When we talked at a round of rum in September about the fact that there is no privacy coin that records no metadata and is at the same time secure against 51% attacks, we would not have thought that only a few weeks later we had built the most anonymous and secure privacy coin.

At this point I quote our captain, who recently gave an extensive interview:

„There are over 30 contributers to date, who have provided services to the growth and development of Pirate chain. Developers are all working in a team fashion to bring in knowledge and experience from all parts of the crypto sphere. With our diverse group, there is always someone with the knowledge of how to complete a needed task, or someone with a connection to someone who can. We have completed many first time accomplishments in the Cryptocurrency realm when it comes to privacy protection and we will continue to innovate and collaborate with the community towards these efforts.“

Sapling Q1 2019

Pirate Foundation Q1 2019

Tortuga (CEX) Q1 2019

The Pirate Foundation is getting serious. We are setting up this foundation to give everything a framework. We are a real decentralized project!

Sapling is a network upgrade that introduces significant efficiency improvements for shielded transactions that will pave the way for broad mobile, exchange and vendor adoption of Zcash shielded addresses.

Performance for shielded addresses: Payments involving the new Sapling z-addresses can be constructed in as little as a few seconds and with only 40 megabytes of memory.

Decoupled spend authority: Allows the hardware that constructs the zero-knowledge proof to be independent from the hardware that signs for the transaction.

Improved keys: Full viewing keys allow owners of shielded addresses the ability to view incoming and outgoing transaction details without exposing their private spending key.

The Tortuga Exchange is a central exchange to be programmed by members of the community. Our goal is to be listed on other exchanges as well.

Simple Payment Verification (zSPV) Q2 2019

Hardware wallet integrations Q3 2019

zSPV Server gives Piratechain the ability to be useable on a wider range of wallets and exchanges including lite wallets, mobile wallets and hardware wallet devices.

It´s time to say Thank you!

On behalf of all pirates, I would like to thank Komodo and our developers for the core work and daily support.
