Agenda

Please put your agenda items here

• We as wallet developers need contract metadata. How do we get contract deployers to publish their contract metadata JSON? Can we introduce some quality stamp/seal that is displayed next to contracts/tokens that indicates quality attributes like published metadata/verified code, ..?
• How do we deal with duplications in token symbols - Don't we allow new tokens with a symbol that already exists to protect users? Other means to distinguish between tokens that have the same symbol?
• EIP-1102: Opt-in provider access
• EIPs in WIP stage: 1066 1192 1001 961
