>--- HOOKS & EVERNODE ALPHA ---

So as you all may know, major developments are being publicized related to Hooks, B2M, and a little bit of Evernode here and there.

I'd like to release some alpha here because you guys are NOT 100% zombies who can't think for themselves. My motive with releasing this alpha on xsg is simple, network effects w/ a good seed on the ground, no malintent. I'm sure there are some schizos in here that still aren't a part of the XRPL dev community (we have a number of schizos w/ key roles), join us!

>HOOKS

ICYMI: Hooks are layer-1 (native) smart contracts on the XRPL. (read up: https://xrpl-hooks.readme.io/docs )

A variety of parties developed, tested and pushed for the Hooks amendment's voting process on the mainnet but it seems like Ripple doesn't want it, and nobody wanted t to waste any of their limited resources. As Ripple was positive with a multi-chain ecosystem with XRP, the Hooks sidechain is proposed w/ the Import amendment (B2M).

The XRPL ecosystem will be introduced to a new sidechain, the Hooks sidechain (not the official name), which would have a ((few)) features available:
- Hooks (smart contracts)
- URITokens (light-weight NFTs)
- Import (for B2M)
- and a few others...

Many are validating this as the XRPL's next evolution, but it's really up to you on how you perceive and react to this.

So what do?

> For now
Study Hooks & B2M, look into what they do and how it can revive the XRPL. Study Evernode as well.
> Future
The more updates are released, study them, think->discuss->brainstorm->share->plan.

Think like a dev, like an economist, like an enterprise, like a FI/gov
