When devs promised to launch custom blockchains initially, in September?
Soon we will launch part of custom blockchains functional i think.
All takes time, we collected 750 BTC, but we wan't to spend it in one year, we have long term project and we have budget.
Last weeks we was looking for developers, R&D center, designers, had meeting in Moscow.
About Windows client, i already sent it to test in our IRC.
Guys tested it.
It might be a good move to incentivize testing, as in you post wallet that must be tested and users do it then report in-depth reports. You pay them some money afterwards. If
you want quality testing, you will have to pay for it. Not paying any money and then dealing with people who run into problems and can't explain in detail what happened and how
to reproduce the bug is bad move, even big companies realised that so now many of them are paying money to professional (freelance) bug hunters.
Almost all respectable applications in cryptoland went through paid bug hunting at least once - Bitcoin, Armory, Blockchain.info, Dice (gambling) websites, few online wallets, etc.
We have a full time lead tester we hired (Sebastian) as well as a part time almost full time tester (Samsmith16) who is also working on it. Both are now part of our dev team and have a salary. We looked into some crowd sourced platforms other coins used but their devs said it was too hit or miss and costly.
Usual way to do it properly is to just set prices for certain bug levels (minor, major, critical) and open a thread at forum. Also list known bugs and then just pay to everyone who
reported some new issue, based on quantity and quality of provided feedback and bug level. There is no need to pay too much, many people gonna test it for as little as 0.001 BTC
for minor issue and up to 0.1 BTC for great report on critical issue (repeatable bug that completely breaks Crypti or even OS).
