The Reaction of a Cardano Community Member and Charles Hoskinson’s Response
A community member reacted to the development with excitement, sharing his experience with the newly released Daedalus Flight Candidate 5.
He wrote, “Wow! Looking ROCK SOLID. Just started the stop watch from a completely empty appdata folder (Win 10, i9 beast). Now 5% after 2mins and that includes clicking ticks for wallet imports and having them import.”
Hoskinson responded thus:
“We should have at least two Flight releases a month now adding new features and functionality like wallet merging and ledger support. Keep testing and enjoy.”
