What is Mina?

Mina is the world’s lightest blockchain, powered by participants. Rather than apply brute computing force, Mina uses advanced cryptography and recursive zk-SNARKs to design an entire blockchain that is and always will be about 22kb, the size of a couple of tweets, ushering in a new era of blockchain accessibility. With its unique privacy features and ability to connect to any website, Mina is building a private gateway between the real world and crypto—and the secure, democratic future we all deserve. Mina is stewarded by the Mina Foundation, a non-profit organization.

A

um Welcome and thanks everyone for joining nina's, first spotlight event: um I'm christine I lead community at o1 labs and I'm an advisor to the meena foundation.

A

um Today, I'm honored to be able to present to you a spotlight on nina's community and share some updates. Here you see a snapshot mina, seeing release from growth. More and more people continue to participate.

A

um In the last two months, 80 000 new members joined the community across our social channels and we've grown to more than 200 000 members who are all following nina's progress from around the world, so memories are from over 100 countries and they're hanging out in more than 20 community-led channels, where they're having conversations in their own languages at the core, we have more than 1 000 genesis, founding members and newly onboarded prism, contributing members.

A

If you're a gfm or a new pcm, please say hi and drop.

A

The comments in the chat users are also participating on mina's network, so minas mainet launched about three months ago and the community has been successfully keeping the network up ever since so here you see that um we have 96 staking participation which is very exciting and really high and 390 members or validators have been producing over 33 000 blocks together and users are also leveraging minor, zero knowledge, proof technology and are running snark workers, so over 280 000 snarks are included in a blockchain.

A

Up to now there are 22 000 accounts on the ledger and more than 5 000 of them are being delegated unchained to the community.

A

We're very happy to see that community members are receiving delegations and are building successful businesses on top of mina. So big thanks to all of you who are having a critical role in powering minas network.

A

Another update that I'm very excited to share today is that we just announced the onboarding of new prism contributing members, so mina is powered by participants and the community is large, there's many different skills and talents, and they collaborated in recent years to become one of the most robust communities in crypto.

A

The meena foundation is acknowledging the members who build along with the core team and is very excited to announce that new members have been onboarded into the prison grants program as of today. So here you see some numbers genesis founding members and the newly onboarded prison contributing members are devoted to the project. They made significant contributions.

A

In the last years, members have been supporting the project by testing the protocol, creating content, organizing events, helping out other members building tooling and making many other contributions that help the project to get where it is today and with this program, mina's growing its currency base to more than 1 000 grantees and distributing in total an additional 2.3 million tokens to the new prison members, a big congratulations to the new prism contributing members and, together with the genesis founding members, they will continue to be mina's pillars.

A

I'd also like to take this opportunity to give a shout out to members who've made a positive impact and started new initiatives for minas community in the last months. So here you see some of the new exciting initiatives I'll quickly walk you through them at the top left. You see a link to a new telegram group that member moody started if you're interested in quizzes voice, chats and other activities.

A

You can follow this link and join the fun with another 4 000 members. I joined this group too, and it's great openbidlab started amina magazine. It's a community-led hub or website for news breakthroughs. Analysis, community initiatives and all other good stuff, that's related to mena if you prefer twitter, there's also an informational, twitter, feed called meena street and it's started by member smgt, and you also see that community members created very helpful guides and videos about mina a big thanks to natalia antropo cosmis. I hope I'm pronouncing his name correctly and aki.

A

If you are more technical member and are running a node amina, you might be interested in the node operators dashboard that alton built we've seen a lot of positive feedback from members about it. There's also a list with resources and tools for the mina ecosystem called awesome, nina tools built by carbonara, where the community can have links to their creations and last but not least, we also want to give a big shout out to vince from towerstake for building many handy tools for the community.

A

One of the things that you build is a tool that can help you to easily calculate what your estimated rewards are if you're staking or delegating mina later on during one of the next sessions. Vince will also present his tools to you if you'd like to support these members, I'd recommend you to go to the new minas subreddit that we just created called meenadev.

A

You can see the link here at the top right and please share your good experience with these tools and resources by leaving a comment or uploading threads, so these are actually only some of the things that members have created. There are actually many more members who also build and did awesome things and we're very grateful to everyone who's taking on such an important role in mina's ecosystem.

A

If you also started a new initiative and created something fun, please don't forget to share it with the community on our channels like telegram, discord, twitter or reddit, and even if it's just a meme or a tweet, we're always happy to hear about it. So yeah you can join mina's official channels by following the links that are shown here. Many members in minas community are the most friendliest helpful and welcoming individuals that I've ever met.

A

So please join our mainnet only launched a few months ago and we're just at the beginning of mina's journey, so we still need a lot of builders, creators, organizers leaders, mentors and many others to further grow and lead venus community there's a place for everyone who wants to be part of it so yeah. I hope to see everyone over at the discussion channels at the right.
