Glad you like it but this is not "just news". This shows the vector of XDN evolution this year. We always deliver what we promise, you can check the whole XDN history. PoA is an extremely hard and is the only thing promised and not delivered yet, in the same time we delivered the merged mining and solved the network security issues.
I think you will be satisfied with the Announcement 3 if you are thinking only about the XDN price.
