Am I the only one who have been anticipating whether or not the Verge team would come through with WraithProtocol before NYE?
I lost faith myself an hour before the latest release, and sold my stake.

Do you guys think it will revolutionize the business when/if it lands?

Watching
So many people are going crazy - who really cares if it comes through before end of tonight? - if it is what everyone is expecting it will be a good way for crypto to go, public ledgers are cool, but decentralizing money is sooooo cool.

Will help to revolutionize privacy coins.

Send me a message if you need me to respond to a post, or just send me some  $ADA in an amount that will get my attention = addr1qx7g7vzjtk9mcljxjy0vnewaljk33m67d227d95rsak8mmjdq5erwjygc05l6vftwdzy9qd3t4 9spl5kw5k6684gfawqw9r87w

Watching. It’s the best drama. Wraith is now released. The developers seem to have worked frantically to release before midnight, and they just missed the deadline. But also ppl in new years eve parties don’t care and won’t see this great news until tomorrow sometime.

It is true. However, I am a bit sceptical about the contradictions in their statements.
I sold my 48k at 1650 sat and bought back 10k at 1300 sat.

I'm no expert but I did a lot of reading on verge lately , fact is that there is a lot of FUD going on with verge,(looks like targeted FUD) yes they did miss the deadline by few hours , yes they still have some bugs to fix, but :
1) Wraith is working
2) lead dev and others are working non-stop
3) check out interviews with the lead dev Sunerok , he knows his stuff

Some people were claiming that wraith is broken as a privacy feature and that the IP's of all the wallets are freely available, although I can't verify that tbh.

I hope they do not rush a good thing.  VERGE also got some bad publicity with this article: https://news.bitcoin.com/privacy-coin-verge-allegedly-leaking-users-ip-addresses/

My recommendation is to buy as the cost is going down - I have some faith in a good rebound.
