All the Grin fans are welcome! Here we have some updates on the project, totally focused on the development. During the last two weeks, there have been 116 open issues in /grin, and 34 open issues in /grin-wallet: merged PRs: 5 in /grin, 3 in /grin-wallet with 4 unique contributors. Last week’s dev meeting covered 2.1.0 & 3.0.0 planning, and Security & Wallet RFCs review. @yeastplume reported that he has been working on adding the first batch of lifecycle functions 2 to the Owner API. Once this is done, wallet authors will be able to create, open, and close wallets entirely via the owner API, which should reduce the need for custom jigging to perform these fundamental tasks. In addition to the lifecycle API, the upcoming 2.1.0 release will also aim to address a few longstanding bugs/issues, with the exact scope to be defined over the next couple of days. David Burkett is helping Litecoin design a Mimblewimble extension block. He discussed with Charlie Lee, e-currencyhodler, and others about how best to add fungibility to Litecoin.

Nevertheless, not only Grin development is amazing — community, Grin tech stars, and the team were quite active socially. Anonymous guys are not always anonymous. Daniel Lehnberg, Grin product manager, had an interview, where he talked about privacy, fungibility, governance, and uncertainty in the world of crypto and blockchain.. @hashmap (Grin core dev) gave a speech about Grin at Web3Summit. The community was incredibly supportive in chats and social networks. Find a million and one reasons to love Grin with us!
