#Harmony co-founders @stse & @SahilDewan share the latest updates in regard to #OpenStaking progress:
— Harmony (@harmonyprotocol) February 16, 2020
🧑💼Calculating the Annual Reward Rates per Validator
🤯SDK Update to make it easier for exchanges to integrate with Mainnet $ONE
🧪Last-mile Network Testing by Pangaea Community
Building public blockchain is like building a rocket 🚀 . There are tons of moving parts that need to be pieced together seemlessly and coordinated coherently. Changing any single part will affect the whole system and potentially fail it as a whole.

#MyOneWeek started with a successful @harmonyprotocol mainnet v1.2.3 upgrade, and the official release of static build binary and docker image for mainnet node. https://t.co/t4anAMXLec

So this week was a lot of pure blockchain coding. last week I more deeply understood Practical Byzantine Fault algos, needed that for double signing in our setting. A long detour into calculating APR for validators and came back to having slashing working on beaconchain. https://t.co/zzhOppldeC pic.twitter.com/SuBd5C7Fq5
