i hope that thriftyminnow will update his guide soon.

I think the coingecko dev rating is actually based on some metrics about commits, issues, etc. from GitHub. At least that's what it was a few years ago.

It calculated that stoffu and smooth are more capable than the other cryptonote coins' development teams hehehe. Which is true, however.

@stoffu. Thank you!

good, stay homogeneous.
adoption is a slow phenomenon, and it is important to be present at this time.
please realize that banks are less and less convenient, and have become a pure world of producing commissions from every client.

any news of lespristy project ?

Down quite a lot since its All-time High. The project is also in a new place as well. Since the last tagged release of Aeon v0.12.9.0 there have been 229 commits to 539 changed files with 13,653 additions and 4,795 deletions to create the v0.13.0.0 release. So many community additions. The price was only $9 because of hype and overall market enthusiasm towards crypto in general. Aeon is 10 times was it was in January 2018. Yes, many people left the community that could have done for Aeon what they did for their own projects and make it a true top 50 coin. Instead, there are now 20+ projects that have not really become top 50 coins. So many people struggling to do the same thing. We shall see what happens in the coming months. Not worrying on constantly forking to make small miners happy is a big step forward to the big boys land of crypto. Time to focus on the good stuff that adds great value to any project.

Not exaclty sure how this rating is calculated, but Aeon is #2 among cryptonote coins sorted by "Developer" rating.

AEON was one of the coins that was quite good in its time where the price increase was quite high and many investors were lucky, if this platform will be upgraded hopefully it can make EAON much better.

Additional v0.13.0 info ANN: https://medium.com/@AEON_Community/aeon-v0-13-0-network-upgrade-5643b8c3f3be

Aletheia (0.13.0.0)

This mandatory release improves the long term stability, sustainability, decentralization, and performance of the blockchain by removing the ASIC-resistant PoW (which requires frequent forking in an arms race with ASIC-developers) and replacing it with the much faster-to-verify and ASIC-friendly (currently FPGA-friendly) Keccak-based KangarooTwelve (K12) algorithm. The use of K12 for PoW was reviewed and approved by the Keccak-team, developers of Keccak/SHA3.

It also contains numerous other improvements for reduced transaction size, improved fungibility, safer long-term blocksize growth, and dozens of performance and reliability patches.

The mainnet fork date is scheduled on October 25 (height 1146200)

Changes include:
KangarooTwelve (K12) Keccak variant PoW for FPGA- and eventually ASIC-friendly protocol stability
Borromean signatures for smaller transactions
Tighter big bang protection preventing exponential blockchain growth
Consensus lock time aligned with reference wallet preventing alternate wallets from damaging fungibility
Fixed ring size at 3 for improved fungibility
Gamma-distribution selection on non-RCT outputs for better ring member ambiguity
Improved non-RCT tx output selection for reduced transaction linkages
Upstream reliability and performance improvements
AEON community-contributed improvements

Thanks to stoffu for the majority of the AEON-specific work and additional thanks to all of the AEON community and upstream contributors

Hey, thanks for the French translations. They are integrated into the website now.

Yes, we started a community repository here: https://aeoncommunity.github.io/

Github link here: https://github.com/AEONCommunity

Also, check out medium blogs here: https://medium.com/@AEON_Community  (many links to things "aeon" related)

I have been lacking on medium blogs for a while since there has been little to add and I have been very busy this summer. I was trying to get one this weekend but "fall cleaning" took over my weekend.

No sure that is fully legal in all countries to trade on a platform of a non-registered society.

@smooth. Organizing a small bug bounty using the community funds might be suitable. It might receive interest not only from the Aeon community because there is a financial interest to do it.

It might also be good as a way to promote Aeon and the winning bounty hunters might also become one of us hehehe.
