S01E10 - Will Wall Street Be Crushed by Crypto? Plus other news & weekly MAIDSAFE update

Apologies again for the sound quality this week - Last week we had the same problem and I misdiagnosed it as a connection problem - it seems it is a problem with my sound system and will work to nail it down this week.

3. Topic #4 -- MAIDSAFE update
   
   1. Highlights:
      
      1. -- They will be holding a SAFE DevCon on Monday 23rd April in Ayr, Scotland. The focus will be on developers and the event will be live streamed for those who are not able to attend.
         
      2. -- They announced that they have filled the Test and Release Manager role and also have a new Rust engineer joining the team.
         
      3. -- The front-end team released a new version of the SAFE Browser (v0.9.0) and will be focusing on UX improvements in the Peruse browser as the next wave of changes.
         
      4. -- The C# bindings are being tested on mobile and the code for the messaging app and the authenticator for mobile is being updated with the latest C# bindings. [IMO, this allows app devs who use C# to build apps that can interact/communicate with SafeNet - the short of it, is that this eases access for app developers]
         
   2. -- The Routing team is going to give test-driven development another go for the implementation of Milestone 1
      
   3. -- Crust is getting closer to fully encrypted communications.
