***Mini Update**** Price BumpThe Elephant in the room is the recent bump in the price. Out of nowhere we have a new Nr.1 Wallet with 180k SPR.
Quite a few people that decided to head for the exit when Mr.Spread went MIA probably ended up giving their coins away to Nr.1.
The coins have been there for the taking since Feb 14, so no grumbles from any corners, please.
Interestingly, the Nr.2 and Nr.3 wallets have also been very active.
The distribution has changed a little in under two weeks. The top 10 wallets went up from
24% to 30%.
* DevsCHAOSiTEC has announced he is joining the dev team.
For those that don't know him, he
played a huge part in making
Darkcoin successful during its early days, and he still helps out. It will be interesting to watch him get stuck into SpreadX11 mining code, and the servicenodes.
Gladimor has now
confirmed he wants to help the dev team.
gjhiggins is taking a step back due to other commitments, but will pitch in when he
can.Gerogem will hopefully be providing a meaty update next week on project and dev road map. But as is always the case, it will be ready when its ready. There is plenty to do in so many other areas.
* Project development membersStonehedge has now joined the team and is already making huge contributions in the background. Hopefully something rather special can be reported back on this in mid May.
A-Russo is busy building an android app for SPR. I'll let him update on that front when he is ready. All I know is that he had to buy a new souped-up desktop to cope with the java work
e1ghtSpace has produced a how-to-mine video for
YouTube to help anyone who wants to solo mine SPR.
Coins101 has retained a PR guy who has had crypto articles published. We should be able to get something in cointelegraph and possibly coindesk. It takes about two weeks from making contact to getting something printed. No guarantees the media will take a story, but at least we can get something written and sent to the right people - waiting for the new ANN and dev report on road map before we do anything.
I was a little busy last week contributing to the DASH
proposals to add decentralised MN voting before it was made public. I think the central concept of adding MN voting is
pretty good. Something SPR might want to consider at some point. No need to rush into discussions on this one until it has been voted through or not by the DASH community.
Scamalert Seems to have joined the community and is looking to
dust off his GPU. Nice to see we
passed his scam alert test.
defunctec believes he has
evidence that Mr.Spread is still actively developing because some of his known
wallets have been active recently. (Not overly confident about this; and given the steps we are taking to move the project forward I'm not that fussed - it would be good to have him back, but there are plans to move the project forward if he has done a
Satoshi ).
Other news* A couple of other projects have indicated a desire to work with SPR. When the dev team have the time to consider these possible options, I'm sure we will find out more about which other projects SPR could work with and why.
* The branding has been raised as needing a review at some point. No need to consider this in the near term, 3-6 months, IMO.
Have I missed anyone or anything?
Is there something you don't like, or think is wrong with the update?
Great update Coins101. As you say, lets hope we can announce something rather special in a few weeks time
