2017-Peerplays-Summer-Update.png

Dear Peerplays Supporters,

We’ve been working nonstop this summer to prepare for the upcoming dapp releases. Here’s our progress report:


PEERPLAYS EIGHT

The first installment of Peerplays Eight enters beta-testing next week, which means everyone will soon have access to the world’s first real-time interactive on-chain game (Rock, Paper, Scissors or “RPS”) from a stylish GUI written entirely in the Unity3D framework.

This downloadable desktop application will provide you with a platform to register and manage your RPS tournaments, view detailed tournament information, as well as (of course!) wager and play in games and tournaments against your peers. Wagering with PPY tokens will be supported at launch, with BTC wagering to be added Q4 2017.

An independent party has created and developed Peerplays Eight under PBSA advisement. Right now we anticipate the public release of this app in approximately 4 weeks, however we remain committed to recommending only such release versions of software that meet the highest standards of provably-fair gaming.


PUBLIC TEST NET

Also in the month of August, PBSA will publish a bulletin with guidelines and recommendations for Peerplays witnesses towards the establishment of a public test network that mirrors the Peerplays blockchain codebase. For security purposes, we will recommend that Peerplays witnesses support a space for applications created by independent parties (such as PBSA) to be thoroughly tested before deciding whether to fork any new software code into the live blockchain.


BOOKIE

The Peerplays decentralized sports betting exchange application BOOKIE continues to progress according to schedule. Thus far, this progress has been concentrated in two key areas. First, the blockchain code has been significantly augmented to support a full-featured betting exchange. The second area has been the development of the downloadable app, which you'll soon be able to use for betting digital currencies on sporting events from anywhere in the world.

During the month of July, we began working on the third and final key component to the Bookie dapp - an extensive suite of python-based tools to help witnesses automate key functions of the dapp relating to accurate data sourcing and on-chain market creation, management and settlement. PBSA will publish these tools several weeks before Bookie is launched, so that active Peerplays witnesses have plenty of time to learn & deploy them on a public test network before going “live”.

Q4 2017 remains our estimated target for the publication of all relevant software code for Bookie. We are really happy with how Bookie is coming together and we look forward to sharing more news with you as soon as possible!


PEERPLAYS CORE

The Peerplays blockchain was launched in June with many built-in features which are not yet supported in the “Peerplays Core” wallet interface. Some of these features include the ability to create threshold-based account permissions (multi-sig), the ability to make blind transfers (aka. “stealth”), and the DEX (decentralized asset exchange) for trading assets paired with the PPY token.

We are pleased to announce that PBSA has just hired two new full-time programmers at our Debert, Nova Scotia location (the bunker) who will be tasked with the ongoing development of the Peerplays Core wallet application and the on-chain referral program. In the coming months, PBSA will publish new updates for Peerplays Core that bridge the gap between this existing back-end functionality and the user-friendly wallet GUI.


PBSA IS NOW HIRING

We are now looking for candidates for following positions:

Position: C++ Programmer
Location: Debert, Nova Scotia

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

As always, we are grateful for the support of Peerplays community members and our software development partners. For more than a year we have been busy working behind the scenes to develop first-of-a-kind applications which represent a new standard in both the blockchain and gaming industries, and we are excited that these awesome products will soon be ready for everyone to use!

You guys might want to resize your images before you upload them. That one was huge :)

Thank you for updates! I hope project will live on!

Awesome work guys, so excited to get an update on all the various things going on at Peerplays and with PBSA. Super excited to see these different pieces come online over the next few months!

It was neat to meet the Peerplays president and see their offices. Peerplays will obviously have their hands full if they intend to succeed in America due to gaming laws.

And that is why they are not "Hosting" anything. At least they are not witnesses in the U.S., meaning, from what I understand, the PBSA does not have active witnesses. They have already stated that they are working within current laws in Canada.

Yeah agree, everything looks great, PBSA seems a fun place to work. Good luck.

The price of bitcoin has exceeded its previous all-time high of $3,000, soaring to $3,200 for the first time.

Figures from Coinbase show the market started moving around 03:00 a.m. when bitcoin’s price climbed above $2,900. At 10:30 a.m., bitcoin recorded a new historic high when it reached $3,200.

Today’s new high pushes the the market value of bitcoin up to $52.1 billion with the entire market now worth $108.9 billion. Over a 24-hour period, the number one digital currency increased its value by 10.19 percent while its value rose by 15.40 percent over the past seven days, according to CoinMarketCap.

It marks a new milestone for bitcoin as it hasn’t seen $3,000 figures since 12 June

What does that have anything to do with this Peerplays update?

Thank you for posting this and your updates on the Hangout. I was part of the early token buyer.

I'm especially looking forward to the Bookie portion of the site. It appears there is a lot of competition coming up, so I hope Peerplays will benefit from some first (or very early) mover advantage.

Please keep on!!

Excellent post @peerplays I liked the narrative, great video, I follow you, we must support ourselves as a community, I would appreciate it if you give me a look at my last post and give me your opinion, greetings and success in everything! :)
