The Beta Network has launched and the first wave of testers are up and running. It’s taken a wee while, but we got there, just as David always knew we would. It could never have happened without the steadfast support of the community over the years.
Thanks to you the network has grown from our original 2,000 MaidSafe nodes to over 17,000 nodes and counting, our biggest by some margin.
Bux is in Texas right now at the Consensus conference waiting to wow the audience. Go @bux!
Currently we're beavering away to get another testnet out of the door, building on the successes of ThisIsNotBetaRewardsNet and knocking off a few rough edges.
We’re particularly keen to get discord bot fully integrated this time round to automate the calculation of nanos for those running nodes.
We have two new team members First, we are massively pleased that @Shu has agreed to join us to help out with monitoring, observability and visualisation of operations.
Second, we’re delighted to welcome Nic, who joins as product manager. This is an essential role as we move out of the R&D phase into delivery.
