Swipp is steaming forward!

Hello again, fellow Swippians! We want to tell you about some of the changes and new developments to the Swipp currency that have been happening during the last two months.

Recent listing on external resources
The currency has been listed on some external resource sites, inlcuding CoinGecko (https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/swipp) and Neironix (https://neironix.io/es/cryptocurrency/swipp). CoinGecko is a competitor to CoinMarketCap, but features support for more cryptocurrencies and exchanges.


           

Some small updates to the explorer
In order to accommodate our recent CoinGecko listing, we extended the API of our Iquidus fork (http://explorer.swippcoin.com), implementing the ability to fetch the money supply with separators included (http://explorer.swippcoin.com/ext/getmoneysupply?separator=,). We also fixed a bug which caused the percentage summary on the rich list page to be incorrectly displayed.

Wallet development
At the time of writing, the newest stable wallet version (2.1.5) is now responsible for 77% of all connections, which means the community is keeping up very well with our updates. During the last few weeks, we have started committing many fixes and changes related to the adaptive network. Twiddler has also updated all the code related to the spork system, which we will use when we enable the new features on the network, such as the adpative geoip calculations.

We plan on releasing version (2.2.0) of the wallet soon, which will include the new spork system, the adaptive masternode network and various other improvements. This version will create a new network and a new protocol version that will throw out all previous wallets connecting to the network. We will provide the exact block height for this update together with the new wallet release.

Muntster
Muntster has seen some recent changes and Chaozer informs us that the sites feature-set has also been expanded. Please visit the updated promotional site (http://www.muntster.com) for a complete list of planned features with the initial release of the site. Chaozer and would also like to thank all the beta testers that have been helping with the testing of the site. Thanks to you, many issues have been identified and dealt with.


Play portal
While not currently on the roadmap, we have started working on a new play portal where you will be able to play and bet Swipp. With the first release, we plan to release a Video Poker clone where players will be able to bet and win Swipp. This portal will also include an API which will expose some internal statistics of the site and allow access to the backend of the play portal. We want to allow external developers to publish their own games on the portal. The Swipp project will take a small comission, leaving the majority of the revenue to the game developer.

We have already published part of the backend code to our GitHub project page (https://github.com/teamswipp/cardtastic). While it's only supporting the poker rule set at the moment, the cardtastic library will be expanded to support many different card games and will be exposed for external use via an API.

Website
Website has been updated with a revised roadmap and links to the recently added resources.

Azenix/Aspectcoin swap
Some time ago, Chaozer initiated a swap initiative to allow the Azenix/Aspectcoin community to swap their coins to Swipp. This initiative allows us to grow the Swipp community and generate some more interest for the project. To read about Azenix/Aspectcoin, please refer to the official BitcoinTalk thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2552998.0). The swap will be financed with a community bounty. If we successfully collect the Swipp needed for the swap, we intend to swap Azenix/Aspectcoin at a 1:10 ratio. If we collect less than the needed amount we will either raise the swap ratio or abort the swap and return the donations received.

The last date to report interest for the swap is 2018-10-05 23:59 GMT. Please join our discord (https://discord.gg/ZHVVjdZ) for the latest information concerning the swap.

Until next time! We will post a new update as soon as the next wallet is ready for release!

Yours, team swipp
