Core dev, Jag Sidhu, has provided a brief but exciting update on the Syscoin Bridge development work. He has created a legacy ERC20 token that mocks an existing ERC20 and has been able to successfully use it on testnet over the bridge. It is all working as expected and they are now waiting on two bug reports from art-of-bug, which may change design slightly depending on the severity of one of the bugs.

On a separate note, on Wednesday art-of-bug will unveil a 'hashcash' based faucet (first of its kind) where users will be required to do Proof-of-Work in order to collect faucet coins (just a small PoW amount which is secure from ASICs). The faucet will be linked to from http://bridge.syscoin.org/ to showcase the bridge.
