Lisk videos around the world; Crypto Zombie! United States crypto Youtuber "Crypto Zombie" released a new video titled "Are ICOs Dumping $ETH & Crashing The Markets? Hoskinson vs Vitalik | Facebook Rumors" and within it he features LISK. Speaking about the ICO of MADANA in a section of this particular video he explains LISK as a district within a country, sidechains as the streets within the district, and MADANA as a shop in one of these streets. I have taken the liberty of pinpointing the section of the video where he begins the LISK coverage here..........
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FJmoe8cBuE&t=610s Lisk Commander will interact with the network, mainchain/sidechain and dapps! Shusetsu Toda (
https://lisk.io/team/shusetsu-toda ), Fullstack Developer at Lightcurve which is working on the Lisk project, has released a new blog post on the release of Lisk Commander 1.0.0. here.......
https://blog.lisk.io/lisk-commander-1-0-0-release-37e72b9c5dad . The following passage from Shusetsu's blog is really exciting...... "from Lisk Commander 2.0 onwards, we will integrate more features for developers and blockchain creators as a first entry point into the Lisk ecosystem. Together with Lisk Elements and the SDK, Lisk Commander will evolve to become a tool that can be used to create, maintain and interact with the network as well as the mainchain/sidechain and dapps. Developers and node maintainers will be able to create the template of the sidechain, start and manage the node as well as much more".
Lisk Core 1.0 has smooth ride on the public Testnet so far! As you probably all know the important step of migration from Lisk Core 1.0.0-rc.1 to 1.0.0-rc.2 on Testnet network has occurred. The migration went smoothly and successfully. I tracked what some of the community members involved in the testnet have been saying, and while a lot of it is very technical and far beyond my understanding, I can report that that there have been no major hiccups so far. What follows are a selection of comments from two posters regarding this...... u/TheRealPhoenix1969 said, "haha exactly, I haven't even seen one node of mine hiccup yet; looks so solid.* He continued by urging on with, "testnet solid A* lets get that blockheight 🍒 ." Then jokingly he said, "I'm currently chanting in the mirror by candle-light". u/Lemiiii put a lot of minds at ease when he said, "I can confirm. Very smooth ride so far ✌️ ". It looks like HQ have a solid product on their hands.
Lisk Commander 1.0.0. launch covered in two new press pieces!CryptoNinjas covered Lisk Commander 1.0.0. in the straightforwardly titled article, "Lisk releases version 1.0.0 of command line interface tool". That can be read here.......
https://www.cryptoninjas.net/2018/08/13/lisk-releases-version-1-0-0-of-command-line-interface-tool/ . A regular documenter of Lisk's progress, ambcrypto.com, was the other publication giving coverage to the Lisk Commander 1.0.0. launch, again with the direct title of "Lisk [LSK] announces its command line interface tool release, Lisk Commander 1.0.0". Three redditors got shout outs in this piece while being quoted, namely u/Mmcryto2018 , u/Delegate_endro , and u/AtomTanNZ. You can check out that article here......

Lisk Core 1.0.0 Mainnet release block height is announced!The migration of Lisk Core 1.0 to Mainnet will happen when we reach block height 6,901,027". Now HQ expects this block height to arrive on Wednesday, August 29, no sooner than 11:00 AM CEST. Following this date, Lisk Mainnet nodes must be upgraded to Lisk Core 1.0, leaving behind the old version, Lisk Core 0.9.16. It seems to be all coming together folks, and I think Max Kordek said this best on twitter when he posted "Lisk Core 1.0.0 ✅, Lisk Commander 1.0.0 ✅, Lisk Elements 1.0.0 ✅, Lisk Explorer 2.1.4 ✅, Lisk Nano 2.0.0 ✅, Lisk Hub 1.0.0 ✅ ; all Lisk products are ready for our biggest milestone yet!".
