator nodes from 20 to 50 is now available for community voting: https://proposal.pundix.com/chain/pundix/proposals
Since the public validator nodes will be open gradually in order to make sure the network is secure, the voting to decide which public validator applicants is also on: https://forum.starscan.io/t/decide-the-order-public-validator-goes-live-on-pundi-x-chain/5023
