Hi Metisian, it's time for the monthly wrap-up! The month of March was a great month for the Metis community, which witnessed remarkable achievements. During March, Metis achieved two significant milestones. Firstly, it became the first Ethereum L2 ever to decentralize its sequencer, which will enable many significant upsides. Secondly, Metis has been listed on the #1 exchange at a global scale, Binance. Additionally, Community Testing rewards have been shared.
Great month overall, and now, we invite you to take a look at the top 5 DApps for the Builder Mining Rewards program. Let's go through them together.
Metis has launched its decentralized sequencer, becoming the first rollup platform in Ethereum Layer 2 space to achieve this feat—a monumental step for both Metis and the broader crypto industry. This move emphasizes the importance of decentralization and security, addressing the main concerns of centralized sequencers such as censorship, reordering, and liveness risks.

Participants in the Metis decentralized sequencer community testing can now claim their rewards. We've crafted this reward campaign to express our gratitude to community members who dedicated their time and effort to conducting stress tests on the Sepolia testnet. These tests were crucial for a seamless decentralized sequencer upgrade, assisting Metis developers in identifying issues and bugs and exploring avenues for enhancement. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in this vital community testing—your contributions are immensely valued.
For those who were unable to participate in the community testing campaign, there's no need for disappointment. There will be many Mainnet initiatives and opportunities that users will be able to benefit from. So, keep an eye out for them!
