Staking bonus passed

UPDATE ON THRESHOLD DAO
Threshold “Learn & Earn” campaign launched with Binance
The result of much debate this spring on the pros and cons, as well as a passing snapshot vote, Threshold’s Marketing Guild created a campaign with Binance to introduce people to the network. View the explainer video here.
There are currently 1.9 billion T delegated
A Threshold delegate is a DAO member who aligns strongly with the mission of the Threshold Network and pledges to be responsible for voting on Threshold governance proposals with the vote weight that others have assigned to them. This never involves the transferring or custody of assets but rather just the vote weight those assets represent in the Threshold DAO. Vote weight can be re-delegated at any time.
Community member creates guides for delegating
Thanks to Vict0r for creating these step-by-step guides for delegating both staked and liquid T tokens!
Marketing Guild launches a Threshold node
In order to support the network and better understand the platform we are promoting, the Marketing Guild is running a node. Thanks to Benjamin (aka ZeroInFo56 in Discord) for the successful deployment!
