Lisk Account Initialization

In the past weeks, we have noticed an increased interest in the Lisk project, coupled with a rise in the token price. Therefore, we decided to take this opportunity to remind the Lisk Wallet users about the required actions to keep their Lisk account safe and secure.

We published a comprehensive blog post regarding the current situation, a step-by-step explanation of the account initialization procedure, and our solutions to solve the existing issue with uninitialized accounts. Finally, we also provided a list of answers to the frequently asked questions on this topic.

Lisk Builders Program: Interview with Kasra

Earlier this month we published a blog post covering an interview with a Lisk Builders program participant, Kasra Abbaszadeh. Kasra built the Nash Stablecoin Project with the Lisk SDK back in 2020 as part of the Lisk Builders program.

Nash is a stablecoin that is designed to maintain its price stability by using an algorithmic mechanism, without the requirement for central control on supply and demand, as in the case with many famous stablecoins. In this interview, Kasra talks about his motivation to apply for the Lisk Builders program, his experience of developing with the Lisk SDK, and his plans for the future to further develop his project.
