Daml Developer Monthly - July 2021

Heads up, we're trying something new, if you want the latest Daml Connect release notes scroll to the bottom.

What's New

First and foremost, Frankie won our latest community recognition ceremony for many reasons that can simply be summed up as being a very valued member of our forum. He'll be receiving a bobblehead in his likeness and a Daml hoodie as thanks. One day I hope to get one of these bobbleheads.

Then we had huge news from Nasdaq that they'll be supporting Daml on their Marketplace Services Platform.

The partnership with Digital Asset is another step forward in Nasdaq’s journey to create a dynamic marketplace that supports all kinds of markets worldwide. While Daml has a strong foundation in capital markets, we see opportunities for this technology in similar types of non-financial markets where supply and demand needs to be matched and later settled in blockchain or other platforms.

For the rest of this Daml Developer Monthly (DDM) we're going to take a slightly different approach than we have in the past and highlight some of the wonderful questions and conversations going on around Daml to answer big questions about why things works the way they do.

check out our "Excellent Question" and "Excellent Answer" badges for...well...lots of excellent questions and answers!
