https://www.ethnews.com/factom-receives-second-dhs-grant-for-blockchain-iot-project
ETHNews reached out to Factom to see how the project was progressing. Peter Kirby, Co-founder & CEO of Factom, Inc., said:
“Factom finished the first phase with DHS to demonstrate that devices can be secured with the blockchain. We've moved onto a second phase (with a new grant) that explores deeper device level identity and data integrity.”
The second grant was also from Homeland Security, but they have not disclosed the amount. Regarding how the blockchain could specifically help secure IoT security devices from hackers and spoofing, Peter Kirby continued:
“The blockchain lets us tackle two problems:
1) Can you definitively identify the device and have it sign the data it sends?
2) Can you prove the data wasn't modified later?
Once an identity is secured with the blockchain, a spoofing device won't be able to fake that identity. And once the data has been signed and time-stamped in the blockchain, a middleman can't edit or loop the data.”

Two facts:

Any chance of showing EC address instead of hex?
Mainly for egotistical reasons. Be nice to see my name in the Factom hall of fame.
This was simpler to do like that at first, I plan to convert to base 58 address later. I'm also thinking about a tag system where users could name addresses as they want.
What s up? Why this sudden price jump? It seems several alt have been facing this.
New update released.
https://github.com/FactomProject/distribution
Updated Wallet
Enterprise Wallet now launches as a standalone program. It no longer needs to be started from the command line. (Factomd, however still does though.)
Faster Download
This version of Factomd downloads the blockchain faster.
Faster Startup
This version also boots much faster than v0.4.0.1.

We re almost in February and this means Exodus wallet should include Factom very soon. What else can we expect soon?
Any speciality will be added when we on Exodus wallet? Anyone introduced the features of this wallet? thanks a lot.
Thanks for the info
Does someone have a real idee of the factom price in btc in the end of 2017.
I know we dont have crystalballs but a realistic view.

I don't believe in specific price-predictions, but what I expect is that what we've already seen in 2016 (some great partnerships) will continue and increase for 2017. With M2 Factom will be much more attractive and usable for companies, also more attractive for external Developer to build stuff on Factom - should be a safe prediction that the EC-demand will increase significantly. And if we think about Factoids it's likely that other exchanges will list it, hopefully some of the major ones.
I would be surprised if the price wouldn't rise significantly and I expect it to rise soon.
This is the chart in Dollar and it looks very promising:

Heard that it would be for march
Well Factom did have some delays but I confident beta testing will start in February. I have actually applied to be beta tester, we ll see how will this go.
I think it should be out in Feb as said by Exodus. But it may be delayed too. Looks like some problem with Poloniex Wallet. Was Enabled for some time and then Back to Maintenance Again. Hope All goes well.

Does Factom have a Slack? If so, how can I get an invite?
Yes: http://community.factomfoundation.com/
It's official & public, shouldn't be a problem to join.
