Business Development:

Several progress we have made this week for discussions and meetings with key industry players to explore innovative solutions and collaboration opportunities.

• A productive meeting with Limitless Culture Group, focusing on the protection and provenance of their valuable video content. By leveraging our advanced technologies, we aim to ensure the authenticity and traceability of their videos, enhancing their intellectual property rights.

• Discussion with Opulous, a music copyright-backed MFT ecosystem platform. Together, we explored solutions for copyrights, revenue distribution, and revenue sharing in the music industry. This collaboration holds great potential to revolutionize the way artists are rewarded for their creative work.

• Discuss a funding opportunity for "UK-Taiwan collaborative research and development" with our partner in the UK. This initiative opens doors for cross-border collaboration and innovation, further advancing our mission.

Marketing:

• Thrilled to report that our first-ever Monthly Dev Call was a resounding success! We had an impressive turnout, with a peak of 93 participants joining us live. It was an engaging session filled with thought-provoking discussions, valuable insights, and the opportunity to address the burning questions and concerns of our community. We are grateful for the active participation and enthusiastic response from all those who attended. Your valuable feedback and input are instrumental in shaping the future of Numbers Protocol.

NUM & DAO:

• We have released the agenda for the 23Q2 DAO meeting. One of the key topics of the NUM ecosystem: whether Numbers should explore opening up the validator set and implementing delegated Proof of Stake (PoS). This decision will have a significant impact on the future of the protocol.

• We are calling for a community review on the aforementioned topic. Your feedback is vital in shaping the direction of Numbers. The review period will be from June 5 to June 20, 2023. We encourage all community members to participate and provide their insights during this important review.
