Folks:
1) There's still a surprising amount of Incent left in our ICO area. Based on Waves, it's quite possible that some of this won't be claimed for months or ever. Perhaps it's been forgotten about or details lost. Who knows? Bottom line, if you haven't claimed your Incent yet, please do so! It's very easy to get started with the Waves lite client, no blockchain download required and very good UI.
2) Updates. Major updates will be monthly, like the one issued by Rob towards the end of January. That was pretty comprehensive and at this point, with dev work being the over-riding priority, there's not much to add on a day-to-day basis. Pete it doing a great job getting the MVP ready, we have hired another dev in UK, and basically it's all going pretty well. It's tight for Q1 rollout but right now we're on track. Aside from saying 'Pete wrote 193 lines of code today', there's not much more to say at this stage.
3) Exchanges. We're actively seeking listing because this is a critical part of our product. Incent needs the ability to buy tokens in more or less real-time. Aside from Tidex we are talking to another couple of exchanges. As soon as we get confirmation on those, we'll let you know, but you'll appreciate they have their own dev overhead and timelines for integrating new tokens.
4) Slack. If you have any urgent questions, particularly about claiming your Incent, Slack is the best place to ask them as we can be more responsive there.
That's all for now!
Question about waves lite wallet. Does it have 2FA? If not, I intend to keep Incent with you until some proper exchange lists it and I hope this is fine. BTW, you also promised (Incent team) that your ICO site will have 2FA available before tokens are ready for distribution and this isn't the case. I hope this is an exception as far as keeping your promises and realizing plans.
Bittrex used to have an option to list coins for 2 BTC fee. Have Incent team tried to use this option? That way you would get Incent on the second most important exchange and show your determination.
Please also confirm Waves has everything ready for Incent to operate like envisioned, when you will complete your part of the development for Incent.
Hey FogClearer, thanks for your questions.
1) The Litewallet does not yet have 2FA. Nevertheless, I would think it's much more secure than an exchange and would advise you to withdraw from the ICO area.
2) You're right, it doesn't. I'll check about this but there may be a good reason for it. If not, apologies in advance and thanks for keeping us on our toes. That's the sort of thing we're keen to get absolutely right, both with the tech and the community.
3) We have been in touch with Bittrex (as well as Poloniex). No go at the moment, though of course we'll keep trying. We're in contact with other exchanges, including one that has significantly higher volume that Bittrex, and will keep people updated as soon as we know more.
4) Ultimately it would be good to have Waves' DEX operational, and we'll be using that once it's up and running. But so long as we have at least one regular exchange, we can function ok and can get the MVP out there. We're still on track for Q1 rollout to the first real-world merchants, and there may also be interest from another ICO in the near future - again, more details as soon as we have them.
