For those interested:  www.electricchain.org now has 3 people from Parc acting as observers and we have an intro to project Sunshot http://energy.gov/eere/sunshot/sunshot-initiative from the DOE among other things going on under the hood. We don't even know what to do with that yet, but it sounds super interesting. Some large solar installers and developers are sniffing around solarcoin as well.  We can't make any formal anouncements at this time, but think this will be a very interesting year for a whole host of reasons.

Project sheets and proposals for electricchain will be drafted and circulated among MIT students soon and be made public.  If you have ideas, submit them or join the electricchain slack.

If you know any solar monitoring companies, would be great to add them to the electricchain send them our way.  Sunspec.org talks are underway among other things. We are also pursing further definition of project proposals to submit to NASA pending our NASA contacts' approval. These are early stage and not official deals etc. yet.

There are some amazing projects which will be written up as proposals with pilots that need people to lead them. Too early to describe in detail publicly, but really out there and hugely impactful.  Again, join the slack and follow a channel or volunteer your blockchain, hardware etc. skills.

Our latest wallet hardfork is being tested by Steve.  The fork is designed for security improvements and has no impact on coin economics (interest rates) or performance. it should also allow for deployment of the Coinomi wallet in their next release.

We had anticipated to release 3 week ago, but given choices would rather be late and ship quality.  

New site from Global SolarChange is also underway for release in coming weeks.  Everything always takes longer than expected in life.  Glad we are on a 40 year schedule with exponential growth
