Weekly announcement!Wallets โ Version 12.2.3a
The wallet version was released a week ago. The core network updated smoothly although it has taken some time to get all other nodes up to date and agreeing on consensus from the seed nodes. Now that we have majority adoption of V12.2.3a on the network, we will start the stabilize further.
I you havenโt already updated, please do so. Details on how to update are here:
https://github.com/absolute-community/absolute/wiki/Masternode-Update-Guide-For-V0.12.2.3aWe have currently testing wallets on Ubuntu 17.10 and 18.04, we will produce precompiled binaries and QT wallets for these soon.
Development will now stop on this code base and we will continue to develop the new mainnet, which release date will be within the next few months.
Sentinel
Please update to V1.2 if you havenโt done so already. Your Masternode will not go enabled with this version installed and configured correctly.
Currently the are 881 V12.2.3a Masternodes online at the time of me writing this announcement. Out of these 128 are having configuration issues, mainly with Sentinel.
We will produce a list for you to check which Masternodes need attention. We are pulling this information for our new explorer which I will talk about in a moment.
ABS BOT
We are increasing the bots functionality, it will soon be able to tell you if Sentinel is installed correctly and on what version. It will also be able to output all nodes on the network that are on old versions in one go, which means you can check that your nodes are all ok in one go.
Governance
Now that Sentinel has been updated by the majority, Governance will come online next week. We will be producing budget plans for the next 4 superblocks (1 Months), this will allow us to start a number of campaigns, marketing and help pay for ongoing costs that are require for the coin to operate.
Mining Pool
We still wish to setup a mining pool for Absolute, this is still ongoing but should be launched once this release has been fully adopted.
Language translations
We are looking to create language translations for all areas of the Wiki:
https://github.com/absolute-community/absolute/wiki/We currently have Spanish in development, but need other members to help with the rest. If you are interested, please contact @Development. We can get you added in to Governance rewards for you help.
Explorer
We have been developing a new explorer, itโs not finished yet but we are looking to lunch it within the next few weeks. Its explorer will be housed within the new Absolute Portal which will launch at the same time. Here is a teaser of the layout ( which is still in development):
Lots more to follow soon, hope @everyone has a great weekend
