Bubbles launches on mainnet, farmers are relentless
@Bubbles2Earn - the dApp that promotes using a refillable bottle instead of a single-use-one, has successfully launched on mainnet. It’s passport system was seriously tested instantly. And it held up.
Throughout the week, bad actors have attacked Bubbles backend systems continuously. Rewards distributions were triggered at a few points, maxing out user’s submissions (with valid passports only), and forcing Bubbles to take down the dApp. Rewards were never sent out to bad actors.
Following that, the dApp has been taken offline here and there but all undistributed rewards are saved and will be distributed later.
Great work Bubbles team, keep it up. Bad actors are not winning.

HangnDry releases a full FAQ page
@HangnDry has released a comprehensive FAQ page on their website. They’re currently looking for endorsements so if you have any to spare, I’m sure they’ll appreciate it.

BetterSwap adds social logins with the VeChain kit
If you want to login using a Google, Discord, Twitter account (or others) instead of connecting your wallet through VeWorld, @MyVechain has you covered.
They’ve just added social logins as an option as well as the full @vechainofficial kit to view your balance, customize your profile, view all other VeBetterDAO dApps, and more. Love to see it!

MeterMate announces ID verification
@meter_mate is soon launching an ID verification process that user’s can complete to receive additional rewards from their dApp and other soon-to-come features.
They are using the same KYC process as @st3pr_vet, @green_commuter, @veduck_vet (and likely more soon) use. So if you have completed KYC for any of those dApps, you should be good to go for MeterMate too.

Green Commuter is soon updating in a major way
Soon, @green_commuter is updating their dApp in a few major ways:
- Queued rewards - instead of relying on a demand meter, users will instead record their Strava activities and just queue up the reward payments to be paid out later.
- The UI is updating. A fresh new look and smoother navigation.
- Social logins are coming. Just like for BetterSwap, you will soon be able to use any social login to access the dApp.
- Improved error handling. Clearer and more helpful error messages.
- Back-end fixes. Stability and performance improvements.
Great work team, looking forward to seeing all of this being implemented.

ScoopUp alters rewards from round 44
With another successful week behind them, @scoopup_Vet has given away 70.13% of their B3TR allocation. From round 44 (starting April 28th 2025) they will be slightly altering the rewards structure. The new rules are:
- Scoops are now worth 6 B3TR each
- Max amount of Scoops per week increased from 24 to 28
New users are joining their dApp after successful social media campaigns and remember to use the dogsofVeChain hashtag when posting to X. You might just win yourself a @VVardogsnNFT if you’re lucky, and who knows. They might just have some future use?
