Hey everyone,
It’s time for The Unofficial Weekly Stratis Retrospect #6.
If you missed my previous blog and want to read it, you can find it here.
Stratis Full Node GUI Alpha Release
Stratis kicked off last week with the alpha release of the Stratis Full Node GUI, delivering yet another key milestone on their development roadmap. The full announcement can be read here.
The community immediately began testing the Stratis Full Node, and thanks to those community testers, here’s a preview of the Stratis Full Node in action:
You can also find a video of the Stratis Full Node GUI in action over here.
Stratis Blockchain Generation Technology
Last week, Stratis also announced another exciting success in their mission to provide world-class blockchain services to enterprises. Stratis has achieved the capability to provide companies with custom blockchains built entirely on Stratis blockchain technology. This BaaS (Blockchain as a Service) technology is now available today and can begin to be deployed to eagerly awaiting enterprise customers.
In other words, Stratis is now officially open for business!
You can find more information in the official announcement over here.
The CEO of Stratis, Chris Trew, gave Stratis’ Slack members some additional information about what it means for businesses and customers that want to employ Stratis BaaS.
Development update
And if that wasn’t enough for last week, Stratis also released a development roadmap update regarding the Stratis Identity App, Stratis sidechains and Stratis smart contracts:
- Stratis Identity App release date: Q1 2018
- Stratis Sidechains Alpha release date: Q1 2018
- Stratis Smart Contracts release date: Q1 2018
Needless to say, Q1 of 2018 will be a very exciting quarter for Stratis. You can read the full update over here.
The Evolution of Stratis Wallets
The following examples show the evolution of the Stratis QT wallet to the Breeze Wallet and the new Stratis Wallet in native C#.
Marketing
As Chris Trew mentioned before, Stratis will start a big marketing push in Q1 of 2018. The fact they have not already spent millions on marketing to get where they are today is truly amazing.
Stratis has consistently and organically remained a top-30 marketcap coin and a top-20 volume coin on major exchanges without any major marketing push. Now that useable Stratis products are available in the marketplace, everyone is looking forward to the effects of the substantial marketing dollars that are about to be invested.
Secret Project
With all the development and products that are well underway for Stratis, there is even more up their sleeve. In the near future, Stratis will provide more information about the “secret project” that has kept everyone’s curiosity on the edge of its seat. When full disclosure rolls out in early 2018, you will read about it in my weekly blog.
Blitz
This week, Chris Trew also mentioned that Blitz will be the first existing coin deployed via Stratis’ Blockchain-as-a-Service offering. Here’s a summary:
Stratis is actually moving very close to this. With development over the last few weeks, Blitz now has one of the best platforms in crypto with real utility in theviralexchange.com
Blitz will have access to most of Stratis’ technology (Tumblebit, Breeze), once they are part of the Stratis ecosystem
Article from Coincentral.com
Thanks to coincentral.com for writing an article about Stratis. The article gives more information about Stratis and can be used as a Stratis beginner’s guide. You can find the article over here.
Stratis price surges over 100k satoshi
As most of you know by now, I personally don’t focus on the short-term price of Stratis. I believe in Stratis for the long term, and we all know prices can fluctuate wildly from day-to-day prior to truly epic sustaining rises.
Of course, I am happy to see all the hard work from the team and community is now better reflected by a substantially higher price. This gives a lot of new exposure to Stratis, which obviously benefits all of us in the long term.
And there you have another great week for Stratis.
To everyone out there, happy holidays, and I’ll see you all again soon!
Cheers,
Khilone
