Development & Marketing Update for September 2019

Electra Protocol
3 min readSep 27, 2019

Switching from Engineering calls to written reports.

We have noticed some people have had difficulties finding older updates on the progress of the project. They had to listen to earlier recorded engineering calls which was not a very efficient method to find information. Monthly written updates will have a greater reach as not everyone is able to listen to the Engineering calls. Because it was a good way to let people hear our voices, we are going to switch to AMA sessions where the community can ask their questions on Twitter by using a hashtag.

Forms to attract new people into the team

We have received quite a few responses from people willing to help the team. We are currently trying to put all respondents in the most effective positions for their knowledge and expertise.

Renewed welcome message Telegram

Our Telegram welcome message has been improved to provide more useful information to new Electra investors.

Redesigning the homepage from the Electra website

The homepage on the Electra website doesn’t contain enough useful information for new people considering investing in Electra. This will be improved with a new design that better suits our target audience.

Electra & Redfox Cooperation Meetings

Earlier this year, we joined forces with RedFox which will enable both parties to be able to share knowledge and expertise. This will lead to new services, products, and strategic planning which in turn will help the project generate the necessary income for future development. Based on our agreement, we have held our first official meeting with Redfox. Busy schedules, holiday season, and the accommodating of different time zones for everyone to join the meeting prevented this from happening earlier. The outcome of this meeting was fruitful and created a solid base for the next more in-depth meeting.

Trezor wallet

With Trezor integration, our community will be able to also secure their coins within Trezor wallets. Electra has been integrated into testing firmware and in order to test it, we must finish the blockbook part.
