As the week ends, let's take a moment to look back at what we've achieved in the past few days and see what we've got to look forward to in the week to come.
Particl Team Proposal #5 Approved 🎉
The voting for the fifth community funding proposal has concluded earlier this week and the results are in. In total, we've observed a participation rate of 50% of all staked blocks, and an approval rate of 84.5%, meaning that the proposal has been officially approved by Particl stakeholders!
We'd like to thank everyone that has participated in this voting process and we look forward to push great things for the Particl ecosystem in the months to come.
Marketplace Moderation Update 🛒
We've made significant progress this week with the AI-powered moderation tool for Particl Marketplace. Indeed, last week we mentioned that we were working on connecting it to the marketplace so that the voting decisions could actually be broadcast to the broader network, and we're happy to note that we've successfully achieved this.
We're now testing script for various cases and adding in some additional features to give more control to users, as well as make the user experience more intuitive, but all of that is part of the final stage of this script's development process.
We should be ready to start testing it across a wider selection of environments in the next couple of days, with a subsequent release happening shortly thereafter if everything goes smoothly.

Privacy Roundtable 🗣️
If you missed this week's episode of the Privacy Roundtable featuring Monero contributor and SeraiDEX lead developer Luke Parker, we highly recommend you set aside time to watch the replay. The episode was exceptional in every aspect, offering valuable insights and discussions.
As always, we thank you immensely for your passion and dedication to Particl and what it's working towards achieving. None of it would be possible without you all!
We wish you a great weekend we'll see you all back on Monday! 👋
