Development

Light Wallet Development Progress

After receiving feedback from the community, the Metaverse light wallet beta has been upgraded with additional functions including freezing and a Thai language option. You may access v0.1.1 of the light wallet beta, Beta Decay, at https://www.myetpwallet.com/.

The wallet is an SPV client and is accessible through your browser. Unlike the full node client, the Light Wallet does not require users to sync the entire blockchain and has a simple user interface that allows users to easily manage their digital assets while on-the-go.

Full-node Metaverse Wallet (MVSD)

MVSD v0.7.2 is undergoing some final tests and will go live at night later today.

Digital identities on Metaverse are now under development. A draft of the design documents for planned digital identity functions have been completed. Functions will be accessible through MVSD, and a sneak peek of the UI is as below:
