Holger [IF] ### Another IOTA EVM status update: Things have been progressing very well. Our Ecosystem is ready to take the next step! - The long-awaited MultiSignature Wallet has been deployed and tested; it is available here: https://safe.iotaledger.net/ - The previous Shimmer EVM MultiSignature Wallet is also in the network dropdown list on that website. - The third-party RPC Nodes have been set up and tested and are already being used by teams deploying and testing their applications on IOTA EVM. - The Indexer / Subgraph solution is already in use, and teams are building their subgraphs. - Both Oracle providers work flawlessly and have already provided Pull and Push Oracle services for the Teams in the EVM. - We have made significant progress in educating our teams on some of the essential utilities and opportunities our EVM will offer, and the teams are preparing their applications for this exciting opportunity. - Many teams have joined our dedicated Builder Discord in the last few weeks, and the number of apps and opportunities available on IOTA EVM has increased significantly. Some teams were introduced in the previous Grants status update, and others have followed. - Our Ecosystem and BD Team has tirelessly worked to combine all the pieces to create a flourishing DeFi and RWA Ecosystem. The fruits of this work will present themselves to our Ecosystem and Community once the EVM goes live and the ramp-up phase starts. - We are also working on some initiatives for our community to celebrate the launch of IOTA EVM. @everyone

Holger [IF] <@&999632637108957204> Dear Node Operators! Want to run your own Wasp Node? Get direct access to the ShimmerEVM network and help it become more distributed and resilient! Follow the steps detailed in our Wiki here: https://wiki.iota.org/wasp/how-tos/running-an-access-node/ To connect your node to the network, you need to peer with another node. Our Discord server features a dedicated channel for peering requests #🤝｜nodesharing To mitigate potential attack vectors, please reveal your node's IP address only via DM to a peering Partner. A Group of dedicated Community Node Operators, the @Wasp-AccessNode group has already benn set up with our dedicated Access Nodes and will provide the community with the first line of peers. You can ping them to get a first peer and then set up peers with others.
