On the heels of another successful hard fork, we’re pleased to give some updates on Status, an open source light client for Android and iOS.For those of you who missed our presentation at Devcon2, this is what we’ve quietly been working on this year.Status combines a messenger and a browser, to build a gateway for everyday smartphone users to begin using ÐApps, and a simple way for ÐApp developers to reach new users.In 2016, we are still only at the dawn of the Ethereum ecosystem.But given time, Status will evolve into a seamless way to interface with a full suite of decentralized applications and services.Our mission is to lower the barriers to entry on Ethereum.Not only will this create a more valuable ÐApp ecosystem, but also facilitate the transition to a more open internet.Although we haven’t made any public announcements until recently, it was a little over 18 months ago that we began porting the Ethereum Java implementation to Android (thanks to the foundation through a Ðevgrant we were awarded for this — successfully completed prior to Devcon1).Our original idea was to create a mobile ÐApp browser, but as we began observing our own behaviours on our smartphones, and analysing industry trends we took a different approach at the beginning of 2016.We’ve since grown to a team of eight headquartered in Singapore, and the product has evolved significantly.

We’re now running a full implementation of Go Ethereum, with the light client and Whisper protocols enabled.It became clear that if we wanted to build a platform for users to interact with smart contracts, it would need to be social.Humans are social creatures, and Ethereum is a social technology.If you want to get a glimpse at where mobile user experience is heading, one can turn to China.In the largest market by device volume, 36% of all time spent on smartphones is spent inside instant messaging applications.In both the US, and globally, messaging applications now boast even more active users than social networks.Hence, Status has a focus on messaging and chats.After all, when was the last time you signed an agreement without some social interaction around it beforehand?The first iteration of Status is geared towards the Ethereum developer community, and has a long way to go before it’s ready for the mass-market.A bare-bones Alpha release, with very limited functionality will be out towards the end of Q4.Our Beta is scheduled for Q2–3 2017, and will provide end-users with the following:Note: This will be an experimental release, and security audits will be completed over many phases.

During this release, it is important that you do not store any meaningful amount of Ether.Our Beta release will include tooling for Developers, and a Chat API so users can interact with ÐApps in a chat context.In Status, ÐApps are considered first-class citizens, and you can chat to them just as you would a friend.Chatbots won't always make sense, and it's important to note users can interact with ÐApps rendered both in Webkit and/or in chat, depending on the the desired functionality.While it’s still early days, if you’re working on a ÐApp and would like to see it inside Status, we’d love to talk to you.All ÐApps are welcome, and we’re particularly interested in identity and reputation systems, decentralized exchanges, lending and stable crypto-tokens.Status is an Ethereum-first client where Ethereum sub-protocols are first class citizens.bitcoin diario gestionSuch a client, like Mist, frees us from having to exclusively look backward for Blockchain integration with legacy technologies, but to start fresh, look forward and give Ethereum the space it needs to envision a world built on crypto-technologies.We have no disillusions to the amount of development yet to be undertaken, and reaching mass adoption hinges heavily upon further development of the ÐApp ecosystem, underlying protocols and service layers, and the scalability of the network in general.bitcoin ati radeon

Status is just a small, yet necessary facet in the complex ecosystem.Ultimately we see Status as a catalyst towards the widespread adoption of Ethereum, making it more palatable for a much wider audience.We’re excited to announce that today we’ve published the 1.0 release of Jaxx on the App Store, marking its public debut on Apple devices, as well as being the first Ethereum wallet for iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, and iPod).The 1.0 release will be available for all other Jaxx device at once, in the next couple days as we begin “Seven Days of Jaxx”.bitcoin paling besarMore on this later today.ethereal para windows 7 64 bitsDue to the DDoS attacks we were hit with earlier this week – a first for us – we’ve had to readjust our plan to launch the 1.0 release simultaneously on all platforms and devices.bitcoin wallet key pool

We were forced to spend days and developer resources working through the attacks.Please note that we did not and will never pay ransoms.All sites are now running normally.Props to our team for getting through the DDoS issues.It should be stressed that these attacks didn’t affect our wallets at all nor compromise any user information, save for briefly limiting access to our bitcoin web wallet, RushWallet.We have no idea if these attacks were competitor-based (as stated in the ransom email we received), but we’ve upped our sites’ security configuration to ensure there’s no recurrence, and at the end of the day, we’re stronger because of this whole ordeal.litecoin mac os, asking about the rumors that Apple was potentially blocking Ethereum wallets on the App Store.I told him this was the first we’d heard of it, and that we’d had a test build uploaded and approved on the App Store for over a week.We thought nothing of it until we saw the actual piece the following day mentioning the rumours.

We huddled, and unanimously decided to shift our priorities immediately to get the app up ASAP to test these rumors.Unfortunately for us, we had made some changes to Jaxx since our test build got approved by Apple, so we had to resubmit and hope for a reapproval – an anxious time.We had no idea if there’d been a change of policy on Apple’s end that might affect our chances.In the interim, we didn’t want to chime in on any rumors, just focus on getting the build released.Finally, we got word of the approval of the 1.0 build at 9:21pm EST last night.Because of the rush to push the iOS, there are some cosmetic issues with this release some might experience, specifically on smaller screens.We’re not happy about this but it will be improved very soon.We’re also disappointed that we didn’t get to issue all versions of the 1.0 simultaneously as originally envisioned.However, we also felt that this would be a nice treat for Apple fans who’ve been patiently waiting throughout our beta phase to use Jaxx.

This release will also serve as a test case for Apple’s stance on Ethereum apps down the road.We’re up, let’s see what happens next.On the subject of our Jaxx integration for The DAO: this has been a priority, as we believe that accessible integration tools are key to the overall success of the project, but unfortunately these elements won’t be ready for our initial 1.0 releases.This will be ready in plenty of time for voting on the first Proposals.We are, however, expecting our full-featured DAO integration to roll out during our “Seven Days of Jaxx,” which starts today.This is an initiative we’ve been planning for a while that will showcase foxes, hardware, cubes, integration plans, rockets, DAOs, proposals, and a bunch more goodies..We’re going all out, are super excited and believe the community will be as well.More to follow on this later today.YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE IOS VERSION HERE For those not familiar with Jaxx, it’s our multi-platform blockchain wallet, developed around a few key principles: All versions except for the iOS right now can be downloaded at the Jaxx website.
