Hiya everyone! Here’s your week at Parachute (6 Sep - 12 Sep'19):
Parachute got together with twelve ParJar partners to host the biggest Treasure Hunt in the Parachuteverse yet. If you have seen Games Master Jason’s track record when it comes to puzzles, then you know it’s going to be uber tough to crack. The prize pool for this event? USD 2k in crypto. Holy Canoli! Get in folks. Wrack your brains and win a sh!tton of crypto. Check out Cap’s article to see what we have in store for September. Thanks for the shoutout Cap! The Parachute US Open Racquet Bracket Challenge closed this week. Congratulations to Veronique for topping the charts and taking home a cool 100k PAR. In trivias, we had Ian's art quiz in TTR with a 25k PAR pot and Victor’s general quiz with another 25k PAR pool. The latest TTR competition is a wacky one – find “PAR” in your surroundings and win some of it. Haha. We welcomed 3 new projects to the Parachute fam – Arena Match, BAGS and Yazom. And with that, we have 4 awesome projects in the Staking pilot program. Woot woot! Just one more to go before Cap reveals the engagement activities he’s planned for our pilot program partners. <insert “desire to know more intensifies” gif>

This week, the team opened up early access registration. Have you been wondering why OST has a mainnet when it is an ERC20 token? This is because OST supports layer-2 tokens over the Ethereum chain. These layer-2 tokens are backed by OST tokens staked on the Ethereum mainnet. Quick recap of Part 2 of the SelfKey data threat series can be found here. August Update Summary was published as well.
