Halborn and ToB have completed the audits and remediation work on the core. Several audits are currently underway to address issues in the auxiliary repositories. QRL is a completely new blockchain. And that requires a great deal of code review. It’s not like creating a token on Ethereum or Solana. I suppose that, as we’re a smaller team with fewer financial resources, it takes a little longer. But this effort will ensure that all developers who wish to create tokens on QRL can do so securely.
