Then we dive into the newest from Developer Experience, and share our latest Milestone BERYLLIUM. We continue with the NNS where Lara presents our proposed design for periodic follower confirmation. This months’ demos include canister snapshots, and the community demo of a Bitcoin-centered omnichain bridge built on ICP.

I'm so hopeful for ICP. Well done to Dfinity for developing a great/best crypto 🎉🎉🎉

Many People bought ICP for the express purpose of staking in NNS, choosing vote preferences and then letting it ride, so to speak. Changing the rules for rewards smacks of an EU mentality of manipulation.
