Cardano (ADA): A New Cryptocurrency and More

[naska21]

I guess IOHK must have already removed these pools' entry of Daedalus, right?

They didn't remove them for testnet, arguably  because want to test the stress resilience of Ouroboros   protocol.

The CEO of IOHK, the company behind Cardano, says his team is working on multiple behind-the-scenes projects focusing on new areas, possibly including proof-of-work, the Internet of Things and privacy.

I hope IOHK releases some nice updates for the Shelley testnet; there seem to be a hell lot of issues right now.

I don't think that it's related to Cardano; Charles is the owner of IOHK and has complete freedom to work on/for the projects beyond Cardano, and these PoW/IoT/Privacy projects sound like they don't belong to the Cardano ecosystem.

I've been trying to create a Stakepool for the last few days, and close to success. However, there's going to be one unique thing with my pool: it'll be hosted right on my android phone!

So far so good!

Most of developers involved into testnet are back from holidays and addresses relevant  issues. Charles promises new patches in a couple of weeks.

we moonin' or what?

is it because BTC is going up in the last few days? or its high time that we go up also?
to add the fact that they are releasing some updates for cardano lately. more news, more development, btc rising, and so is ada rising!

Till May there is chance for Bitcoin to increase its price because after May we are very close Bitcoin halving, meanwhile if Cardano manages to release their active developments and it will surely help the ADA coin to increase its price again. Now the market is in upward movement there is a chance to increase ADA coin prices again.

It seems that because of the effect of bitcoin rising then everything also goes up including cardano, if this can last until mid-2020 I think cardano will be back as it used to be and can make up to tens of millions of dollars in volume a day.

I am confused here, whether the team has released the live version for ADA staking or still they are in testing phase only? Still, they are rectifying the bugs in the Incentivized test net only, if they don't find any errors during this Incentivized test net they will release the live version right?

If you read above the given article than it showing clearly that is still in Testnet phase so it is normal to fix the bugs which appears during this phase. Once they will get satisfied than they will head towards the mainnet which will be more smoother.

The live version will come when the Incentivized-test-net staking is over. And u should not bother yourself about absence of work to fix the bugs during testing phase. There is still plenty of relevant pieces as Oroborous protocol in  Cardano is really complicated.
