The Market Falls; the Interface Work Continues

The chain team was working toward an internal testnet version it could demonstrate in May. BTC fell below USD 28,000, hurting leveraged long positions. The team kept its attention on the work needed for a demonstrable version and did not adjust its plans in response to the market move.

The chain team was working toward an internal testnet version it could demonstrate in May. A-Zhen was handling interface issues. When the market suddenly weakened, some people in the group worried that the development schedule might be thrown off too.

BTC fell below USD 28,000, hurting leveraged long positions. A-Zhen heard several price alerts at her desk, but asked her colleagues to spell out the unresolved steps between the game and chain interfaces before deciding what to change first. The price swings did not alter the day's development work.

The team kept its attention on the work needed for a demonstrable version and did not adjust its plans in response to the market move. Still, getting an interface to work once did not mean every action would go smoothly. A-Zhen planned to keep checking the points where players might get stuck.
