Hi dev,any update for us? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Our anon transactions are being worked on. Expect a whitepaper soon. Opalcoin is commited to stable working releases, and we refuse to release something that is not completely functional. With anonymous transactions, this is of absolute importance. While the code is done, we are testing it to the limit, and having the function reviewed by security professionals to ensure that our solution is the best it can be. s̴̡͘͞҉̻͈̥̬̹͖͔̻̥͇̪͖ͅt̴̻͓̱̙̠͚͡ͅe̬̼̪̯̮̪̯͓̕ͅa̢̠͔̦̻̜̪͓̬̞̕ļ̨̨̹͙̱̯͉̬͎͔͕̯̫̪̪͕͕̪t̥͓̪̝͍͙͖̮͔͢͞h̨͎̫͎̲̞̘͘ ̶̛̤̖̠̱́

Here's a thought, What if $Opal could actually be traded for "Real" Opal's?Just a thought, wondering what the community thinks. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FXin2kgZ8VUU%2Fhqdefault.jpg&t=665&c=-qN0U4_t59dlSQ)

its hard to know how it could work, none of the coins that have been pegged to real life items have worked. but it could work if we try to contact opal vendors

I was thinking could possible just get some opals and make a market place were you could trade your opal for them. I think the hardest part is finding a vendor to get on board. Anyone know of an Opal vendor they could talk to in person.. best way to approach a vendor is face to face.

An opal marketplace would probably be achievable - my only concern really would be demand. How many people that are into cryptocurrencies will also be interested in buying opals?
I like the idea of possibly backing the currency up with real opals though. I imagine they have a fairly stable value.

Yeah It might not be a main focus, just something people can use opal for if you'd like, because people always seem to ask "what can I use this for other than trading?" (even though they only ever use crypto for trading it seems). Might be handy when the holidays come round. "Look Mom I got you some precious Opals" ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Perhaps just a limited supply market that is only open for a short window??

To be honest we have actually already started exploring this option. One of the team lives quite near to some actual Opal mines so he is looking into the feasibility of this.

Any update today? Everything seems to be working - we're doing final testing now with some larger hashrates to make sure everything holds up as it should - and all being well we should be good to go very soon ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
