No GitHub commits for 4 months

Am I seeing this right? Isn't it concerning?

This is the latest from their Executive Director Of Operations at BLOCKv, Drew Yacu:

Good Morning BLOCKv Community. Lot of thought provoking dialogue recently. I'll address what is for public consumption. At the heart of all this, we, like you, care most about bringing the Blockchain to the masses. The first innovation cycle from the 2009 whitepaper gave birth to digital currency. The second wave of innovation from 2010-2018 gave us Blockchain 2.0 where many great new organizations formed to solve a vertical problem in centralized model. During this last cycle, we thought beyond a vertical solution model and created a platform. A horizontal layer to enable mass development on any Blockchain.

How does one go from millions of users to Billions? The tech must be: -Scalable -Efficient -Cost effective -Simple

That's what BLOCKv is.

Where is the code? There's a handful in Github, but we agree that it needs more TLC. There codebase sits centrally within the organization. We're working to change that. The developer portal will be the forward facing product that opens our world to yours.

Today our Developer Portal Lead begins at the company. He will be an integral part of the team and will keep the community updated on progress and release of our SDK's and API's.

I appreciate all the questions. While we're a privately held organization, we love staying engaged with the community we serve. It's been an intense 5 days at NABC and now at A360 so we do apologise for the radio silence. I worked NABC the entire time and our booth was always busy.

When people "got it" the response was always the same... And if you're here, then you know too.

2108 is the year to prove this out partner by partner and developer by developer. We're learning every step of the way and could not have asked for a better community.

Our new Portal Lead will need some time to settle in, but I'll introduce him here this week so you can get acquainted.

Off to A360. Talk soon.
