UPDATE:
Nemgun's update (re-worded by me) via telegram:
the Dex is still on schedule
And that in the meantime the CEX (veserus) is almost ready and they still have to go to Dubai to get the licensing for it.
The next update of the wallet features an auto update function and early cluster linking.
They are preparing a new website/server for that kind of usage.
He also confirmed that the wallet will have the NVST/BTC in it along with other trading pairs, temporarily using veserus's exchange network.
He said there is no specific date as to when veserus will be up (no surprise there)
And that they have many, many test to run before they can launch, because they want to make sure it's secure and functions well so no one losses coins.
He then stated that the Dex will NOT be released in January they will have other updates, bug fixing, NEO listing, Clusters improvements.
He confirmed that in the near future nvo will be hiring a marketing team to handle nvo's popularity.
Some one asked his about nvst being switched to erc20 his response was:
nemgun nemgun:
G-Force (aka cooly4y aka gamera2)
it is not about that, the listing issue isn't about been ERC20 or not, the exchanges are scared as they are considering NVST as a security, which why they don't want to list.
So to wrap things up, we can expect to see some major updates soon.
Ton Bi's update from slack:
hey guys just some updates. We are pooling major efforts into veserus to launch it quickly. We haven't gone to dubai yet but we will later. It's much faster to set up a centralized exchange over a decentralized one and the benefits once veserus is up will be immense with current news of exchanges gaining 100k users a day, disabling registrations and other centralized exchanges doing billions in daily volume. This will really help with NVO in regards to both acquiring a user base and the price of NVST token. So really good news for everyone.
Thanks for the update!
