Hello,

I have been an ICO investor into your project. For 2 ETH I received 74 000 CARD. it states
there that I have 74k CARD on this address. Now when I try to access MEW and send my CARD
to an exchange to trade with it I always get this: under custom tokens it says: 
Cardstack Token   74000000000000000000000
Which is clearly not correct and I can not send any amount, it displays some sort of error. What
can i do in order to be able to send my CARD safely and normally? Did something happen with CARD in the meantime from ICO and my tokens already got swapped for mainnet and are useless?
I just never encountered these problems with erc20.


When sending with MEW, please make sure to add CARD as a custom token with this contract address 0x954b890704693af242613edef1b603825afcd708 and decimals 18.
It's possible you were trying to send the old CARD tokens.

So this will be something like Github and GooglePlay together? But why do you think people should move to your Githereum? And when is the launch planned?

Not exactly, and people should move to Githereum because it will power everything they're used to with GitHub BUT it will be fully decentralised, as in, code isn't stored in GitHub's centralised servers, but on a decentralised storage

A lot is happening here at Cardstack! Githereum is live on testnet and Card Schema V2 is already in the works. This is an update on the progress we’ve made recently and our plans for the coming weeks: https://medium.com/cardstack/whats-new-at-cardstack-f48917a4a73e

What is this Githereum? Something like Github but for Daaps? Why people should use this if everyone use Github nowdays (even for blockchain development code and daaps)  Huh

Hi there, you have more information regarding Githereum here from the article and a pretty good synopsis of the positives of this implementation:

Githereum is an implementation of Git on Ethereum. In a nutshell: Various versions of a card (both code and data) are saved in Git repositories. The latest state of each card is recorded on the Ethereum blockchain. This way, users can retrieve the latest state of the card from the blockchain or go back to a specific recorded version that they would like to restore.
Use cases for this combination of Git and Ethereum are manifold. Githereum could be used to create a Dropbox-like file and folder sharing system based on the public-key infrastructure of Ethereum. It could be used to build decentralized registries that allow multiple parties to write entries, while the smart contract controls the evolution to an agreed global state. Another example is a public catalog that could form the basis of the Card Catalog and work like an app store, allowing users to submit, download, and remix cards.

While this is promising, the newsletter doesn't address the most pressing concerns: marketing, partnership, community, and ecosystem growth. You don't have to spell out whom you're in talks with or even where, but just broadstroke overviews (bullet points) will go a long way in showing momentum. Community is everything: https://twitter.com/lrettig/status/1183568054351028225

Thank you for the suggestion, the report is supposed to be a round up of development over the last period, any partnerships etc, that are established will of course be announced! Development is of course the most important part of ecosystem growth that can be analysed before main launch!

Ah yes, mainnet launch. Any ETA on when that's going to come out? Still on track for this quarter?
Also, think I recall the team mentioning that Cardstack will always be on Ethereum blockchain. Am I correct? No plans for other blockchains, even those that support EVM?

Power users

Finally, power users use the tools provided by the lower layers to create full-stack Web applications.

And all they do is use the interface. They don’t have to do any coding. The Four Edges allow them to drag a card from a library, open it, look at different editing options, and configure it to their liking with a few clicks. They don't need to do anything beyond Web-based administration. That's the only tool they need to create research report templates, newsletters, conference programs, tickets, and invitations, to name a few examples. Power users just use the templates that Web developers put out there to create their own version of a reality.

Web developers

Web developers theme the common cards built by front-end engineers and turn them into template cards.

Yet, when building a theme, they don't have to deal with the back-end; the common card already encapsulates all the data integration and blockchainy stuff. All the Web developers have to do is remap the fields, add some fields and texture, and call it a template.

The only skill set needed is HTML, CSS, and maybe a little bit of Ember, to create some logic around a card—so it shows a particular event, icon, or payment status. Without needing to know anything underneath, Web developers can create new mini-applications, including cards that contain other cards. And once a template is created, it can be published to the Card Catalog.

Front-end engineers

By creating common cards, front-end engineers put front-ends on top of our back-ends. Take an event card, for example. Anyone who wants to build an event catalog can start with the basic event card. Not only does it have all the schema.org language already defined; it also comes with an editing form, because the card is a mini-application. These common cards have built-in dropdowns and design systems, to guarantee a great standard experience for customizing cards.

We use common cards as a starting point to build this decentralized ecosystem, to allow back-end providers, integrations, or even new blockchains (like a calendar or event blockchain) to get into the user experience of the system.

Back-end engineers

Once we have the environment, we can start thinking about the type of integration (adapter to back-end systems / data sources) we need. Back-end engineers are people who know how to use NodeJS and the extension we've added through the Cardstack Hub, and who know how to interact with REST APIs and databases. They can build plugins to blockchains, Stripe, GitHub, Gitchain, etc.

Plugins are encapsulated as integration cards. They are configurations like a printer driver—you install it and set up your credential. When something is created, we can use that integration card and the corresponding API and syndicate that data to a cloud or, in some cases, to the blockchain.

The Product Team

The SDK and APIs provided by the framework team are used by the product team to create experiences—by building environments.

Here’s an analogy: There's a home screen, volume control, and camera on your iPhone, which a developer of an iOS app doesn't have to build from scratch every time, since those are standard environments that already exist. That's what the product team at Cardstack is working on; and we want to grow this team to 100+ people. There are many new things coming (workflows, spaces, libraries, etc.), all of which will be standard. Every single card that is built using the Card SDK benefits from these sharing or zooming controls. Product developers are the ones who build these standard experiences for mobile or desktop, so they’re all part of the product.

Since the Cardstack Framework is built on top of Ember, this layer requires a deeper understanding of the Ember ecosystem.

The Framework Team

At the bottom of the pyramid of card makers is the framework—people who write the software. At the moment, this is largely the Cardstack team who is building the Card SDK.

The Card SDK controls what a card can and cannot do. It is a front-end / back-end framework that runs on the Cardstack Hub, a decentralized application server. The same card can run on many hubs / servers and be hosted on different devices—whether that's on a PC or in a cloud.
 
The framework team builds the templating UI, tool kits, and server runtime. The Team wants to tap into existing open-source tools as much as possible, so as to enable people who know these tools to be productive right away. Therefore, being a part of the Cardstack framework team means learning the Team's version of tools like Ember Core, NodeJS, Postgres, and Docker.

Introducing the Card Makers

Users, developers, engineers, back-end, front-end, with or without framework-level experience—whichever category you fall into, you can play an important role in the Cardstack Ecosystem! By utilizing your individual skills, you can actively contribute to the making of cards, thus to the Card Catalog. The inverse pyramid of card makers tells you how that works. In the next few days, we will introduce each type of card maker, with the corresponding skill sets that are needed in each layer of this pyramid.

true, there are articles that contain the 2018-2019 roadmap, but only to Q3,
then what about this upcoming Q4? and in the following year?

Once there an update, I'm sure everyone will be able to see it, don't forget to keep an eye out for news!
