This is a huge update. I am praising The Golem Project team for the great effort.

This should help drag the price up a bit.
However, I think it will go back down before the proper Brass Golem 1.0 gets released, and you can start using their product through the mainnet Ethereum network and start selling computing power or buy computing power. Get in Golem before you feel it's too late!
