Wait for Q2, when they release the full platform

[LordViggo]

Am I the only one worried here? I know everything is in red but this is ridiculous. Any news of when they will release the platform? I hope they start working with Titanium and some marketing starts happening

Community Update — January 26, 2018
Building our presence in the local tech community.



BlockCAT is Growing
This week we added another cat to the team. An exceptional front-end developer, whose background is in large scale, reliable web application infrastructure in an agile/adaptive environment. With the upcoming release of our core platform, he’ll be primarily focused on coding our visual interface and connecting the back-end infrastructure with the actual UI that users see and interact with. He officially starts on February 19th, so we’ll be sure to give him a proper introduction in the community once he’s settled in.

Accelerating BlockCAT
The first year of operations are absolutely crucial to the success of a business, so to ensure our continued forward trajectory, we’ve been working closely with a local tech accelerator to provide us with the insight and resources needed to help us scale and avoid costly mistakes.

All coins have gone up tremendously last year. It is normal to have a correction in price. Wait until the bearish market sentiment is over.

Good time to start accumulating more, seems like a mighty nice sale right now across the entire board.  BlockCat is definetely on my radar looking to take a position really soon, seems like a good project with a good team!

Community Update — February 9, 2018

While this has been a fairly dramatic week in the crypto world, our team has been all-hands-on-deck preparing for the launch of our first complete smart contract.

We recently designed a smart contract that we believe solves a very real problem crypto users experience today. We’re not ready to announce what it is, or how it works, because to our knowledge, there is no other service that solves this problem. Being first to market is very important in this situation, and we’re very close to release.


Product Development
Here’s our notes directly from the Dev team.

Dev Notes
The contract we alluded to last week is all-but-ready. While we have deployed it to the blockchain, tested the appropriate functionality and built out a good user experience, we’re looking forward to do a deep-dive security review and polish up all the edges.
This project has included considerable reusable UX work for future contract development — functionality like representing Ethereum addresses with their blockies.
Work for producing automated unit and integration tests for the whole flow, from UX to the smart contracts, has been started and the first steps of integrating React-driven UIs with Web3-driven smart contracts have been done.

Transaction Survey Results
Last week we released a Crypto Transaction Survey which gathered a huge amount of attention from our community. We received a vast number of responses, which gave us a fascinating insight into when/how users transact their cryptocurrency.

Here are some survey insights:
74% of users own the private key to their wallet (eg: MEW, Ledger)
94% worry about making a mistake when sending crypto.
11% have actually sent their crypto to the wrong address (ouch!)
These statistics paint a very telling picture.
Based on the answers provided, this would indicate that 1 in 10 people have sent crypto to the wrong address. With transaction values ranging from $1,000 (8% of respondents) all the way to $50,000 (3% of respondents), it’s clear just how potentially devastating this could be for the crypto community.

Here are a few firsthand accounts of what happens in this scenario:

“Sent 300 dollars to an address with 1 different digit on accident.”
“The address auto filled and I thought I pasted the address, was careless and didn’t check… so it’s gone.”
“Gave ICO wrong address, so they sent it to wrong wallet.”
This is a fairly critical pain point that, if solved, could have a tremendous impact on the industry by instilling a higher level of trust for the accuracy and frequency of future crypto transactions.


Continuing Education

In the interest of spreading awareness and educating others on what blockchain technology can do, our legal guru David Kemp presented to a community of lawyers this week about the various legal issues surrounding crypto, token sales and smart contracts.

The key takeaway was that despite the general lack of knowledge of how blockchain works from a technical level, there is no doubt of the potential applications and the vast impact it will have on traditional industries.

Unfortunately, it’s difficult for professionals in these industries to gain the education and training required to take advantage of this technology, despite the willingness to learn. We’re looking forward to the day that crypto becomes even more more accessible in a safe and functional way.
