Update: Week Of 17 February 2020

Dear Tezos community, We are in the process of finalizing the Foundation’s second Biannual Update and look forward to sharing it with the community in the coming weeks. In the update we will highlight some of the momentous strides that the Tezos ecosystem has made since August. If you want to catch up on the first Biannual Update, you can do so here.

I would also like to remind you that the next TQuorum will be held in advance of Paris Blockchain Week on March 30th. The gathering will be an incredible opportunity for the Tezos community to gather, discuss progress made, and coordinate and share ideas about the future.

Best regards,
Ryan
