BitGate Update May 2018
Here are the latest updates from the development of BitGate.
Update from the Developers
An early demo of the BitGate exchange platform has been developed. The demo features customer onboarding with live BankID, buying/selling of BTC and a draft portfolio page with asset stats and a wallet for sending BTC to other BitGate customers. The wallet has been shown to key partners, including Signicat and BankID, and it was demonstrated at BankID-dagen on April 19th. It has also been presented to potential banking partners.
The beta version of the BitGate wallet should be ready for the end of Q2. It features easy identification with BankID, secure custody of BTC and send/receive functionality. This is now the main focus of the BitGate technical development effort.
