Tari 2022 – A new year

In the last post, we shared some highlights of 2021. In this post, I’ll briefly share what the Tari developers
are working on and expect to roll out on Tari over the coming few months.

We’re going to be launching a new testnet, Dibbler, with all the latest bells and whistles in a few weeks.

Tari Launchpad
Firing up your piece of the Tari ecosystem can be tricky right now. Do you want to run a node? A wallet? Both?
With or without Tor? With SHA-3 mining? On a pool, or standalone?
Each of these Tari subsystems must be configured and set up to talk to each other. There are also dozens of different settings
one can tweak. Getting this all going can be time-consuming.
This is why we’ve started working on the Tari Launchpad. When it’s done, the launchpad will have you running a node, wallet or
miner in one or two clicks.
There’s already a primordial prototype that runs on Linux and Mac. It’s available in

The design and development of a beautiful front-end for the launchpad has just kicked off.
MainNet
