Hello BlockDAG Community!

We’re thrilled to bring you an exciting update from the BlockDAG dashboard, where our platform’s growth and user engagement have reached new heights! This week, we’re diving into the transaction volume and sharing a sneak peek of the latest improvements to our X1 App. Let’s jump into the numbers and explore what’s been happening on BlockDAG over the past week!

The dashboard summary for this week showcases some impressive activity.

Here’s what stands out:

• Total Transactions: Our community’s engagement is soaring, with over 252,143 total transactions on the BlockDAG network! This week, we observed a notable rise in transaction volume, particularly on Tuesday and Saturday, where daily transaction counts exceeded 8,000. This upward trend reflects a highly engaged community actively interacting with coins, smart contracts, and other blockchain features on BlockDAG.
• Transaction History Chart: Our dynamic transaction chart reveals fluctuations throughout the week, with initial surges on Tuesday, a midweek dip, and renewed activity on Saturday. These peaks likely reflect popular activities like coin swaps, contract interactions, and new user signups. With a steady climb as the week wraps up, we’re gearing up for more activity in the days ahead.
   

This growth signals the BlockDAG community’s increasing trust and participation, moving us closer to our vision of a resilient, community-driven blockchain ecosystem.
 

• BDAG Price: The BDAG coin holds steady at BDAG in $0.022, reflecting a stable ecosystem supported by active trading and ongoing transactions.
• Total Blocks Created: Our network has now created an impressive 193,169 blocks. Each new block showcases the ongoing commitment of users, validators, and developers working to strengthen and expand the BlockDAG ecosystem.
• Last Safe Block: With the last safe block at 193,168, BlockDAG continues to prioritize security and reliability, ensuring that transactions on the network are verified and secure.

To keep our community informed and engaged, we’re excited to announce an upcoming feature: admin-managed news and posts will soon be accessible directly through the X1 App! This new addition will deliver the latest updates, developments, and announcements straight to your fingertips.

Here’s what you can expect:

• Instant Notifications: Stay informed on the go with timely alerts and push notifications, ensuring you never miss an important update.
• Enhanced Community Connection: This direct channel of communication within the app will strengthen our bond with you, enabling faster and more transparent sharing of updates.
• Real-Time Updates: From major development milestones to community events, the admin panel news feed will give you a front-row seat to BlockDAG's exciting progress.
   

By integrating admin panel news, the X1 App becomes an even more powerful tool for community engagement, transparency, and information sharing. This feature is just one step in our ongoing mission to enhance the user experience on BlockDAG.

Recently highlighted in our sprint planning session, BlockDAG’s upcoming Node Visualizer will offer a revolutionary way to interact with our network. This real-time, interactive map will display global node locations, connectivity, and performance metrics in a 3D globe interface. Users will soon be able to explore node distribution, monitor transactions per second (TPS), and view block data, underscoring BlockDAG’s commitment to transparency and decentralization.
Future updates will add even deeper insights and interactivity, making the Node Visualizer a comprehensive, user-friendly tool for understanding BlockDAG’s network structure and performance.

Platform Enhancements: ERC-20 and ERC-721 Contract Screens
As part of our dedication to a seamless and user-friendly experience, BlockDAG is rolling out significant improvements to our ERC-20 and ERC-721 contract screens:
ERC-20 Contracts: Updates include a refined UI, improved transaction visibility, and smoother navigation, making it easier to track token activities. Popular contracts have received proactive bug fixes, ensuring reliability during peak usage.
ERC-721 (NFT) Screen: Enhancements here include faster loading, rich media metadata, and comprehensive event logs, creating a smoother, more immersive NFT exploration experience.

Looking forward, we’re intensifying QA testing, incorporating community feedback, and developing advanced data visualization tools to deliver a more responsive, engaging platform.

We’re proud to announce that BlockDAG’s X1 App has surpassed 200,000 active users! This milestone is a testament to our community’s dedication and enthusiasm. Celebrating this achievement, we’re advancing with updates to enhance the X1 App experience. The latest sprint has completed the development of the Nodes Module, which is now in testing, along with optimizations for contract interactions and a refined design for faster performance and seamless navigation.

BlockDAG remains dedicated to creating a robust, user-friendly, and transparent platform. As we move forward, our focus will be on expanding node insights, optimizing contract functionalities, and incorporating community-driven features.
