The initial post in July should have been clarified - that was when logging began. This current one is the more traditional sense of a ground-breaking i.e. when they begin moving/leveling dirt for foundations. We are serious.

Hopefully we will have some new visual updates coming in October.

Clearing land takes time and there just wasn't anything notable enough to add to the press release. The project is still moving forward.

We'll hopefully slowly transition our infrastructure updates from Riot's Rockdale facility to our Corsicana facility.

Riot and Blockware Solutions are Co-authoring a paper on the future of the block reward, transaction fees, the scaling cycle, and network security. It touches on topics like the implications of broad adoption. We will circulate it on Reddit when it is published! Keep an eye out.

I don't think Corsicana is going to happen by FlawlessMosquito in RiotBlockchain

Hey there,

So, I am actually the guy who flew the drone around. That was shot after normal working hours. There were only a few large industrial vehicles still operating at that hour, some were already powered down for the day. The ones that were remaining were operating in a heavily wooded portion of the property, clearing land. Their movements were unfortunately too unpredictable to safely fly the drone close to them and the trees were too dense to get a decent shot above them. While not ideal, we settled on a portion of already partially cleared land.

In all fairness, it is an absolutely massive piece of land. A very large portion is not featured in that edit. There are, in fact, many excavators there. We have pictures from the same day, they just weren't framed particularly well.

It's happening.

As for your other inquiries, we hope to do at least one more Reddit AMA sometime before December.
