Development Updates

For the past couple months we have been making publicly available a summary from our weekly Show & Tell Meeting where we review progress and accomplishments from the previous week. Going forward we will begin adding those summaries to these weekly videos to make them more easily consumable.

For the week ending March 22nd below is a summary of development progress.

As it has been from day 1 we have two strategic goals for our initial MVP release.

Make the Internet Free & Fair.

Earn Cryptocurrency. Change the World.

Our Current Tactical Milestones which are in progress are:

Monetization Design, Grooming & WIP

Usability & Hardening

Routing & Node Intelligence

Terminal Intelligence

This week the development team completed a spike for hardware testing to enable Universal Plug & Play which will greatly ease router setup when using the Substratum Network.

Currently we are working on a final card that evolves the User Interface to allow users to copy and share their Node Descriptor more efficiently so that others can join the Substratum Network from their Node & Neighborhood. Once this card is complete the team will launch v.0.4.3 Binaries and push the release to the Substratum website for public use.

MVP Release Schedule

As we look towards node completion we are able to predict when the MVP release will be completed, secure, and available for the public. Since beginning development we have completed 353 cards towards SubstratumNode MVP and currently our known scope is 419 cards to release the MVP. We then add an uncertainty buffer to double our known scope and can base a time estimate vector of 16 weeks using that 2x multiplier. This gives us a safe estimate of when we believe the first production version of SubstratumNode which will allow users to safely and securely use the network while earning cryptocurrency for supporting the network.

That’s it for this week. Make sure you check back for next week’s video so you can stay up to date as we put the final pieces together on this amazing product that has the capability to change the way the world connects and communicates.

Until then thank you for supporting the Substratum network, you can check out our current release on our web-site at https://substratum.net/open-beta and begin supporting the network as we bring you the free and fair internet of tomorrow through the power of the decentralized web.
