Dear OPNers,

We have started this year off on a high note. We have announced on two validators and two forest project operators in our network, with many more following soon. The Regenerative NFT Charity Auction “Re” hosted by OFP is live and we hope you will all join the auction to contribute to the financing of a forest project on OFP! Our online community has also grown by over 1,000 followers this month. We are happy to be on this journey with you, and there is more to come :)

Cheers,

🌳 OFP Team

👨‍💻 Product Update

Mainnet preparations are underway and we are quickly approaching our code freeze.

We are updating the designs of the beta version and implementing some of the great feedback we received during beta testing. The purpose of the beta testing phase is to ensure that forest project operators find our protocol design useful and intuitive.

We are currently testing OFP dashboard, the homepage for forest projects on the platform, and OFP Forester, the field application used for collecting forest data. The OFP team is hard at work integrating this feedback into our final product design, which will launch on Mainnet in Q2 of 2022.

From Luke Schubert, Product Development Lead
