OmniFlix Network - Community Update #42

Flix Fam, continuing our weekly updates to our stakeholders, we are now ready with Community Update #42. Without further ado, let’s jump right in to know more about the incentivized campaign on FlixNet-4, updates from last week and all that’s being worked on this week.

0] An update on FlixNet-4

  • As mentioned via the official Twitter account, due to immense load on the apps and the testnet, we’ve needed to upgrade the infra and optimize the architecture by a bit.

  • On 24th October, the team requested community members to stop participation in the testnet campaign until further notice.

  • We are happy to inform you that the updates and upgrades are now completed and the apps are functional, better than ever.

  • Regardless, the campaign will start at 9am UTC on 31st October, Monday. The campaign will end on 4th November at 17:00 UTC, compensating for the days that the community members were asked to wait until a better experience was deployed.

  • There are faucet updates (to claim FLIX tokens on FlixNet-4) that are pending and will be completed by 29th October or sooner but if you already have FLIX, you can try the apps to see if they work well for you.

Important Points to Note 👇

If you already completed the campaign before 9am UTC on 31st October, you do NOT need to do anything after the campaign resumes.

If you wish to complete activities before 9am UTC on 31st October, you can do that and your participation will still be considered valid.

  • Leaderboard for campaign participants is also now live for folks to refer. You can connect your Keplr wallet on OmniFlix Studio (on FlixNet-4) and go to Assets > Campaigns and then click on the Leaderboard tab to the top right corner.

1] Engineering

  • Last week’s efforts were primarily on the launch of the testnet campaign on FlixNet-4 and getting the logistics to promote and scale in place.

  • The FlixNet-4 testnet is still functioning and live along with the apps, but the response has been rather slow. This is primarily due to the infrastructure chosen for testnet and is being updated as we write this article. More news on the same will be released via Twitter, Telegram & Discord.

  • The team’s efforts have been focused on StreamSwap and exploring the tooling around CosmWasm further.

  • The application engineering team worked on deployment of a partner app and the internal demos within the movie distribution house went well. More efforts on that this week to maximize adoption.

  • The engineering team also worked on updating the data layer with USD prices with a week’s worth work pending for internal review. Next week, we aim to have further developments around the use of USD values within the market.


2] Design & Media Updates

2A) Product Design

  • The past week’s focus was primarily around brainstorming and re-design of OmniFlix TV v2. Internal reviews are on-going and additional details will be shared with the community as and when they are ready.

  • Other areas of focus for the product design team was to collate all feedback received during the FlixNet-4 campaign and consolidate them for review - engineering-wise or UX/design-wise.

2B) Media

  • Most of the efforts were focused on publishing independent videos on the Cosmoverse HQ YouTube channel.

  • Creatives for partner campaigns and upcoming NFT drops have also been an area of focus for the media development team. Will mostly continue this week as well.

  • Along with the above, creatives for planned campaigns continue.
