A recent New York Times [op-ed](https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/03/18/an-experimental-autism-treatment-cost-me-my-marriage) by John Elder Robison tells the story of his life before and after taking part in a groundbreaking experiment into using an innovative electromagnetic therapy to perhaps remediate a core disability of autism. Robison, who is on the autism spectrum had a successful career and family life, but nevertheless faced personal challenges and decided to try TMS, or transcranial magnetic stimulation, to gain greater insight into the emotional cues and nonverbal communications of other people. Researchers hoped to gain better insight into how TMS might help address these challenges. Robison hopes these insights will one day form the basis of therapies, and he experienced great rewards - even from this early stage experiment. The treatment granted him the ability to read better and feel emotions, but it was quite a ride. His marriage fell apart, and many of his personal relationships became strained for years.

And the wait will be worth it when you experience the improved LBRY daemon - it's the first major protocol update since last November, and it's a big step in the right direction.

On top of that, it brought some much needed bug fixes, wallet encryption capabilities, ability to redownload content on updated claims and updating claims with large LBC deposits (now it uses the current bid, previously you had to have the balance in your wallet to cover it). The next steps for the protocol are to significantly improve network data announcement times, speed up startup times and rewrite client/server side wallet functionality. -On the app side, the main feature was subscription enhancements which enabled in-app notifications (including alerts for new content on channels that users are subscribed to) and auto download for channels that users subscribe to.

Over time, and especially with larger volumes of uploads coming from the YouTube Sync program, we've realized this solution won't cut it anymore. Our engineers are working on a new process which would host all the blob files on a single Amazon S3 data storage server and multiple satellite nodes that would be responsible for announcing the content via the LBRY P2P protocol.

On the client side, we've begun testing the wallet migration process from the old style wallet to the new one. The old wallet included all transaction data in the default_wallet data file which was inefficient. The new wallet will store only seed and channel information in the default_wallet file, which a SQL database will store all transaction and claim information. Left on the todo list is signing claims with channel certificates and double checking that all the current API commands are implemented.

[Version 0.23.1](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/releases/tag/v0.23.1), a minor patch to re-enable ShapeShift integration, was released just over a week ago - after ShapeShift fixed a wallet issue on their end. Version 0.24.0 is just around the corner with features including -- at a minimum, the first version of wallet encryption in-app, recommended content on file pages, a document viewer, browsing history and improving the search experience. Keep reading below for a preview! On the protocol side of the house, we shipped [version 0.20.4](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/releases/tag/v0.20.4) along with the latest app release. This version brings more stability and CPU usage improvements, especially when running the daemon for extended periods of time.

Greedy search is an improvement on the original implementation of how nodes find each other on the network when looking for data. This implementation is more aggressive and should be able to traverse more peers if it can't find the content immediately, thus improving the chances of a successful download. Blob mirroring is a new feature that will accompany the P2P layer by simultaneously trying to download blobs directly from our reflector infrastructure (see more on this below). Both blob mirroring and the P2P layer will attempt to download blob files, and whichever is able to respond the quickest will complete that portion of the download. In initial tests, the P2P layer still wins out, but that will vary per user and what their connectivity to the network. ### Protocol - LBRY Reflector Hosting {#reflector} -In our [previous update](https://lbry.io/news/lbry-development-community-update-june-2018#reflector), we mentioned that LBRY's hosting infrastructure was getting a major overhaul and we've made progress towards this goal.

These blobs will be immediately available for protocol versions that use blob mirroring (0.21+) and the next step is to finish configuring the P2P layer which will make them available via the DHT. The final step will be to point the daemon at this new reflector so that any uploads from users will also go here - then we can slowly sunset the old one. +In our [previous update](/news/lbry-development-community-update-june-2018#reflector), we mentioned that LBRY's hosting infrastructure was getting a major overhaul and we've made progress towards this goal.

Most users browsing the LBRY network through one of these apps (or a future one that hasn't been created yet) don't care about a blockchain in the underbellies of the app, the same way someone watching YouTube doesn't care how http works. The technology linking this data network to these apps _is_ LBRY. Any number of apps can be built on top of LBRY, and each one can use all or a subset of the data stored on the network. -Someone can make an app on-top of LBRY entirely focused on short films, 3D printing, or astrophotography. Any website or app that facilitates the creating and sharing of content can be built on top of the LBRY protocol, and these apps can host content for free or charge a small amount of money to view said content. There are a lot of cryptocurrency projects calling themselves "decentralized" just because they have a blockchain somewhere in their stack. Most of these would probably be better off as regular centralized web apps. Check out ["Protocols not Platforms"](https://lbry.io/news/why-do-tech-giants-abuse-their-users). +Someone can make an app on-top of LBRY entirely focused on short films, 3D printing, or astrophotography.

This results in faster startup times, quicker wallet transactions including publishing (especially for smaller files) and tips, and download performance. @@ -46,15 +46,15 @@ You may have noticed a facelift in the Clarke release, but another is already in ### LBRY for Android Updates {#android} -Along with LBRY Clarke, we released a LBRY for Android update, which is available through the [Playstore](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.lbry.browser) or via [APK](http://build.lbry.io/android/latest.apk). +Along with LBRY Clarke, we released a LBRY for Android update, which is available through the [Playstore](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.lbry.browser) or via [APK](http://build.lbry.com/android/latest.apk). -Please remember, if you previously installed the APK version, you'll need to uninstall it for the Play store version to work.

The original goal was to provide a centralized service to store comments while we iterated on the user experience and researched longer term on blockchain solutions. We’ve made some progress on this solution but it still lacks the ability to sign comments with an identity and verify them on the server side. The problem with a centralized service that provides free commenting is that it’s susceptible to spam and sybil attacks. Putting comments on the blockchain is a natural deterrent to this since it requires transaction fees to be paid. But a blockchain solution also comes with it’s own pitfalls such as requiring LBC to comment, possibly waiting for block confirmations, increased transaction activity on the network, and not having the ability to fully delete a comment once it has been made. After some back and forth between these two solutions, we’ll be regrouping to see if it makes sense to proceed with the interim solution or go full blockchain! ### Blockchain Upcoming Upgrade (Hardfork) and Progress {#blockchain} -We’re excited to announce that the next LBRY Blockchain upgrade will be occurring on March 21, 2019 - you can find all the details in our [blog post](https://lbry.io/news/hf1903).

      However, LBRY does this not through a proprietary service or network, but as a protocol, or a method of doing things, much like HTTP, DNS and other specifications that make up the internet itself. Just as many different domains owned by many different companies all speak a shared language, so too can any person or company speak LBRY. No special access or permission is needed.
