Quick Bites

• AMP’s Zapper integration has been migrated to Zapper Studio. Now, users can see their tokens in the capacity contract, how much they have earned, and the range of historical rewards (data will update every 15 minutes to reduce API calls).

  

• In January, AMP was added to MEXC, a global multi-asset digital trading platform.

• Flexa announced it would be sponsoring WalletCon, the first conference dedicated to the digital wallet experience, taking place during ETHDenver.
