+Highlights of the Cuprate meeting of July 23 2024:
+
+## Updates:
+
+- **boog900**: "I finished the PR adding alt chain handling to the consensus code and have started work on the tx pool".
+- **hinto-janai**: "finishing up RPC types, started the RPC interface - only around ~18 days left in my CCS but I'll think I'll be close to finishing on time."
+
+## What is next:
+
+There has been discussion on hinto's remaining work and potential future work to complete. There has also been discussion on balancing
+between development time and optimistic release timeline. The actual stance is to work in parallel on several part towards alpha (testnet) release but
+first refine the existing codebase and improve testing.
+
+- boog900 plan on reducing the amount of duplicated code between the blockchain and tx-pool. They might formalize a proposal, as suggested by hinto-janai.

+Highlights of the Cuprate meeting of July 30 2024:
+
+## Updates:
+
+- **fluorescent_beige**: "still issue #209, didn't have as much time for it as I thought but getting somewhere now"
+- **boog900**: "I have been working on the txpool and planning out what the incoming tx flow will look like".
+- **hinto-janai**: "I've mostly finished the RPC interface library, still need to finish testing/documentation + split into PRs"
+- **yamabiiko**: "took some time off ahead of CCS,  looking to pick up some issues / expanding tests as suggested"
+
+## What is next:
+
+There has been discussion on work to accomplish by yamabiiko. As well as precedent issues with binary string serialization (for mixed json/epee encoding) and difference
+in JSON specifications compliance by monerod serialization library (monerod can accept some invalid JSON, cuprate can't).
+
+- hinto-janai prepared a draft of their next CCS proposal.
+- hinto-janai proposed to request core monero to drop out mixed json/epee encoding. Yamabiiko supported the idea.
+- Boog900 proposed yamabiiko to work on database after it's alternative block operation PR.
+- hinto-janai is planning on making PR on monero-site repository to fix RPC documentation
