Another two weeks, and another developer update from the investFeed team. We’ve been working around the clock to make sure we’re hitting our deadlines and refining our network to the greatest extent possible. As we continue to develop the features listed in our previous developer updates, we would like to give our users another sneak peek, and show them what we’ve been working on.

Tipping Features

*NOTE* — After taking gas into account, we’ve decided to change the tipping value from $0.10 to 10 IFT. The transaction call will also default to the lowest amount of gas to mitigate transaction costs. Guides on how to use the tipping system will be released along with the feature release. Our soft deadline is still the end of next week, if that is to change it will only be due to security reasons.

Development of the tipping system on investFeed is still well underway, but we’d like to showcase how it will look from a user’s perspective. If you see a post that you wish to tip, once you hit the “Tip” button, a MetaMask transaction will be called to include 10 IFT, and the reasonably the lowest amount of gas required to send the transaction.

Once the tip is sent, users will be presented with a confirmation pop-up, and the ability to view the transaction through Etherscan.

Wallet View

Along with this, the wallet-view feature is currently live on investFeed in your settings. In order to receive tips, you will have to input an ERC20 compatible wallet address. When a user wishes to tip you, this is the address that it will be sent to.

When News?

We’re currently working on finishing our news integration across both mobile and web. Soon, news will be built into the stream on the web, and will have a dedicated tab in our mobile application.

Charting, Data, our UI and the Future

Updates to charts and data, and our entire UI overhaul are still underway. We will be making announcements as soon as each feature rolls out via our announcements channel on Telegram, our Twitter, and our Subreddit.
