There has been no shortage of major updates this month bringing the decentralized crypto community together. The jubilance over the success of The London Hardfork was immediately met by heavy debate in Washington over the amendments to the Infrastructure Bill. 

Blockdaemon and the community continue to support free flow of information and value in line with innovation that brings more financial benefit to the largest possible group of people.

Read on to find out more about the latest updates with Ethereum, recent protocols we’ve added support for inluding Provenance, and the recent winners of the Kusama parachain.
