3 min readOct 19, 2022

Our $PCHU airdrop distribution remains on October 22nd, 2022. This post serves as a reminder to Kylians who are yet to prepare for the drop.

The PICHIU airdrop is designed to incentivize the holders of ERC20 KYL tokens. If you’re yet to prepare for the airdrop, visit the airdrop page and complete the process either through option 1 or 2. Learn more from the initial airdrop details announcement.

PS: Option 1 is a more user-friendly and automatic process. It’s recommended. We’ve also put together guides to walk you through either of the processes. Find the documentation here.

Kylin Host Workshop in 2 days

As announced sometime last week, Sylvain Cormier, Kylin’s Tech Lead, will remotely host a workshop during the Polkadot LATAM Hackathon. Other Kylin Technical team members will join him. The initial workshop theme was “NFT MetaData or IPFS Storage Layer, but due to unforeseen circumstances, we will be changing the topic for the workshop to “ Kylin tooling for the Federated Parachain Oracle System.”

The time for the hackathon is 15:00 UTC on the 21st of October. Interested community members can join the Kylin hackathon session via Zoom at this link.

KYL and PCHU coins are Now Available on Nova Wallet

You can now manage and monitor your Kylin assets on Nova Wallet, one of the most advanced applications in the Polkadot Ecosystem. In a recent announcement, we shared that Pichiu and Kylin have been added to the list of parachains whose assets can be managed on the application.

Shortly, as our product and mainnet launch draw closer, we’ll be releasing exciting programs and initiatives to promote the utility of both coins, now that they’re both parachains on Polkadot and Kusama, respectively.

Support for ETH-KYL Staking Challenges

We have heard some complaints from our community users that find it challenging to unstake their ETH-native KYL tokens from the Kylin staking page. Which came as a directive from the team behind Kylin to ensure community members held their ETH-KYL in non-custodial wallets, which qualifies users to receive the PCHU airdrop.

The staking program was discontinued after Kylin attained a parachain status by winning the parachain auction for slot #25. As detailed in this tweet, made by the team, after becoming a parachain, the staking program was to be paused to assess and make plans aligned with the project’s goals.

About Kylin Network

Kylin Network strives to be a composable and configurable multi-level oracle infrastructure built as a Polkadot parachain, for the democratization and delivery of accurate data on time, at a reliably low cost. Kylin hopes to offer a way for chain-agnostic APIs to serve data according to service level agreements (SLA) that the consumers of this data will be aware of.

Data source compatibility beyond price feeds will bootstrap a free data market. This will allow market demand to determine the direction of the innovation of a feed, its price, and supply. With dynamic NFTs & SFTs, Kylin’s ongoing development will innovatively tokenize data streams that democratically will be accepted on the Kylin Network.
