Dear Community membersMembers,

It is my pleasure to give you a second next report of the Dash core team progress. Below, you will find our the report covering activities performed through the end of MarchApril, grouped by the four strategic areas of focus for 2016.

Software Development

3. Dash wallet for Android - updated features (lead developer: HashEngineering)
  1. @HashEngineering and @tomasz.ludek are working together on functional and graphical
  2. More testing on the app is needed to see if any of the UI changes caused any trouble or are missing any pieces
  3. Next steps are modifications to the code to allow the user to select the amount of "confidence" they want in InstantX transaction Lock votes. The first level will be disable IX. The second level will be to trust that incoming IX Concensus Votes were verified by the test of the DASH Network. The third level will maintain the masternode list and it will verify that consensus votes are from existing and valid masternodes (the votes are signed).
  4. After these two things are done (testing for UI, confidence), then there will be a final beta testing. Then a release on Google Play.
