I'll to leave some of my thoughts/ideas here. They don't have to go to 2.38, and some not even in 2026 H2.
But I'd love to see us doing this kind of stuff.
Sharing in the order smaller -> bigger.
Ideas highlights
Developer experience:
nimbus-build-systemAnnoying long-standing issues
KeycardPopup#17404Small but nice features:
Reincarnate existing features:
Embedded privacy-preserving updates notifications
There is
services/updatesservice in backend. I'm not fully sure how it works, but it usesdesktop.stateofus.ethENS name to retrieve a URL, and then the version is fetched from this URL using an HTTP client.Using HTTP here is not super privacy-preserving, but still good enough. We could use it, or maybe implement a simple smart contract that Status App would read.
ENS — ensure full support.
Getting and releasing, binding existing ENS names, monitoring expire date.
Maybe add more features like syncing gravatar, bio and other profile info.
Big features:
Long-term vision
I believe that Status is not just a messenger or a wallet. But it's a synergy of both.
There will always be fancier wallets. But none of them have messenger. And the opposite.
Therefore, the focus should be on features utilizing both, like Token-gated communities and Multisigs. These are the features that we should develop. And any tasks to ensure we have a reliable foundation to deliver new features quickly.
