WAVES Wrap-Up

Tokens Specification

The specification for Waves’ asset exchange and tokens system has now been published on github. Waves’ tokens protocol includes asset-to-asset trading at the core level, as well as centralised order-matching – enabling the speed of a crypto traditional exchange but with trades executed on a peer-to-peer level. A separate update providing details for implementation of custom tokens will be provided in due course.

Lite Client Updates

In other news, we are making several minor alterations to the lite client to make it more user-friendly. These include some styling and the addition of a dialogue box after a SEND transaction has been initiated, confirming recipient and amount. We will also add a variable fee option.

As things stand the overwhelming priority is to roll out full nodes and enable a stable, secure public network. Consequently the next round of major changes to the UI will occur after that critical update is complete.
