20 October was a busy day across XMR20. The community Telegram opened, the historical Mordinals gallery arrived on the main website, and the native market release brought the website, services and wallet together.
Alongside those milestones, we worked on the practical details: keeping wallet actions in one popup, saving scan progress, and carrying earned holding points forward. Here is what we were building and sharing that day.
A place to meet the XMR20 community
20 October
The XMR20 community Telegram opened on 20 October, and the project owner joined the group. It gives people another place to follow the work, ask questions and discuss ideas with other community members.
The announcement focused on updates about the wallet, bridge, inscriptions and what we are building next. That is the kind of conversation we want these daily updates to support: enough detail to understand the work, with a place to ask about it.
This is the community discussion group. It is separate from the Telegram launch bot and its wallet functionality.
What we checked
The project owner confirmed the community opening on 20 October. The invitation below was shared with that announcement.
Historical Mordinals arrive on xmr20.org
20 October
The historical Mordinals gallery moved onto the main XMR20 website. Visitors can browse the archive from the index, search for inscriptions and open individual records without moving to a separate explorer.
The gallery was refined throughout the day: compact, consistent cards show the name and inscription number, with 28 records per page. Opening a record reveals the original Monero transaction and block links, date, file information and content hashes. The Art and Tokens views remain available alongside it.
We also worked on the loading experience. Archive requests can run in parallel, brief caching avoids unnecessary repeat work, and images begin loading earlier.
Search controls and content visibility also received attention, with keyboard and touch access and a deliberate View content control for selected previews. Together, these improvements make the historical archive easier to explore on desktop and mobile.
What we checked
The publication record includes 117 source tests, staged and live file checks, working inscription details and API/media checks. Desktop and 390px mobile browsing were checked. The release preserved the existing wallet and other website routes.
The native market release comes together
20 October
The coordinated native release brought the market interface, compatible services and wallet package together. The public market showed the EXTREMIST/XMR pair and a Monero-wallet connection flow.
The native path is designed for Monero-only token sends and whole-lot trades, starting with EXTREMIST. Native recipients use a Monero wallet. Holders of previously linked tokens choose when to approve the one-time conversion into the native path.
The optional Solana bridge uses its disclosed single-operator trust model. Settlement requires ten Monero confirmations, with the wallet guiding users through preparation and approval.
Release checks confirmed interface and service availability, and an isolated Solana VM and Monero test-chain environment exercised a complete round trip. Funded mainnet validation is the next acceptance milestone.
What we checked
The coordinated release completed at 15:34 BST on 20 October. All 70 selected live website file checks passed, along with native status and offer-book checks. The extension package was installed locally as version 0.1.66 at that point; further wallet revisions followed later in the day.
Fewer steps, one wallet popup
20 October
Much of the wallet work came directly from using the new flows. Native sends, conversion and bridging back were brought into the existing wallet popup, with Back and Cancel controls kept reachable. Token actions were simplified to Send above Bridge.
Amount fields start empty with a grey 0 placeholder. Max remains visible and preserves the exact underlying amount, even when the displayed balance is shortened. Previously bridged tokens received clearer wording, and their required setup appears before asking for a recipient or amount.
By the end-of-day 0.1.77 development package, ready forms had one primary Send or Bridge action. Setup and network costs were explained before approval, with progress and controls kept visible in short popup layouts.
Scanning work focused on saving progress, reusing healthy connections and resuming after reopening the wallet. Conversion Max keeps exact amounts beneath the compact display. This work laid the foundation for the next day’s checkpoint and reopening improvements.
What we checked
The locally installed 0.1.77 development build passed 508 extension tests and isolated packaged-popup checks covering exact Max, repeat-click protection, saved transaction history and short-screen layouts. The checks focused on development workflows; funded mainnet acceptance is a separate milestone.
Earned holding points stay earned
20 October
The rewards update focused on cumulative holding credit. Previously earned points carry forward, and each new verified period adds its own contribution.
Price and holding-multiplier changes apply to new earning periods. Periods with incomplete history remain pending until they can be checked, while saved credit is retained.
The updated leaderboard was published on 20 October using the confirmed 19 October balance snapshot. It brings cumulative holding credit together with the existing balances and social activity records.
What we checked
The rewards release passed 99 tests and checks of the published page and data. It retained 852 holder balances, existing social evidence and a saved holding ledger for future refreshes.
