Your snapshot of the key events in the Fantom ecosystem in the last two weeks.

New governance proposal: dApp Gas Monetization Program

The proposed gas monetization program will reward high-quality dApps to retain and grow the talented builder base in the Fantom ecosystem.

If passed, this implementation will reduce Fantom’s burn-rate of 20% to 5% and redirect this 15% reduction towards gas monetization. This gas monetization will reward high-quality dApps, retain talented creators, and support Fantom’s network infrastructure.
