Development
Our development team has been busy at work with the Wanchain 2.0 release, scheduled for summer 2018. This release will demonstrate the cross-chain capabilities of the Wanchain blockchain with the Ethereum blockchain using Secure Multi-Party Computation.

Explorer 1.1 is being developed and will be released before May. Here are some important features to look forward to:
Streamlined UI design
Improved Breadcrumb-Navigation
Added block overview
Added token transaction details
Added Smart Contract details
Wanchain 2.0 Plan
The developers have finished engineering the design for the cross-chain functions. They will finish POC of cross-chain function before mid of April.
Cross-chain with Ethereum will be released summer 2018 as planned.
Ledger Nano Integration
Wanchain has been actively engaged with the Ledger development team to get support for WAN integrated. There is no ETA for Ledger support for WAN at this time, but we anticipate that the support will be released within the next 3 weeks.
We are extending the deadline for the token swap to 2 weeks from when Ledger will officially release the support.
