Blockchain network Flow recorded its strongest quarter to date in the three months ended June, according to a newly released report from research firm Messari. The study cites Flow’s status as the most-adopted chain by participants in ETHGlobal hackathons throughout the year and highlights gains in user activity driven by community reward programs. Building on the momentum, the Flow Foundation said it is expanding its team and preparing the "Forte" upgrade, slated for October. The update is intended to boost the network’s capacity and add new developer features, although detailed specifications have not yet been published. Flow executives and analysts from Messari plan to hold a public audio briefing on Thursday, 28 Aug., at 4 p.m. Eastern to discuss the quarterly findings and outline the roadmap for the forthcoming Forte release.
