Hey everyone!

Welcome to weekly update 183. This week we will check the Raiden development team’s progress towards the Coruscant milestone.

​

Development progress

After the successful release of the 0.39.0 version of the smart contracts, the Raiden team focused on preparing the Raiden Light Client and Raiden Client for the upcoming release.

There was a very nice progress with the Raiden Light Client which resulted in the 2.0.0 testnet pre-release. It works with the new version of the smart contracts and contains support for the cooperative settlement.

The Raiden Client has also seen some nice progress. Progress in the Raiden Client repository can be followed here.

In the other repositories the most notable progress was done in Raiden Services where version 0.16.0 was introduced which supports new contracts and introduces a couple of very nice optimizations.

Conclusion

This is all for this week. As it was discussed in the Telegram chat, development progress is much faster after the Alderaan release. The fact that the team is working on smaller releases and not a big one with a lot of changes also helps the feeling of much faster development.

​

Cheers!
