149: Grin Blockchain Genesis Third Years🎉
News
As the Grin blockchain approaches it's 3rd year genesis day (January 15th) I'd like to reflect on the chains humble beginnings, technical achievements and the herculean efforts to build the protocol as a fair and private store of value capable of full transaction validation from a cell phone. Thanks for being such a great community through it all 💖
