EtherWorld's weekly: Edition 100 | Ecency

Dear Reader,

With immense pleasure, I welcome you to join us in the celebration of 100th edition of EtherWorld's Blockchain Weekly.

Looking back at Edition 01, EtherWorld started with a mission of creating awareness about the blockchain technology and brought a lot of learning for myself (as an individual) too. We've been sharing blockchain technical articles, newsand project updates for about 2 years. We've been trying to contribute to the community within our capacity with EtherWorld.co.

Today, I am happy to share the news that now not only we intend to serve the community with EtherWorld.co but also have started lending support to the project management team of Ethereum Blockchain. Recently, I've joined the Ethereum Cat Herders group and hope to continue contributing my bit.

I would want to thank all students (trainees), guest authors and project teams who chose EtherWorld.co to share their learning, stories and project updates. Your stories are milestones of EtherWorld's journey. Thank you subscribers for all love and support.I hope to see more guest authors, subscribers joining EtherWorld.co and be the part of our learning. Feel free to reach us at [email protected] with your comments, questions and suggestions. We reply to every email received.

Sincerely,
Pooja Ranjan
