  • Zathras
    1. Soft launched OmniChest.info v6
    2. Working through various feedback raised for ‘Chest v6 (special thanks to dexx7 and Marv for the very detailed feedback, and to others for the rest), prioritising based on number of requests for certain items – top of list is currently pagination which is a WIP
    3. Working on deploying Patrick’s node.js code to an automated deployment so it can be scaled up
    4. Working on improvements to OmniCore – implementing DEx phase 1 in the GUI for Omni Core for our 0.0.10.1 release, attempting to meet two key feature requests:
      1. Bitcoin balances in balances tab
      2. DEx phase one interactivity in the GUI
    5. Code base updated to support balance based address handling for Bitcoin (as opposed to output based), working on various missing pieces (eg DEx phase 1 has no RPC calls to complete a trade and send payment, instead requiring use of coin control and manual payment tx construction).
    6. UI for DEx phase one WIP – teaser on progress so far http://i.imgur.com/ckccnFv.png
