Dear community,
Its been a long time without updates so i will try to summarize what we were doing and were we are going.
I was holding the update because we are pretty close to the release of 3rd version and i wanted this post to be that notice.
We still working on the 3rd version (the last alpha) code name "making bitAssets usable everywhere Bitcoin is accepted".
We are integrating the wallet backend with liquidity providers like CryptoHedge (through metaexchange.info) and also in talks with other bitcoin service providers.
@cass has joined our team and is helping us with the new design and branding,
Anyway, the 3rd release will still be using our old-and-ugly design with minor modifications while @cass works on the new one for v4.
So v3 will look something like this.
And v4 will look something like this.
------------------------------
Were we are going.
We want to build a company on top of the wallet service.
In fact we already have a name for it ... LIME.
Pablo (@dargonar), besides working on the frontend, is working on a pitch deck to show to potential investors.
The 100% delegate position is helping us bootstrap the company, but as you may know this can't even pay one developer salary. So we are looking to raise seed funding.
We believe that LIME besides being for profit will also bring value to the BitShares shareholders as a whole.
As bytemaster said "Every delegate should have a business plan", we are going in that direction.
Besides all this, we are working side-by-side with @matt608, @fran2k and @rgcrypto holding meetups in the Buenos Aires Bitcoin Center, teaching the local Bitcoin community about BitShares and bitAssets, doing paper wallets giveaways, creating a video about BitShares in spanish with the people from btcenespanol.com and (as soon as i have some time) helping BTCTrip.com to accept bitUSD as a payment method.
Thats all for now, stay tuned for v3 update.
Matias
