The Kusama network has been updated to version 0.6.6, and the number of validators is expected to exceed 100

On November 3, Polkadot founder Gavin Wood reminded validators in Riot that the Kusama network has been updated to version 0.6.6. Please make sure to upgrade to v0.6.6.

Avocado's founder's new project EIDOS experienced a sharp rise and fall after its launch

From the official website of ENU, EIDOS is still linked to the EOS network, which is a token that is converted to the CPU and bandwidth resources of EOS. It is speculated that because there are currently a large number of EOS mortgages on EOS REX, resulting in a large number of CPU and bandwidth resources being idle, EIDOS hopes that these idle resources can be tokenized and circulated in some way to alleviate resource waste.

Launched in February 2018, ENU is widely known for its UBI (Universal Basic Income) concept. ENU copied the code of EOS and endowed it with a unique airdrop method. Users only need to send 0 Ethereum to an address to receive ENU’s airdrop. This almost cost-free acquisition method has attracted a large number of users, causing the price of ENU to skyrocket, once approaching RMB 1. On November 2, MXC listed EIDOS, which surged 50% in a short period of time, but fell again by 60% the next day.

DeFi Pulse tweeted on October 31 that Augur creators can use arbitrary data to liquidate the market, reminding users to choose markets carefully for prediction.

It is reported that some markets on Augur have predicted the price of Bitcoin recently, but the prediction results are not correct. For example, one of the questions is: Will the price of Bitcoin break through $5,500 on October 18? If you look at the data of major trading platforms, the answer is obviously yes, but the answer given by some markets on Augur is indeed "no". That is to say, someone is taking advantage of some bugs in the Augur market to cheat and profit. At present, Augur has not done anything to solve this problem.
