Layer Dev Update — Sept 10th ‘18

Quick weekly updates from the dev team

Last week we worked on SDKs and Layer Node logic, and prepped for the integration of LRX token into the main system. The upcoming features are the last pieces needed before we can start to add utility to the LRX tokens — including token staking and paid Node computation.

This week we will be working more on scoring aspects and building up the LRX token. Additionally, we have put together a demo utility scheduled for development this month (addition to the original roadmap). We will use this to serve as a sales demo for potential partner companies to test the Layer Protocol in a private environment.
