I really like their new office. Looks good!

What is LIR? Can anyone explain me pls

Hi there!, I was disconnected for a while, questions:  It's the web login https://login.lisk.io/ safe for wallet use? and, Someone know why deposit/withdraw on polo it's being disabled from time on time?

Hey, thanks.  I appreciate that.  I will try and post on here more often.  I have been active in other areas of Lisk, stuff I will talk about in future posts here.

Today, please let me talk about something I think is very important.  

Right now Oliver is operating 101 identical genesis servers to run the Lisk mainnet

https://explorer.lisk.io/delegateMonitor

This is a necessary evil while improved Lisk code is being written (version 0.4.0)  The 0.4.0 version hopefully will be stable enough after testing that Oliver will turn off the Genesis machines, forging rewards will start, and the Lisk mainnet will be start to be run by 101 community-elected DPoS (Delegated Proof of Stake) Active Delegates.

For now, hopeful delegates are practicing their node operating skills over on the Lisk testnet

https://testnet-explorer.lisk.io/delegateMonitor

This is an expensive way to practice.  It costs all these folks (including me) money out of their own pocket to run these testnet servers, which are generating "test Lisk forging rewards" with no real value.  

This is also a very frustrating way to practice.  The current Lisk code is very challenging to operate.  While the network endures, individual nodes must be laboriously resynchronized often with procedures that can be very time-consuming.

Many people have given up due to expense and frustration and are no longer maintaining their testnet nodes.  You can see them in the list above as having red dots and / or low productivity percentages beside their names.

SOME PEOPLE HAVE SHOWN THE DEDICATION (GENERALLY SPEAKING, HIGH PRODUCTIVITY PERCENTAGES BESIDE THEIR NAMES) TO CONTINUE RUNNING LISK TESTNET NODES WEEK AFTER WEEK.  

THESE PEOPLE ARE WORTHY OF YOUR VOTE TODAY.  

THESE PEOPLE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A CHOICE FOR DPoS ACTIVE DELEGATES TO RUN THE LISK MAINNET IN THE MONTHS AND YEARS TO COME.

DELEGATED PROOF OF STAKE (DPoS) FOR LISK ONLY WORKS IF YOU VOTE.  

HERE IS A LIST OF INDIVIDUALS WORTHY OF YOUR VOTE, AND WHY.

PLEASE GO TO THE MAINNET LISK ONLINE WALLET AT https://login.lisk.io/ AND CAST YOUR VOTE FOR YOUR CHOICE OF DPoS STANDBY DELEGATES TO EVENTUALLY REPLACE OLIVER'S GENESIS MACHINES.    

THANKS!

Yes, this week we will announce the release date. Oliver did big changes to Lisk in the past week and these changes need to be tested today/tomorrow. After we got the results we can announce the release date. The changes are necessary, our last stress test revealed a few inefficiencies in the Lisk core which need to be sort out before we launch.

Lisk is so popular right now, that we need to make the core as efficient as possible. If Crypti would have been so popular as Lisk is right now, the network couldn't have support the load. With our last updates we fixed many problems already, the next one will be a game changer.
