It’s been a busy week once again. On January 13th, we released the next version of Terminal to the testers. The most noticeable change was the new Swarm City branding.

The number of people testing the Terminal has increased to over 60, representing new countries, such as Ecuador, France, Indonesia, Germany, and the Netherlands.

The scenario’s to test:

Create a new vault (identity and wallet), with avatar and username stored on ipfs

Change the picture and the username

Import a token sale wallet

Import an external wallet by private key

Watch the token balance

Backup the vault

By growing the group of testers, we gathered more feedback:

The Terminal doesn’t load on some devices

No feedback when I upload a wrong filetype for avatar

In the meantime we have been working on:

The token exchange: swapping ARC for the new Swarm City Token SWT

Sending and receiving SWT

Different solution to download the backup on iOS

Feedback about avatar picture: filetype, size

Some front end improvements

Bugfixes

Expected coming week:

The new version for the testers will include the token transfer. We will ask our tester groups to go through following scenario’s:

Remove user data and start over

Import MyEtherwallet with ARC no ETH and do the token exchange

Import MyEtherwallet with ARC and ETH and do the token exchange

Import ARC wallet with ARC no ETH and do the token exchange

Import ARC wallet with ARC and ETH and do the token exchange

Create new wallet, send ARC and no ETH and do the token exchange

Create new wallet, send ARC and ETH and do the token exchange

Send and receive SWT

Coming weeks:

Upload your vault backup file

Syncing devices

Sending and receiving tokens

Setting a preference reference currency (SWT/USD, SWT/EUR)

Bugfixes and improvements for Terminal

Working on the first release of Boardwalk

We will be reporting on our testing here with every new release.
