Status, a long-standing open-source project in the Ethereum ecosystem, has unveiled a new satirical sci-fi cartoon series, USS Status, alongside a revamped privacy super-app and a gasless Layer 2 network. The cartoon, available on platforms like YouTube and TikTok, humorously explores the chaotic history of the crypto space. The updated Status app integrates a secure crypto wallet, privacy messenger, and web browser, emphasizing privacy and digital freedom. Additionally, Status Network introduces a gasless L2 blockchain using the zkEVM Linea stack, featuring a reputation-based Karma system to eliminate gas fees. The mainnet launch is anticipated in Q1, with pre-deposit vaults for staking now open.
