Hello Eximchain supporters,
In the past one month, we have been working very hard on tech development including Mainnet Development, Quadratic Voting and YOOsourcing Dapp. We have also onboarded a few new hires and kicked off Eximchain Global Hackathon Tour 2018!
Technical development
Mainnet Development
We’re currently going through security audit on mainnet development and setting up security monitoring with Threat Stack with the goal to finalize codes by July. We are also integrating with Enterprise versions of Terraform and Vault in preparation for mainnet launch.
Additionally, we’re happy to see hundreds of downloads on the CLI tools (command line interface) we created. We’re glad that our development efforts bridging traditional system with blockchain becoming helpful to the developer community:

Quadratic Voting
We were recently featured on Forbes on why Quadratic Voting could be a new effective way to govern enterprise blockchain and how Eximchain implements the mechanism. We have been continually making progress on UI and visual design. In the meantime, please remember to participate our community bounty on Quadratic Voting Illustration! The result will be announced in late July along with an on-line AMA.
YOOsourcing Dapp
We have also made significant progress on our first POC with YOOSourcing. The app’s functionality is in place and the relevant smart contracts have been written and tested with the app. We have been working out the deployment details and writing thorough instructions for YOOSourcing to reference later how to use and deploy all the different components of the POC together. We also arranged meeting with YOOsourcing team as the functional Dapp is ready to hand off.
