its working as advertised, network is healthy, developer is alive
improvements to bitcoin are also improvements to viacoin and vice versa
stuff takes time
Exactly this. If Viacoin rebases on top of 0.13 it will get a who bunch of new features like BIPs 9,68,112,113,141,143,144, libsecp etc. I'm not saying it will be easy, or that I will do it for sure. I would certainly like help in reviewing such a rebase because it's quite extensive and risky.
Awesome.
So, it is a extensive task and risky.
You need serious help in testing in order to keep VIAblockchain stabile.
Developers have to be triggered to contribute in testing and using the VIA blockchain.
