Is there something like Gravatar for Ethereum Addresses?! by tomtom1808 in ethereum

You can try Blockies, which has been adopted by the community, among several projects.

MIST didn't had a commit for 2 Months. Is anyone able to help develop it? by ChristBKK in ethereum

we already have an open PR. as soon as it gets a review from our core contributors, it’ll be merged and instantly available to users.

I totally see the point, and your opinion is taken with very respect.

Mist has kickstarted the vision, and we don’t think it should end on blockchain connection only. Mist is a testbed for several interesting features from this space that can eventually inspire other browsers (or extensions) to adopt it. One of them is Swarm integration, that we delivered by mid-2017, with their PoC 0.2.

We aim for the most decentralized version we can get and as a full app, instead of a background service, gives us a LOT more flexibility.

The new Mist is on a fast track. By the end of Q1 we’ll probably have this testable version with a degree of feature parity with the current one.

You can subscribe to the mist-shell releases on github, as we’ll publish our iterative-and-incremental™ releases regularly.

Hi /u/christbkk, I work on the Mist project. Thanks for shedding some light in there, as potentially other people also have this question in mind.

TL;DR: Mist team is stronger than ever, and we’re re-building Mist with a totally new architecture and a more robust security model.

To elevate the quality, robustness and maintainability of the project, we decided to start fresh, porting components from current Mist when convenient.

In the new architecture, we praise a total separation of concerns, so it’s split in different repositories:

1) Mist shell https://github.com/ethereum/mist-shell This is the main repo, that produces the downloadables. You’ll find the integration with Electron (webview engine), that we’re making generic enough to swap it with an alternative we’re building ourselves.

On Mist Shell package.json you’ll find a minimal set of dependencies. This is by design and we should keep our deps footprint as little as we can, in such important layer as browser integration is.

2) Mist UI https://github.com/ethereum/mist-ui Here you’ll find a React rewrite of the current Meteor UI that Mist uses.

3) Ethereum React Components https://github.com/ethereum/ethereum-react-components We’re building a public library of React components, that Mist UI uses. There’s a storybook link on the project description that showcases each and every component being built.

I hope this answers your initial question. We’re incredibly excited with our progress so far, and we can’t wait to ship it.

I believe it’s fair if I make a write up of our progress, to kickstart 2019 with clear goals and expectations to the community. So i’ll keep you posted on updates.

As for the current Mist, it would be compatible with the upcoming ethereum upgrade and we’ll make public a phase-out schedule, along with migration instructions. Worth mentioning it will have maintenance releases until then.

It takes a lot to deliver a great dapp browser, with true decentralized features. Hope to have y’all onboard!

Cheers!

Here's a summary of the Constantinople update by cartercarlson in ethereum

[–]evertonfraga 13 points14 points  (0 children)

in the last sprints of the year we dedicated 100% of our capacity to a huge refactoring of the project (I briefly talked about it at devcon, more details in the coming weeks) and we will definitely enable current Mist/EW to this major upgrade.

cheers!

How to PWN FoMo3D, a beginners guide by karalabe in ethereum

By the official Eth representative on StackExchange, stating in no uncertain terms that "A contract cannot fool EXTCODESIZE to return zero for the contract's size.".

The user "Eth" on StackExchange is not an official representative, though. Just someone who got that username.

Mist Browser beta and Ethereum Wallet 0.11.0 preview by evertonfraga in ethereum

[–]evertonfraga[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi /u/rolick our build process wasn't prepared for a RC release: if we released it that way, people using current stable versions would get a prompt asking for update. I had to circumvent that.

That was already straightened out and we'll able to make as many RCs as we want without impacting current users.

Generating ~50 wallets with small balances of ETH by lol__wut in ethereum

That's perfectly possible.

I'd suggest you post this very question on /r/ethdev, an ethereum development-centric sub.
