-A new UI is being designed and will soon be updated with totally new look and feel as well as added features.+As of October 13th 2021, core version 2.0 is live which creates greater ease of use and scalability: automatic bootstrapping, older block data archived, top-only sync nodes, backup and restore for trade states and minting accounts, etc. Read more here: https://qortal.org/qortal-2-0-is-here/

 +As of August 1st 2021, Qortal now supports DOGE both in local wallets and on the Trade Portal! RVN then ARRR are next prior to going to community to vote on coins to implement next. We have since decided against DGB implementation due to lack of community and lack of Electrum servers. Sponsorship system modification, voting system, and data hosting are on the priority list as well.   
 + 
 +As of June 2021, dev team is also focusing on implementing changes to the sponsorship system to combat the gaming and strengthen its integrity. Soon after, implementing more coins into the wallet/trade portal as well as data hosting will likely be next to work on (Phase 3 to begin). Voting system to be discussed.

 The mainnet Genesis block was launched on 6/29/20. The basic Trade Portal was launched on 8/6/20. BTC trades were too slow and expensive so LTC was implemented. BTC trades have been removed at this time. BTC and LTC wallets remain an on-chain feature and secure way to store these coin! Voting System is the next big development to be implemented. Then the community can vote on things like what changes to make on the Sponsorship System and what coins the Dev Team should implement next on the Trade Portal. The mainnet Genesis block was launched on 6/29/20.

 When utilizing the Qortal authentication system, a centralized service provider may allow any Qortal user to utilize their centralized service, WITHOUT the need to create an 'account' within the service itself. Any Qortal user (unless decided by the service provider to only allow certain users which is also an option by way of the existing 'groups' system) may make use of the service, without any need for any other account creation and subsequent need for remembering user/password for each individual provider (like we have with the Internet currently.) When utilizing the Qortal authentication system, a centralized service provider may allow any Qortal user to utilize their centralized service, WITHOUT the need to create an 'account' within the service itself.

 Future Options (applications and UI plugins): The options below could be built now to be utilized on the Qortal Network. These options could be built by any member of the community in coordination with the current lead developers or on behalf of a partner built for them by the current lead development team. With a small amount of effort the following ideas may be created within a short time. Future Options (applications and UI plugins): The options below could be built now to be utilized on the Qortal Network.

 Qortal-Authorized Web Apps: Should any developer decide to, they may create a web application making use of Qortal as authentication. Any application that requires authentication for users to accomplish actions within the app could utilize Qortal for said authentication. Just as the applications that make use of other blockchains do, they may make use of Qortal in a similar fashion. The application could be built without the need for registration, storage, and verification by centralized means. Qortal-Authorized Web Apps: Should any developer decide to, they may create a web application making use of Qortal as authentication.
