I am fully expecting an update by the end of September, but I was secretly hoping we would have something by today since it's 6 months since Octocoin launched.

yeah, surely by the end of Setptember....
or maybe OCTOber

EDIT: Maybe you guys are interested in this ANN too (free stakes available). Would be nice if you write LeFiste as referral above your post if you claim a stake.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=768796.0that's a possibility....... you know in politics when they use the term October Surprise? well maybe the devs are intentionally running it out to finish things so they can post a huge October Surprise lol.
Didn't we say something similar about August as it was the 8th month?
Maybe "don't blink" is literal, we should all tape our eyelids up for 8 days, that'll do it

I heard if 8 of us do this, stand in front of 8 mirrors, chanting "Octodev" 8 times, he'll appear. Totally legit, you can't make this stuff up.
On the cereal side of things tho, it won't be long. Also it looks like instead of a new ASIC unit, we will be getting cloud based replacement. Good for our electric bills, but also bad because for now we can't point that towards Octo

maybe when Fusion comes through with the octo multipool, our hosts will add it to the list (GAW).
