Hi everyone,
this month I wasn’t really sure if there will be enough material to build a monthly update on. A lot of vacation time for us happened so a little bit less activity was seen in public, well not in development though. So, lets take a look!
I would start with
TEAM & COOPERATION
We did aquire a new marketing member AJAWs — he would like to bring Stellite to Korea and he started working on a community Blog for Stellite to have a tool supporting his idea. He is planning interviews with the devs, insider info from development, etc. What started as a discussion with a community member ended by him joining the team and this worked out very good. This is exactly the thing we wanted to achieve — people joining the team because they care and want to help Stellite grow.
We were offered cooperation with Cryptopulse — The UK’s Number 1 Crypto and Blockchain Podcast (https://www.cryptopulse.co.uk/). We already started to cooperate in matter of design, presentation and promotion.
MEDIA ACTIVITY
We started our Twitter community opinion vote about new Stellite logo style which should lead to finishing new web design and releasing for public — it is taking a long time but we hope it will be worth it for future marketing plans.
Several new options appeared right after the Community vote was started and I have to say some interesting ones where amongst them. I would guess there will me a lot options to choose from.
In addition, we did a nice thing for others and created the XTL fundraiser for Kerala flood victims which resulted in raising over 1M XTL. Thanks everyone who got involved!
The Community also released some mining guides and videos lately, which is definitely a nice thing to see:

SERVICES & TECHNOLOGY
Network
Even though we are still working on improving our network code and thinking about future updates (we are considering some big changes concerning fees, mobile mining, etc). The previous updates effectively resulted in big increase in stability and overall health and we released an article about the network and difficulty adjustment this month. Check it out if you didn’t.
Wallet and daemon
There are several things still being worked on. New wallet with new core supporting Ledger is being tested, although we did bump into some issues with it. There are several things we do consider for this release, so stay tuned. We did go through public IPFS+Zeronet alpha test without many problems appearing, which is definitely a good sign to continue.
Mobile Miner
We also released some early alpha of Stellite Cash (XTL) Android XMRIG. An Android CPU miner. For now, it is command line only. If you want to try, you can start at https://github.com/stellitecoin/xtlandrig (or precompiled binaries at https://github.com/ahmyi/xtlandrig).
StellitePay
Security features like password reset etc were implemented and we are close to resolve every issue we found in internal tests. A StellitePay article should be released next month presenting it to the public. This is when the beta invites will be rolled out to the public.
HOW TO SUPPORT STELLITE
You can support us by sharing information about Stellite with other people. You can also support us by offering your skills to make Stellite tech and/or marketing, etc move forward.
There is also donation possibility to XTL wallet

Thanks to xtlpool.com you can now set a donation percent when mining which will directly support the Stellite team.
WHAT WILL BE NEXT
Everything is moving, as we want it to be (even though sometimes it could be faster, I do agree but quality over quantity). I hope that you will stay tuned for news about products, releases and exchange listings we are still working on.
Products are still in development to see releases in following months and as we said multiple times, we do not want to rush and jeopardize functionality and security in any way.
P.S. Merchandise store is being worked on so you will be able to support the Stellite grow in style.
