[quaint otter]

All good!! Getting new contributors and builders in our ecosystem!! Currently running our 2nd Open Source campaign on Only Dust 😉

[quaint otter]

Have you checked out Only Dust? You can get rewarded for contributions there.

[livid coral]

Sure I will check that once again

[dusky stone]

Hello I went to Trustless Work website to see if I could find the contact to their support team but to no avail was I able find anything. I'm looking forward to integrated an escrow service built on Stellar blockchain in my e-commerce platform after we're through building and deploying.

How can I contact the trustless team?

[frosty kindle]

@quaint otter

[quaint otter]

Thanks @frosty kindle !

[quaint otter]

Hello! Thanks for tour feedback, will add it to the website asap.

You can dm me or ask here too for future reference.

[dusky stone]

Hey Brieuc brother I forgot to thank you for helping me to connect with the team of Trustless Work. Hey let me know if I can help you in anyway buddy.

[frosty kindle]

You are welcome. Trustless Work's solution deserves even more!

I am going to submit Flashback to SCF33 (category "Applications"). We are building the decentralized Snowflake for AI and web3 companies ☺️

Your support is welcome and if you are looking for storing your data there, an alpha will be out in mid-january to be tested. 🙏

[dusky stone]

Awesome

Hello all!
Happy New Year!!
Here is the latest Trustless Work update:
https://open.substack.com/pub/trustlesswork/p/trustless-work-new-years-update

[spark tusk]

Coulld an application or escrow accounts to be used as a kind of verification of identity in DAO voting?

[quaint otter]

Hmm I have not really thought about it that way tbh, can you elaborate? In what sense?

Could be used for treasury and budget allocation for sure

[spark tusk]

So many DAO think that just having the same system as the old world is fine. Whoever holds the most makes all the decisions.

I personally think that DAOs have the potential of giving all people a real voice.

The problem is that it is not that hard for bad actors to just replicate hundreds/thousands of wallets to make them seem like a grassroot organization.

If DAOs are ever to be fully controlled by the body and not just a select few there needs to be a way to provide integrity for any other voting system that relies on personal input and not just pure Whale Rule.

[quaint otter]

I agree with that, but I dont seem to see how escrows can help there to be honest. Would love to understand your perspective on that. So basically what our escrows do is hold funds until a milestone is marked as done (milestone marker signs), it then is approved by another party (milestone approved), and then is released (milestone released). By configuring the roles (marker, approver and releaser , and also who receives (receiver) and who can modify in case of disputes (dispute resolver), any platform can use escrows for different use cases (marketplaces, crowdfunding, contracting, etc)

So this abstracts the smart contracts so that platforms only have to send an API call with the role assignment and thats it.

Then anyone can deposit, but only the wallets assigned to each role can play their part towards payment release

As for DAOs, I see it for budget allocation (grants, rewards, projects), vesting, and so on.

[spark tusk]

I also can't think of a way escrows could work as a support for the DAO conundrum of equitable and community voting.

[quaint otter]

Hello all!
We are getting the backlog ready for ODWeek #1 (Only Dust's Open Source Campaigns) and would love your feedback on improvements / integrations to build!
For those interested in contributing, this is the way!
Pura Vida!

[quaint otter]

Hello! We just sent the update to release the second Tranche! Here is our demo video!

[quaint otter]

@ocean cape here is the video demo

[ocean cape]

This is very nice 👍 I will dive deeper and think about how I can integrate your solution with Tansu 🙂

[gaunt geyser]

Hey @quaint otter , many thanks for the demo video. I'm just looking at your dapp and don't know exactly how to change the status of the milestone. I don't have any buttons. What am I doing wrong? Can you help me?

[quaint otter]

Are you logged in with the service provider wallet?

[gaunt geyser]

yes, you can see it in the upper left corner of the screenshot

[quaint otter]

I'll dm you

[gaunt geyser]

okay, thanks

[quaint otter]

Should be fixed now! thanks! @gaunt geyser

Let's go 🚀

The escrows with Stellar,
Will be a foundation pillar!

[shrewd fern]

Hi @quaint otter
Femi from Utoken here.
We are currently exploring potential ecosystem project to work with and Eascrow caught our attention. We will love to know how far the project is and how we can integrate the escrow functionality with Utoken which is currently live on iOS and Android

I had initially reached out here https://discord.com/channels/897514728459468821/1274638256172044420 but didn't get a response.

I am open to discussing the possibility of an integration with Trustless

[quaint otter]

Sure! Would love to

Feel free to dm, or we can do the discussion here for visibility

[shrewd fern]

I will send a dm
There are more business specifics to discuss

[shrewd fern]

Hi @quaint otter
How's the development going?
I have a quick question to ask
Can Milestones created be released in any particular order?

[quaint otter]

They will on the multirelease

[shrewd fern]

What do you mean by multirelease?

[quaint otter]

So we have different escrow types. The single release requires all milestones to be completed and approved before the full amount is release, And the multi release, which allows for amounts to be release per milestone.

[shrewd fern]

Ok that makes sense
We are making necessary preparations to do some integration and testing with Utoken in May

[shrewd fern]

@maiden sage

[bright copper]

Hi @quaint otter , How's the development going?
I'd like to contribute to Trustless, How can I contribute?

