The Binance Supply Chain PoolTogether is no longer active... but the Polygon/MATIC PoolTogether now has increased rewards! Thanks Oops for distributing the rewards manually every week!
JUNGLETV.LIVE
What is JungleTV? https://jungletv.live/ is a site where we basically watch youtube videos together, chat about it, and get some BAN at the end of every video. The users that want to share a video can add it to the video queue by paying a few BAN
A new JungleTV feature was revealed! Specific time ranges of YouTube videos can now be enqueued, and longer videos can be enqueued in separate parts with a maximum of 35 minutes each!
The feature to have multiple JungleTV channels is requested a lot... but for now we don't want to split the JungleTV community 👀
NEXT COMMUNITY CALL
The date will be announced soon! It won't be next week or the week after
