It does seem to be a very interesting platform/protocol particularly the cMix privacy technology. However, with so many platforms out there focusing privacy-based communication, it will be interesting to see how team Elixxir market the platform to penetrate this ever crowded space.

  • quantum resistant
  • privacy preserving (Who owns what and who sends what to whom)
  • high performance (> 10000 tx/s)
  • tx finality in seconds
  • fully decentralized

And that is only the blockchain part. There is more, like anonymous voting, dApp (not delivered yet), Messaging (using the cMix platform). If it delivers what they promise then it might be a game changer as it delivers on all aspects that current blockchains in one way or another still miss..

I’ve been interested in this project from day 1.  It seems the coin is unavailable to purchase if you live in the US.  If anyone has any information as to how I can invest please let me know.  I’m sure others here would be interested too.  Chris Larsen announced his support and investment early on.  My very general take on this is this could be a fantastic consumer facing and focused option with XRP handling more of the enterprise/govt/financial services side of things.  They could be very collaborative.

Also the fact you can process business logic ("smart contracts") off-chain but have it validate through the comms/coin layer, so there's no bloat.

I believe that's what the schedule is.

xx BetaNet has onboarded 183 nodes in 45 countries organized into 8 distinct geographic bins (set up to hardwire decentralization of the network).

22 billion messages have been processed (22 million blocks of 1,000).

The xx dashboard now provides a "Quick View" to see network performance with a "Nodes" and "Rounds" view for more detail.  You can "toggle on" or "refresh" for realtime information.  https://dashboard.xx.network

As of last week, the network is using a 4k prime; the result is stronger, future-proofed security at a cost of running slightly slower.  https://forum.xx.network/t/4k-prime-update/2586 

Even so, the network is quite fast.  Latency or time to finality is now at about 2.5 seconds.

Next step is more nodes as well as more work on optimizing processing power and network connectivity!

:o !!!
