8 days left until the end of June. Any problems with the new client or can we still expect it released to testing before July 1st?
No problems.. progress is slow but steady.
I've had some IRL troubles of late and that has pushed me back quite a bit.
I'm addressing multiple fundamental problems with Bitcoin, with the primary ones being storage/download speed and verification speed(If you've noticed of late, the bitcoin blockchain is huge and takes a very long time to download/verify). I've solved all these problems in the new GLD client. However the implementations themselves are taking a long time. They are taking a long time because I'm adamant on doing this properly.
When the initial estimate of the client release being in May was given(an estimation that was first released by Greg but not confirmed by me until afterwards), I was living in a different home. In between April and May I had to move homes and that took a lot of time and there are still a lot of things to take care of IRL.
I will do what I can to speed things up.. however as towards when the client will be ready for beta testing. I do not know for certain. It could be 5 days from now, it could be a month from now. Too many variables to count.
Here is an updated teaser.. deduce what you will
