DIP20 will become available to the network through BIP-9 style activation (miner signaling):

https://github.com/dashpay/dips/blob/master/dip-0020.md


So I've done some further digging ...

Reminder: We have only implemented a select set of OPCODES, check DIP20 for details.

DIP20 implements the 'P_CHECKDATASIG OPCODE' for example:

The opcode OP_Checkdatasig is a Script operation that checks the validity of a signature using a message and public key. Essentially the operation calculates the hash within a transaction in order to validate signatures in an automated way. OP_Checkdatasig allows for data to be imported that can be validated through the use of an oracle. The opcode has facilitated some very cool concepts on the BCH network like a noncustodial escrow system, an onchain SLP* token auction console, a recurring payment system, an endowment platform, and an onchain game of chess.

(*) The Simple Ledger Protocol (SLP for short) is basically a token platform. Tokens can be used to represent almost anything, from deeds, titles, and stocks to video game items, collectibles, and even vote.

Release status update:

71.9% on V0.17.0.2 | 20.2% on 0.16.1.1 | 7.9% on OTHER


Update regarding HD wallets:

Quote
Upgrading a non-Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet to an HD wallet is now possible. Previously new HD wallets could be created, but non-HD wallets could not be upgraded. This update will enable existing non-HD wallets to upgrade to take advantage of HD wallet features. Upgrades must be done via either the debug console or command line and a new backup must be made when this upgrade is performed.

Source:
https://newsroom.dash.org/136596-updated-product-brief-dash-core-release-v017

Dash Core HD wallet documentation:
https://docs.dash.org/en/0.17.0/wallets/dashcore/advanced.html#create-hd-wallet

Dash Core docs have been updated with a specific 'upgrade to HD' section by 'thephez':
https://docs.dash.org/en/0.17.0/wallets/dashcore/advanced.html#upgrade-to-hd

  • Make sure you understand what you're doing. Read the documentation.
  • Try the upgrade process on a test wallet if you're unfamiliar with it.
  • Come to the Dash Discord if you need help.

REMEMBER: A new backup must be created after upgrading to an HD wallet.

The upgrade is going really smooth, 67.9% of the MN network has been updated to Dash Core V0.17.0.2:



SPORK_23_QUORUM_POSE will be activated shortly after we reach the ~80% threshold.

I've provided your feedback (including suggestion) to the DashPay devs on their Discord.
You did a nice job by sending my reports to the dash dev. Unfortunately I am not active in discord. But yeah I told about this in dash testnet feedback telegram group.

But I can not understand why I am facing the UI bug. Because some people sent some screenshots in tg where it is clearly showing without any bug.

Hope all will be ok in upcoming update

No problem. The issue is currently on their backlog and will be fixed in one of the coming updates.

If anyone is interested in our Dash Discord, the link is: http://staydashy.com (you will be redirected).

It's the best way to get a quick answer on any question you may have regarding Dash.

Who had tested the testnet dash pay android app?

I have finished my testing yesterday+today. Super cool app indeed. But I faced a vision error. And I had a little suggestion.  Smiley

The vision bug like this👇

And the suggestion is *sent to a address* should be shown in font/hope page.

Thanks for testing our new DashPay app!

The team is indeed aware of the minor UI issues that are being reported by people who test the app. The devs know what the cause is.

I've provided your feedback (including suggestion) to the DashPay devs on their Discord.

MNOs,

It appears an incompatibility has been found in Sentinel with Dash Core v0.17.0.2 causing it to "report a failure mode" (no exact details available to me at the moment). 

The Core team is on it and creating a sentinel update that will address the issue.

Once the new release is out you will need to update your sentinel with the standard 'git pull' command.

FYI, you can monitor sentinel releases here:
https://github.com/dashpay/sentinel/releases

The network is currently 60.1% updated to V0.17.0.2:
I must be missing something. Where was Release 17 announced that already 60% are updated by now? Don't see 17 mentioned here nor in dash.org so where from do ppl have the update info? (hopefully not from discourt I don't use that since they force you to identfy and haven't found a good way around it yet)

Indeed it wasn't posted on bitcointalk, here's the official announcement:
https://newsroom.dash.org/140840-dash-core-group-announces-the-release-of-dash-core-v01702

Well how can I update best?
I set up the nodes on the vps according to xkcd's description on dash.org

Will this do it ? (I manual replaced the release version numbers on a code snipplet I found for v0.14.0.5  update on that page in dash.org

Code:
Code:
cd /tmp/&& \
wget https://github.com/dashpay/dash/releases/download/v0.17.0.2/dashcore-0.17.0.2-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz&& \
sha256sum dashcore-0.17.0.2-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz &&\
cd /opt && \
sudo tar xvf /tmp/dashcore-0.17.0.2-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz && \
sudo systemctl restart dashd

or should I better use Masternode-Zeus? Will that work?
I guess I have to be logged in as Dashadmin and create a directory somehow for zeus so I can reuse it or where do you get it to?

It's a standard major release. Normal procedure applies. It's not required to use Masternode Zeus, this is a tool provided by one of our community members.

The author of Masternode Zeus is on our Dash Discord: https://www.staydashy.com/

Make sure to update sentinel as well!

Good news for the dash community. Just see an announcement on dash Official twitter that Dash Pay Testnet version is on google playstore. So It's time to test the dash pay and giving feedback/sharing experience to build it awesome.



Source : https://mobile.twitter.com/Dashpay/status/1397597537582911493

I just saw it too. This is actually great news for Android users. Now they can directly access the DashPay Testnet App in the Google PlayStore, install it and try it out for themselves.

I'm fascinated by the potential of Dash Platform. The fact that it will act like a decentralized "App Store" using Platform chain as the fuel and Dash Drive as the storage is amazing.

That's right, it's quite an amazing evolution ;-) for Dash. The first Dapps that have been created by several Dash Platform community devs are very impressive. Especially considering it's done on a decentralized architecture.

If I had any coding ability I would be all over this shot to make a difference in an emerging technology, and get paid for contributing to boot. Exciting opportunity!

You should learn to code!


We currently have a pretty small, but vibrant community ongoing. Don't hesitate to join us.



The easiest way to get connected is probably through the Dash Devs Discord.

Click the following link to go straight to the Dash Incubator: https://dashincubator.app/

Funded from a Dash blockchain proposal and focused on developing tools, infrastructure and Dapps for Dash’s Evolution upgrade, any kind of work that aligns with our strategy can be incentivized and worked on together with full transparency. Whether you want to propose ideas, develop code, manage & promote projects, or improve the Incubator app itself, check the bounties or join the Dash Devs Discord server to chat with like-minded people in the #dash-incubator channel.

Earning bounties via the Dash Incubator is not the only way to earn Dash via Platform.

After mainnet release you can obviously monetize your finished Dapps as well and create numerous income streams that way.
