 tinychain is in-development. Currently we can run a node, mine blocks, ingest them into a DAG, create and sign transactions, run a state machine, build the UXTO set from processing transactions, connect to peers and gossip.
 
-In progress: state synchronisation, user wallet API's.
+We ran our first testnet back in Aug 2024 in sprint 1. Now we are refining in preparation for testnet 2. See [PROGRESS](./PROGRESS) for the open state of different subcomponents.

 - rename Sign(msg) to accept a sighash, and then add a sighash method to tx.go
 - why is block body not being matched with block header?