[quaint otter]

Hi! We constantly put out tasks and issues on github, but the best way is through Only Dust, that way you might get rewarded!

https://app.onlydust.com/projects/trustless-work-

And this is out Github!:
https://github.com/Trustless-Work

[bright copper]

@quaint otter Can I work on tasks or issues on Trustless github directly?

[quaint otter]

Yeah sure

[bright copper]

https://github.com/Trustless-Work/Trustless-Work-Smart-Escrow/issues/30
Can I have a look this task? or is this assigned already to core devs?

[quaint otter]

Let me check cause it seems like it was done already by @past badger

We just finished an OS campaign yesterday, so most issues have been completed.

Whats your github?

[bright copper]

https://github.com/0xhiros

[shrewd fern]

Gm @quaint otter
What's good pal and how is development going
When launch?

[quaint otter]

Hello!
We just unlocked the audits for tranche 2 and are about to do our first mainnet test by End of Next week

So very soon 🙏

[analog condor]

Hey everyone, congratulations on the tranche 2! I can't wait to see this project on mainnet! Kudos to the team

[shrewd fern]

I’m looking forward to that🤸

[quaint otter]

Thanks!

[shrewd fern]

Good morning, @quaint otter
Can the escrow feature be extended or used for saving by users. In a way that only the user can release the money in their pocket (the escrow smart contract) when they need it?

Can an escrow smart contract be reused?

[quaint otter]

1- yes but It wont generate yield.
2- not the flow it is intended for, but technically, yes

[shrewd fern]

I understand the first part.
On the second part can the fee part be eliminated in this case.

[quaint otter]

We can make that happen, sure.

[shrewd fern]

Great
This is making sense

[quaint otter]

Hello all! as @sand lance announced recently, Testnet reset is coming. We are also doing a mayor upgrade on the same dates to V2. Learn more here! https://www.trustlesswork.com/escrow-times/news-v2-testnet-reset

@quaint otter
My team member need help with some issues
@prime ridge provide more context

[quaint otter]

I'm here, let me know.

[prime ridge]

@quaint otter The challenge we’re facing is that the wallet provider we’re using — DFNS — automatically broadcasts transactions immediately after signing. As a result, we’re unable to use the sendTransaction endpoint to capture the contract ID upon deployment.

I reached out on Telegram and was informed that we can retrieve the contract ID using the transaction hash. I’d appreciate a high-level overview of how to go about that.

[quaint otter]

We are also figuring that out on our end. But my assumption is the following. I assume DFNS the resulting transaction hash correct?

If so, we could build an endpoint to get EscrowID from txhash

[prime ridge]

Yes dfns returns the transaction hash

[quaint otter]

Because yeah, we assumed that TX would be passing through our Endpoint. But since you already have that step (which is great). Then we need to figure out how we could get the resulting EscrowID from that.

Can you provide an example of that Hash?

[prime ridge]

Here

2f23f0819e2b0977c2f184c45f6432c36dce2d04072cd32d823d53d3d02620da

[quaint otter]

Ok yeah. From that Hash, in Stellar Expert we can get the Contract ID: CAB7B6FVRKDA6A2XOKYXJZVEVQNXVCZG4WNIFPGM5MX4VTGN2TSYGV4A

I can verify that that is the correct one in the Excrow Viewer: https://viewer.trustlesswork.com/CAB7B6FVRKDA6A2XOKYXJZVEVQNXVCZG4WNIFPGM5MX4VTGN2TSYGV4A

It shouldnt take long for us to build an endpoint that takes that Tx hash and returns EscrowID

We have an upcoming Only Dust campaign this week. I will also do a Escrow Viewer task for this.

If you need it right now to test, the EscrowID is the selected contract address in that image (almost right in the middle of the screenshot. That's from pasting that hash into Stellar Expert.
https://stellar.expert/explorer/testnet/contract/CAB7B6FVRKDA6A2XOKYXJZVEVQNXVCZG4WNIFPGM5MX4VTGN2TSYGV4A

And congrats for succesfully Deploying an Escrow!

[shrewd fern]

@prime ridge can this contract ID be accessed using horizon API?

[shrewd fern]

Thank you 😂🥂

[quaint otter]

It should, yes.

But we will build an endpoint from that.

[shrewd fern]

@prime ridge

[shrewd fern]

That will be super helpful 🤝

[prime ridge]

Nice
I'll check it out

[prime ridge]

It seems horizon doesn't return that data. I've tried several approaches but none works yet
@quaint otter

[prime ridge]

I'm finding a work around to use the send transaction endpoint but I keep getting this error

{ message: 'Token not valid', error: 'Unauthorized', statusCode: 401 }

I'm using the same token that worked for deploying the contract

@quaint otter

[quaint otter]

https://lab.stellar.org/endpoints/rpc/get-transaction?$=network$id=testnet&label=Testnet&horizonUrl=https:////horizon-testnet.stellar.org&rpcUrl=https:////soroban-testnet.stellar.org&passphrase=Test SDF Network /; September 2015;&endpoints$params$transaction=2f23f0819e2b0977c2f184c45f6432c36dce2d04072cd32d823d53d3d02620da&xdrFormat=json;;

the getTransaction should be able to get it.

That's the approach I researched for the OD issue we opened.

[shrewd fern]

@prime ridge

[prime ridge]

Yes, the soroban rpc returned the contract address
I'll work with this
