Hi everyone, as we are getting closer to launch we are due to deliver a refined product both visually and technically, so for that reason we focused this month on upgrading the long-overdue Mobile pages and adapt a Platform Mobile Application that has been finalized this month.
IN THIS UPDATE: Mobile Development / Smart Contract / Blockchain / Platform / BE Devs / Marketing / Stipend UserInterface Team / Listings.
We are sad to announce that due to some involuntary delays the Bridge will be taking 1 more month to deliver, we are expecting progress reports during this upcoming week and we will post it in real time over to Discord and Twitter.
1.Mobile Development
We are are glad to announce that the team finished the first iteration of the Mobile Platform Application (Native React Expo). Let’s note that the Mobile application is dependant on the Native Platform Web application (Data & Views) This is why we focused on fixing the Mobile pages through the whole platform.
We can launch the Mobile platform App right now but it would show the same data as the current platform so we are waiting to finish the couple last details before putting it through both store IOS & Android.

2.Bridge
The Stipend Bridge was expected to be shipped late june, but due to events out of our control we pushed the deadline to late July. Thank you for your understanding!
We will update the community in real-time on any progress made on the Bridge to avoid information leaks.
3. Platform
The main item on the menu for the platform was Mobile views and fixes along side some minor BE bug fixes and the introduction of a new BE dev to the team we will be sharing more about this upcoming week.
Platform Mobile Page Fixes:
With the development of the Stipend Mobile Platform the Stipend Platform needed to be finally Mobile Ready, we spent the month fixing and reworking all the pages of the platform to be adaptable to all mobile devices.

Blockchain / Wallet (Upgrade)
Casey had a lot of work done on the new Wallet, we are still waiting for the clears to announce the new wallet update. But so far work has been study without any major incidents.
New Back End Team
Abdessamad joined us on the back-end development part of the application. He is proefficient with nodeJS, sockets and SQL/Mongo. He will be working on all the mechanisms and features that will make the application unique.
We’ll have synergies working with people already on-boarded and our full time FE to accelerate the development of the app.
Mainly the focus is on reworking the authentification, help ending the SQL migration and code/develop/upgrade current codebase for more complex schemes. Once everything will be working and tasks will become even more complex like payment module implementation (after SQL reworking), he will integrate this task force as well.
New Marketing
Our marketing team is expanding for the challenges ahead and has three more talented and highly motivated people who know how to get things done and, the most important, have their own vision of how to reach it. Currently, the marketing team is working to discover Stipend competitors, both direct and indirect, to determine our weaknesses for improvement, as well as our main strengths. Immediately after the release of the platform, the marketing team will have a substantial responsibility to promote the project, and we are preparing for this in the most serious way. We plan to build a unique and effective product promotion system.
We will be able to introduce our new members to you very soon.
New UI/UX Team
The UI team has been working on reworking most of the views elliminating redandancy and improving navigation and user experience overall. You can follow up the work done in real time through this link :
4. Listings
Several days ago Stipend was listed on the MH Hosting https://mymasternodes.host/, so you now have another way to host your Masternode for a reasonable price.
Also, other negotiations are underway on mutually beneficial cooperation both for exchanges and for other services, we will keep you informed as soon as official agreements are reached.
5. Conclusion
The team has been hard at work. More work should go towards refactoring / security and blockchain integrations for Stipend. But overall we are getting everyday closer to the launch day.
Thanks again for all the support you’ve shown!
Stipend Core Team
