UTU Trust Guardians,
Welcome to the June 2021 edition of the UTU Update!
Let’s jump right into all the happenings over the last month!
You can view the UTU Update in video form here:
Tech and Product Updates
We released a new version of the Trust API/SDK! This new version includes enhancements to the video reviews feature and other design improvements. We continue to integrate the Trust API with our pilot partners, and hope to go live with some of them soon.
Regarding the UTU protocol testnet, we made significant progress on the UTU Trust Token functionality and integrating trust oracles into our Trust API. But due to the recent Aeternity hard fork, we will have to make significant changes to the testnet. We will publish more details in our upcoming roadmap update.
We made a bunch of upgrades to our M-PESA Parser, which allows our customers in Africa to easily extract important information from mobile payment statements. We’ve started building the ability to extract data from business statements (in addition to personal statements), and extended our capabilities to allow bulk upload of data, which is critical for some of our pilot clients.
Finally, we are putting the finishing touches on our Creditworthiness API, which will launch soon!
Ocean Protocol Partnership
We scored a huge partnership with Ocean Protocol to integrate our trust infrastructure into their data marketplace, Ocean Market!
We will provide trust signals for data providers, data consumers, datasets, and other entities on Ocean Market, and users will be able to rate and review each of these entities as well.
We’ll be building various web apps and widgets on both Ocean Protocol and Polygon to deliver our trust signals. Fees for software development and UTU API usage will be funded by the Ocean Protocol Foundation, and the bulk of the work will be completed by Q4 2021.
This will accelerate our product development immensely!

The UTU BSC-to-Ethereum direction of the bridge is now live
The UTU on BSC to Ethereum direction of the Meter Passport bridge is now working!
Upon the initial launch of the bridge, we ran into some issues with the minter/burner functions in the contract, and now those issues have been fixed so you can now port UTU between Ethereum and BSC in both directions.
Read our tutorial on how to use Meter Passport to port $UTU between Ethereum and BSC in both directions.
