- Exploring the westend API
- Addition of support for Westend on PolkaViz and deprecation of Alexander
- Addition of support for Westend on PolkAnalytics along with design changes to allow users to switch between the networks
2. Ethical Tracking to gain insight on how users are making use of the platform in order to determine and understand user flow. This insight will be used to determine improvements that need to be made to the platform.

#### How do we report on project’s progress?
Discord’s PolkaDAO channel
---
#### How can proposer guarantee results?
Similar to proposal logs that we had created for Proposal 00, Proposal 01, Proposal 02, Proposal 03, Proposal 04, Proposal 05, Proposal 06: [PolkaViz - Progress Logs](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IMF_Ik3mLoZrB3eDAhSb88J3aVtllyiy6c5ciNEJjAc/edit?usp=sharing)
We will be updating progress to the roadmap every 5 days to keep ourselves accountable.
One can keep us accountable by going through each step described in the timeline & double check if these were implemented.

## Future Iterations
* Address claiming:
* Validators need to advertise to nominators why they are stake worthy and hence they would be able to claim their address on the viz.
* By claiming the address, they can market themselves by adding social media links, team links, team description.
* A transparency score could be calculated where the more information they update, better their transparency score becomes.
* Punishment/Rewards visualization on the lines of: https://www.figma.com/file/NbC9ksPdtQT2yR6nByW82C0i/PolkaViz?node-id=221%3A4
* Kusama network evolution:
* A time slider that can help visualize the evolution of the network as it grows on the lines of https://earthtime.org/explore.
* Specifically features like:
* Play
* Pause
* Go back in time.
* Go live.
* Governance Visualizations:
* Seeing any current referenda or proposals
* Current value of the Treasury
* Current members of the Council
* Seeing tips to validators associated with current block
