The higher you go the farther you can see ahead.

Hello everyone and welcome to the State of Aeon for September 15th, 2019. Currently, we are on track to set a fork height for the upcoming network upgrade to K12. Preliminary binaries were released from Stoffu to aid in community members testing the new code. Additional languages were added to the main website, and HitBTC re-enabled Aeon deposits & withdrawals. Let’s dig into the latest happenings in the Aeon community.

Preliminary Binaries released before tagging v0.13.0 release

Stoffu released some pre-built binaries for Aeon CLI and GUI containing most everything for the v0.13 release. All supported main operating systems are available from Stoffu. Community members can still build from master to test the new code on their specified operating system if not included in the list. Please remember to test on Testnet and Main-net. If you find any issues, please report asap on IRC, Discord, or Reddit thread.

Aeon isn’t just a currency, It’s a lifestyle.
