BlockDAG’s High-tech Dev Release 85: X1 Miner App & Blockchain Explorer Amped with Thrilling Upgrades!

August 2, 2024 By CryptoReporter

BlockDAG has recently launched Dev Release 85, bringing significant enhancements to the X1 mobile application and the blockchain explorer. This pivotal update coincides with the eagerly awaited reveal of the team and strategic insights from CEO Antony Turner, injecting a wave of enthusiasm and anticipation into BlockDAG’s ongoing developments.

The fresh updates to the X1 app introduce sophisticated performance enhancements, innovative user-centric features, and improved support mechanisms. Meanwhile, the updates to the blockchain explorer are designed to boost network operations through greater efficiency and transparency. These improvements come as BlockDAG’s presale momentum accelerates, having reached an impressive $64.2 million, bolstered by a $1 million jump overnight following the team introduction and an AMA session.

These strides underscore BlockDAG’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation and its focus on nurturing a strong community connection, establishing it as a distinguished project within the cryptocurrency domain.

BlockDAG’s Team Unveil: A Consortium of Visionaries

The buildup to the reveal of BlockDAG’s team created a buzz of anticipation, and the unveiling surpassed all expectations. Leading the charge is CEO Antony Turner, a visionary with deep roots in fintech and blockchain. Turner’s past ventures include co-founding SwissOne Capital, a trailblazer in crypto index funds, and significant roles in several digital asset firms.

The team is further bolstered by the likes of Chief Security Officer Dr. Prof. Youssef Khaoulaj, an authority on advanced security protocols, and Senior Advisor Steven Clarke-Martin, a sage in digital transformations. Additionally, Dr. Maurice Herlihy, a blockchain advisor with a prestigious academic background and a slew of theoretical computer science achievements, enriches this powerhouse team.

In a revealing interview, Turner discussed his foray into blockchain since launching SwissOne Capital in 2018. He emphasized the crucial integration of blockchain technology with traditional financial systems and shared his strategic vision for BlockDAG, focusing on adopting superior innovations from various chains. Under Turner’s leadership, the emphasis is on cultivating a resilient and cooperative team essential for realizing BlockDAG’s ambitious goals. Investors have reacted bullishly to the team reveal, a nod to its expertise to craft strategies to continuously yield market leading gains.

Following the team’s introduction, an engaging AMA session allowed Turner to address critical community inquiries, enhancing transparency and solidifying investor confidence. The discussion touched on strategic alliances, regulatory challenges, and initiatives for engaging developers. This session highlighted the presale’s extraordinary success, with over $64.2 million gathered and the latest batch valuing BDAG at $0.017 per coin. The sale of more than 10,100 mining rigs also indicates a robust market interest.

Dev Release 85: Key Enhancements and User Experience Improvements

Dev Release 85 marks a significant phase in BlockDAG’s ecosystem evolution. The X1 mobile application has received backend upgrades to smooth out leaderboard performance issues and introduced a force update feature to ensure all users are operating the latest version, which helps minimize bugs and boost user experience.

A newly established dedicated support team will enhance the response times for user queries, with training focused on application best practices to ensure effective and efficient user support. Additional improvements include a new script to manually remove rewards from users banned for misuse, with plans to automate this process.

Testing is underway for several exciting new features aimed at refining the user experience. These include an enhanced user onboarding process, added privacy features, measures to block invalid phone numbers, and improvements to the Android devices’ OTP resend functionality and referral module.

On the blockchain explorer front, all scheduled updates are now live and under review. After stakeholder approval of the devnet URL and finalization of the user guide, the explorer will be publicly launched, marking a significant achievement for BlockDAG.
