DashCopay Release Plan

The Dash Core Group team is pleased to announce that we are preparing to launch the DashCopay wallet application on iOS and Android.

High level features of this new wallet include:

Create and import personal wallets

Create and join shared wallets (multi-signature)

Send and receive payments via QR code or copy/paste address

Create address book

View transaction history

Invite friends via email, text or social

Set local currency

Set desired network fees to increase/decrease confirmation times

Touch ID for log in (iOS)

We faced several challenges in the implementation of this project. However, we made a promise to the community to deliver DashCopay to support the need for multi-signature mobile wallets. The challenges included third-party vendor management as well as underlying architectural issues inherited from the reference Copay wallet. Despite the challenges and delay in delivery, we feel that this product will be of value to many members of the Dash community.

Because the Copay code was so challenging to adapt, we are planning a phased rollout to identify any remaining issues with the software. We will have a phased rollout to minimize risks and maximize our ability to find and resolve bugs. After each phase, we will evaluate results and determine whether we should move on to the next one.

The phases will be as follows:

Beta version for testnet (30-day test)
Beta version for mainnet (30-day test)
Production launch with gradual rollout by geographical area
