Stratis Breeze Wallet and Masternode Release on Bitcoin Mainnet - or is it?🤔
Today the Stratis Breeze Wallet with Privacy Protocol went live on the Bitcoin mainnet. The date was announced beforehand and it is a highly anticipated feature. Surprisingly, however, today's mainnet release is a private beta release and not a wide public release as expected.
The Breeze wallet itself has en enhanced user interface and a Masternode discovery feature. The announcement made by the Stratis team seems to indicate that actually operating your own Masternode will be only available to select communitymembers. Wether or not this means that truly private Bitcoin transactions can be made through Stratis after today, or wether this will only happen in the beta group is unclear.
Personally I see this as rather disappointing news. It sounds as if they couldn't make the deadline and simply needed more time. Now, instead of a public release they are extending the beta and posting an announcement about that instead.
Stratis has had quite a run lately with regards to the Masternode and privacy protocol release. The news is just in, but the price has not moved yet. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next coming hours. I would not be surprised if the price of Stratis took a hit because of this, although for now it seems to be holding strong.

Nice run through of events thanks! What do you think to the full node alpha release happening on the 18th?
First time Stratis holders will be able to stake, but I believe you will need a full node to do so?
Could they or should they change to DPOS? I don't know, but it's working well for Ark so far (Don't mind what is happening on lisk [cough] ) :)
I'm going to throw it out there and say that during the recent low Stratis has been through, there will be a number of people have been building up decent stacks to run a node.
I haven't followed it closely in fairness, but would like to see a return to form on the price. If for no other reason than to support the fact that projects with a market cap of $1bln are worth that value!
Well, the price is back up to it's previous highs in dollars so there's that! But in Bitcoin everything is lagging behind still.
If all goes according to plan with Stratis then full nodes would be released on the 18th yes. But I have no idea how many STRAT you need to run one. I'm not interested in staking STRAT myself.. I believe the rewards are rather low.
I don't think they have any plans to switch to DPoS. I have my doubts about DPoS too anyway, I'm not sure it's really 'better', just wrote a post about it.
Yeah, the Bitcoin monster just crushes satoshi value out of everything in its way! :)
