Overview

Overall July was another successful month for Telos with continued additions of new projects and over 30k new user accounts, again surpassing most larger cap projects for traction.

There was a significant dip from last month but this was to be expected with no apps migrating their user base as we had in June. As we procure new users our focus turns towards initiatives that help to cross pollinate users between the various apps on Telos.

July Announcements / Progress

In July we again had some very interesting announcements.

1. Creation of a Lightweight web wallet which includes testnet and mainnet support, free account creation as well as greymass fuel integration. Essentially a easy wallet that requires no downloads and costs nothing for users to interact with telos dapps.

2. Contract updates to support TEDP 2.0 such as BP number reduction, etc.
