Thursday Release

hi this is charles hoskinson broadcasting live from sunny colorado a quick video today just give you a brief update about the upcoming release so we have daedalus version 2.2 coming out with smash and coming out with the new node version 1.19 after talking to qa devops and the rest of the gang it looks they're very significant performance improvements some aspects of the software a hundred times faster and qa is reporting that everything looks pretty good so far so there's still some formalities and some last minute checks that need to be done but if there's nothing discovered today all things knock on wood we should be looking at a thursday release a general release for all users mac linux and windows so anyway look for that tomorrow go to the deadliest wallet website you should get an update notification as well in daedalus itself and this will be a massive performance improvement some cases a hundred times faster than the old node it just depends on what operation you're performing so sync speeds have been improved chain validation and revalidation have been improved improvements with the open closing of database so a lot of issues that people are having over the last two weeks three weeks about deadlifts being very heavy in the shelly era have been resolved in this new node release so we'll keep working on performance of course and i'm sure there's certain edge cases that can continue to be smoothed out but i'm very proud of the team in an incredibly short period of time they've been able to make rather significant optimizations the software and we've managed to polish things a bit more there's more work to do especially on the wall at back end and of course the next node release coming in a few weeks will have even more improvements and more features and functionality so we'll just continue the august march and we're over halfway through everything and we're a little ahead of scheduling certain things and on schedule with other things in terms of all of the post-launch remediation of the 15 top exchanges just bittrex and la coin are still in the red still a lot more work to do on certain things mostly optimizations and improvements and we're of course working directly with those exchanges to to get things where they need to be and 24 7 we're available they send us logs we look at them we parse them and we've made a lot of improvements over the last two weeks that have been requested from the exchanges and so of course this is a a process it's a back and forth it's iterative development but we're getting where we need to go most exchanges are in the green and certainly all the exchanges should be in the green if they care to be within the next few weeks worst case scenario but i'm optimistic that this week and next week we should be able to resolve the last tail issues and there's always tail issues especially on legacy software and we're working real hard with them to do that so anyway that's the update major note coming improvement coming version 1.19 at daedalus 2.
