Keep Weekly Roundup — March 23rd, 2018

3 min readMar 23, 2018

It has been another great week here at Keep. We’ve been working finalizing the extra layers of security needed to open up our Slack again to new members, so if you’re on the waiting list please hold tight. We haven’t forgotten about you! This week we also announced a couple key additions to our team who help support our team internally and our community.

Introducing Our New Team Members By Jack Knutson

Our communities have been growing at an extreme pace, so to make sure we could support everyone interested in our project we brought on two new team members. These team members are here to help answer questions and to be supportive of our community. Elizabeth Petrovska is our newest Community Manager. She has experience with community managing before coming to Keep and is fluent in Russian! Hope Cowan is our Project Support person and helps with a variety of communications efforts. She comes from a communication and counseling background and is a great addition to the team. Be sure to welcome both when you get the chance.

Protecting Yourself Against Scammers and Phishing Attempts By Jack Knutson

This space is quickly evolving and changing daily, there are new breakthroughs every week. Unfortunately, scammers are evolving at a rapid pace too. We put together some best practices to keep yourself safe and how to avoid scammers. The biggest takeaway: always do your due diligence and take time to ensure information is coming from official sources.

From the Community

Our technical channel in the community is a fantastic place to ask questions and engage with our engineers. Below is a conversation from that channel about threshold groups and how seeding works.

The threshold relay is a way to chain threshold signatures to create a random beacon. Each iteration, a new signing group is chosen by the previous iterations random value. The relay’s next entry is not 100% dependent on previous data from the relay. It’s also dependent on information that is on the chain. This is important because if it were entirely based on the relay’s previous data, frontrunning would be a very real problem.
