We appreciate that it has been a while since our last update and with a few months of 2020 already past it certainly feels like the right time to bring you up to

As the month of August ends we are excited to share significant updates about the Dock Network and our progress towards enabling an internet of trust through verifiable digital credentials. Our priority has been completing the milestones outlined in our grant from the Web3 Foundation.

As Dock pushes forward our vision for an internet of trust enabled through verifiable data, we are excited to announce our grant approval from the Web3 Foundation. This grant serves as a validation of our team and solution and is an opportunity to be a significant contributor to Polkadots ecosystem.

Dock was founded with a mission to solve inefficiencies in existing data solutions: untrusted and inaccurate information, data silos and gatekeepers, incompatibilities, and lack of control for users. After exhaustive research, the solution: standards-compliant, verifiable digital credentials.

The team has been hard at work over the past few weeks improving the credential platform for both recipients & organizations while also preparing for the voting outcome of DGP-2. The major changes to the voting process mentioned in June's mid-month update also went live last week.

Our latest efforts have been aimed at continuing to improve the overall user experience- for those issuing digital credentials through Dock and for those receiving them. With that in mind, we're excited to share our last two weeks of progress in June's mid-month update.

Dock has a lot of work in progress and we’re introducing a mid-month update to keep our community aware of all updates. You can find our monthly updates in the Updates section of our blog, and expect an update half-way through each month as well as continuing with the monthly recap moving forward.

As adoption of Dock's all-in-one blockchain anchored digital credential solution grows, we want to make sure our community is growing right along with it. We've been working tirelessly to bring our work into the spotlight and it's vitally important that our progress is easily accessible.

During April, our team made strong headway on our next major launch, which is our digital credential issuing platform. Organizations of all types - associations, universities, e-learning sites, and many more - will be able to issue universally verifiable digital credentials anchored on blockchain.

What types of organizations would you like to issue digital certificates on Dock? Recently the team has been meeting with various organizations about joining our platform to issue verifiable digital certificates anchored on blockchain. Vote today on Prop 14 so we can target the right organizations.

Our March marked the biggest update ever from Dock. We released the Dock Wallet, a place for storing, verifying & sharing your digital credentials. We also rolled out a platform for organizations to issue & manage blockchain-backed certificates and badges. Read on for the full story about whats new
