I can't wait to try out the platform. I hope they will have MVP or beta for their exchange platform.

On the roadmap it says beta is going to be in December, probably after ICO ends. It's going to be an open beta iirc.
Just curious, so what's the difference between an open beta and alpha release? It sometimes confuses me with the different terminologies.

I think the beta release was the final platform already.


I have the same concern, but it was cleared already. We just have a different understanding of beta. Smiley
The Alpha and Beta release is not the same. Let me try explain the difference.

The Alpha release is the very first version of the platform that is already working but with minimal features installed yet. For the initial phase, They are to be released (privately) for use to be tested by their internal software testers which are people that were a part or from the core team.

The Beta release will be the next phase of the platform were all the basic features are installed. This version is subjected to be released in the public for beta testers which are actual people from the public who signed up to participate in the beta testing process.

I hope this helps!

Thank you for pointing that out mate. So the one they're going to release in December will be the Beta release already. And it's supposed to be available in the public for those who signed up to participate as beta testers. I guess they have already done the Alpha stage of the platform since there is no point in broadcasting the release because it will only be used and evaluated internally by people from the production team. Is there somewhere we can sign-up to for those who want to participate in the Beta-testing process? I wish to signup too!

thanks for sharing! That makes sense. So they are really right on schedule on their roadmap. Beta Version of the platform is going to be released by December. I hope they would be able to provide more info on how we can participate in the Beta testing. i am really excited to see the platform running in front of me.

Well I am really excited to participate in the Beta testing too. But I still don't find enough information on how we can be beta testers. So I am speculating two things that might happen here. Maybe they will announce the registration link for joining the beta testers once the actual date of beta release is confirmed on December where either a few registrants will be selected or everyone who signs up may be able to participate, or another possible case would be that the Beta Version will be available for the public and everyone can test the platform without signing up. Let's see what's gonna happen.

That is what most probably what's going to happen. Once the beta schedule is definite, registration link to participate on the beta testing is going to be provided. And that could be announced first through the project's official telegram channel. I'll be looking forward to that!
