July was an amazing month for the PersistenceOne community. We all experienced what I’ll describe as “Total Nonstop Action” and I couldn’t wait to talk about it. On one hand, I thought of making a summary of the general activities that went down, but that has been provided already in the Community Newsletter below. So on the other hand, I decided to present a more detailed version of the highlights for July, and particularly, I decided to give it that twitter feeling as though you were reading the live tweets. That being said, let’s talk about it………..

July 1st: $XPRT got listed on Coin Codex, and Persistence partnered with Tendermint. View tweets below:
