PIVX Development Update - Q1 2021

Recent Development Highlights
This update hopefully can fill you on what has been happening for the past 3 months in the core development side of things, as well as what is coming soon!

PIVX 5.0 Core Wallet with SHIELD Released!

On January 8th 2021, after nearly a year in development, the PIVX core wallet 5.0 (v5.0.0) was finally released, with it including the much awaited financial-privacy-enabling SHIELD protocol that can protect your transaction details from being seen publicly.

This release makes PIVX the very first Proof of Stake cryptocurrency in the world to have a fully working zk-SNARKs Sapling protocol on the mainnet!

Announcement: https://pivx.org/news/pivx-5-0-is-live

PIVX v5.0.1 Core Wallet Released

Shortly after the release of v5.0.0 in early January, a minor security and bug fix release was released in mid-January and is currently our latest version that everyone should be using.

If you are running a version that is older than v5.0.1, then your wallet will NOT be on the majority network. So make sure you upgrade ASAP.

Always go to Github Releases and download the latest version to ensure you benefit from all the latest fixes and enhancements.

SHIELD Protocol Now Active!

On January 30th 2021, the SHIELD protocol was activated on the PIVX mainnet network through a hard fork on block 2700500.

Only 2 minutes in from its activation, at block 2700502, we saw our first SHIELD transactions on the blockchain where transparent PIV were shielded using the new protocol for the first time!

1. We’re preparing to redeploy the chat application to hosts in our Alpha Test for Elemental Chat on Monday March 15th.
2. What that means is that hosts are going to experience the same chat experience but the historical messages will be cleared and we will begin to see the peers in the application grow from a small number back to the 360+ we have today.
3. In more technical terms we are updating the DHT by deploying a new DNA (application backend) with a new identifier for the shared database as well as a refactored frontend.
4. A Bit of Context : The current test has provided exactly what a test should provide - a learning opportunity. We have been watching and analysing performance and user experience in order to improve it.
5. We have found small bugs in the Elemental Chat front end, and also some networking issues related to the current state of Holochain development.
6. These findings let us reprioritise work in the Holochain team so that we better enable development priorities on the Holo roadmap. It really is a dance getting both Holochain and Holo production ready.
7. The test environment is still working fine, and this small reset of the host environment let’s us evaluate all together the many changes that have been made at different layers of our tech in the natural deployed environment.
8. We also are planning to begin sending email campaigns to the many HoloPort owners who have not yet turned on their ports and joined the conversation.
9.  Elemental Chat for hosts will be reset on Monday - March 15th
- Historical chat data will be cleared
- The chat experience will be essentially the same
- Hosts may notice that DNA reference is displayed differently in the hover

Today we share a new partnership with StakeCapital , who provide financial instruments and services on top of the leading DeFi and staking network, adding strength to our DeFi network.

Weekly Updates From the COTI Team

We had a very fruitful week with lots of exciting activities and news both for COTI and CVI. Here is our weekly recap:



We launched a new staking campaign with KuCoin which reached the 14M cap in less than 3 hours! This brings COTI’s locked supply to 123M https://medium.com/cotinetwork/coti-launches-a-new-staking-campaign-with-kucoin-59243b014c57



As COTI’s staking capacity is closely coupled with the business processing volume that continues to grow, we announced that we will increase each Community Node’s capacity for April allowing us to increase the staking pool and staking rewards, locking out more of our supply. https://cotinetwork.medium.com/staking-3-0-update-capacity-will-increase-sooner-than-projected-e1c54bb627a8
