Dear all contributors! 
Would like to share the recent effort we kick-started, to grow & expand the SIP process
(SIP stands for Stacks Improvement Proposal). We have been having weekly SIP calls for the past 10 weeks now, every Friday 11AM EST
-
This week we had a 3 mining improvement proposals by Matty & some general update.
- SIP-016 by Friedger & Dan have met activation criteria thanks for everyone who chipped in and help search for deployed contracts, particularly big shout out to @dartman for the search.
-3 mining proposals were explained in great detail. The most lower risk and medium impact level is “Dust mining”. You can reach more about it on Github/meeting link below. -
