hmm, just speculation, i have been active on the IOCoin slack and the thought just came to my mind that as far as i know the Devs haven't spoken of technical progress on the project in several days now. I think this is because the whole DIONS update is now complete and the only thing left to do is start the countdown timer and call a block. And im guessing they will do this at the fintech awards on the 27th (only 2 days away). Would be a cool thing. Nobody has denied that this could be the case and many are beleiving this will happen, t makes total sense. Could be a very exciting few days now! Feeling the suspense. This coin is about to take a proper moonshot now i think.
