The hardfork went well and Ellaism is still running on its original chain. Features are
- WASM (Web Assemly) support in addition to solidity for smart contracts
- Parity is the supporting full node at the moment
- Byzantium is enabling Ellaism to follow the cool Ethereum developments
Other cool stuff has happened as well:
- Mobile Wallets for android and IOS
- TipBot on discord server
- Kastle.pro likely to list Ella on their Exchange, when they go live (Ella won a voting there)
- Community Fund is growing visible in explorer.elaisim.org 0x01ff0FFd25B64dE2217744fd7d4dc4aA3cAbceE7
About to come:
- More Wallets and Ledger Nano S support
- a different network explorer
- pool.ellaism.eu mining to community fund (similar to pool.ellaism.org is mining to developer fund (1% mining fee goes 100% to fund)
and I likely missed topics
