MIMIR Blockchain Solutions Weekly Development Update (Jan 26)

MIMIR has had an exciting week. We released the rust user client andrust validator client on github. We also built a faucet for theRopsten Testnet that will automatically fund any validator client thatis downloaded and executed. We are now ready for the world to playwith the MIMIR Blockchain to Internet Bridge. This released version isa limited subset of the final implementation, that includes thefollowing RPC methods: eth_estimateGas, eth_call, eth_gasPrice,eth_getTransactionCount, and eth_submitRawTransaction.

This API is still undergoing large changes but we hope to have the API stabilized in the coming days. The system should be ready for simplistic Dapps in the coming week. We are through the worst of the waterfall, and we areswitching to a continuous integration flow that will allow rapidimprovements. If you want to play with the system, please download andhack away. If you want any specific features added first, let us know!
