1/ Welcome to my first kick-off recap for $KILT
I plan to do this on a monthly basis and will now kick-off with what happened since the $KSM auction.
This recap contains:
- launch wrap-up
- partnerships / announcements
- events & info
- dyor
- Figures
$KSM $DOT @Kiltprotocol

2/ Wrap-up of the auction and launch:
On Sep 8th $Kilt won the 6th $KSM parachain auction in a landslide. They were the first project maxing out $KSM contribution amount with 220K.
The PLO rewards were 25 $KILT per 1 $KSM

3/ Within 2 months the @Kiltprotocol team was busy in working towards full decentralisation.

4/ Before full decentralisation $KILT had finished their security audit performed by Security Research Labs (SRLabs) to ensure the networks resilience against hackers. Network, Sporran &
$KILT SDK have been successfully audited.

5/ $KILT removed the Sudo key and handed over the @Kiltprotocol blockchain network to the community on Nov 10th and communicated full decentralisation.
A historical moment!

6/ Shortly hereafter #Sporran and the #Stakeboard had been launched.
1. Sporran is more like a physical than a crypto wallet as it not only contains $KILT but also stores credentials & digital identity.

7/ #Stakeboard on the other hand is your place to stake your precious $KILT and interact with the network.
Currently you can stake with 25 collators requiring at least 20 $KILT and be within the TOP25 nominators for a collator.

8/ Partnerships:
Dec 22nd @Kiltprotocol announced a BIG partnership underlying a desired use case - Gaming: @AttariusN
Gamers can form gaming guilds & DAOs that match each other in terms of skills, using $KILT credentials.

9/ Dec 13th @Kiltprotocol announced a hardware development partnership with @SpiderDAO
@ingoruebe stated: "We were interested in collaborating with SpiderDAO due to their unique approach to governance through machine identity"

10/ @Kiltprotocol $KILT announced collaboration with Integritee.
Through this integration @social_kyc could be run in a trusted environment, which ensures the authenticity of the code. 3rd parties can verify that SocialKYC is not storing any customer data.
