Milestones
We have achieved some really exciting milestones so far.
Join us and be part of our future developments!
As an open-source community and volunteer-driven project, we are constantly implementing, reviewing and re-evaluating technologies and features to make Verge into one of the best Currencies out there.
To that end, it doesn't make sense to be setting roadmaps which might be irrelevant by the time they're published, so instead see what we have achieved so far!
