2025 and April 2026 VEIL CATCHUP

Since the demise of TradeOgre, NonKYC Exchange is now Veil's only exchange. NonKYC.io is a great ecosystem, but the Veil community needs to expand to DEXes such as BasicSwap DEX. Veil's market data is available on several data aggregators, but is missing from two popular ones currently. The VEIL light wallet continues to allow people to hold their own Veil without having to host a full node wallet, but Veil is now also on the Zelcore wallet. Staking and mining multiple algos continue without fail. The Veil community would benefit from new developers and volunteers looking for opportunites with leadership potential.Tips and incentives paid in Veil may apply.

The VEIL light wallet continues to allow people to hold their own Veil without having to host a full node wallet. Staking and mining multiple algos continue without fail. Opportunities for developers and volunteers to support the private transactions Veil community are available. Some incentive rewards apply.
