Ah, I see.

Are confidential transactions still seen as possible? Is the bug viewed as fix-able?

Yes, it's coming, only a little bit slower than anticipated. If I remember correctly, there will be first a dedicated client for stealth transfers and when it has been tested enough, GUI will be implemented to the regular wallet.

Stealth = confidential + blinded transfers

Developers will know better but I think it will need maybe a month or so until it's ready.
The bug will be fixed on 4th April (the next hard fork). Then we'll be able to try the GUI on the chain.

Hi, Bitshares investor here.

I've very keen to see how confidential transactions will work in BTS. I understand the hard-fork required for the functionality has already taken place. When will it be available within any of the common GUIs?

Thanks.
There is still a sad bug in the back-end so it still requires at least one more hard fork.
