Crown update 14.3.2017We would like to post a little update so the community knows what is currently going on.
The dev team is has currently started to work on slimming the Crown code and make Trons become the most important aspect of the Crown project as was outlined in the papers. This work is led by urban_idler, chaositec and infernoman. In Dash (as it is now) the capacity of masternodes is really there to mix coins for darksend. The Crown Platform looks at the compute capacity available on the trons as the "server layer" of a network. So the idea would ultimately be to be able to do a lot of what one would do with a server, but to be able to do this with what is currently around 400 GB+ of RAM on trons and probably around roughly 8 TB of storage... the trons provide compute capacity to the network.
This compute capacity is currently "paid for" by block rewards -- but one can imagine using it to offer services which users would pay for and having CRW integrated as the payment method. The Trons themselves could add capacity to the network if there were demand for it. So the long term idea is for the Trons to be a sort of "elastic" server layer running open source apps or securing accounts/login and payment for proprietary apps running off network... as well as being the server's for CRW blockchain and providing transaction confirmation services to the blockchain. A series of detailed papers on our architecture will be released in the coming weeks.
Crown Hub Progress is being made on a complex information site for Tron operators, where it will be possible to check Tron payments, follow and comment Tron voting proposals as well as see the actual profitability of Trons among other functions. This work is being done by luccd88 and his partners.
Tron Monitoring AppOur app dev calnaughtonjnr is finishing with the enhanced V2 version of the mobile Throne monitor for Android and iOS.
The Community is GrowingWe have a new community / team member who will be spreading the word on Crown in South East Asia - specifically Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and Burma.
The Dev team together with bigmo is working to add Crown to the Trezor device.
We are excited to see the community grow substantially after our Bittrex listing and are confident we are making important steps toward a larger scale adoption of Crown.
In other recent news:Crown was added to the Blockfolio Android/iOS app.
