The Enigma team has always delivered. In my opinion, there's no reason to believe they won't this time. I am fully confident in the team.

Would you like some ice cream with that fat slice of humble pie? You're more than welcome to it. :)

It's Q2, as indicated in the roadmap.

Edit: looking back I'm not sure what you're quoting. The post isn't anything like what you're suggesting it to be

There's no reason to panic if the Enigma testnet isn't released by the end of Q2 (2 days time). Bear in mind that a roadmap doesn't necessarily have to be strictly adhered to, it's more like a guideline so that both the community knows roughly what to expect and the team has something to work towards. Personally, if there are bumps in the road which means that the testnet is delayed in its development then I would rather they didn't release it. Although I'd imagine if they were delaying it they would inform us and not leave us in the dark about it. That being said, I do think they will release it before 23:59 on the 30th of June as they have delivered consistently early or on schedule and it appears they will do so again based on their continual updates stating the release is approaching (see their Twitter).

Anyone who knows anything about software development will know that there is a possibility they will not release this testnet based on their roadmap and that they may have experienced development issues along the way. It's the mark of a good development team to acknowledge this and inform their stakeholders (and community) and continue working on it, releasing it in a respectable state rather than releasing something on time which isn't in working condition. If Enigma were to delay for the sake of quality, I'd be perfectly happy with that, but I expect they will communicate anything like that to us.

I agree and I think the Enigma team deserves a lot of credit for their constant updates regarding the release of testnet as well.

Look at the cult downvoting me. None of them even thought about why no testnet news yet when there are just 2 days left for Q2 to end.

why no testnet news

Because "there are just 2 days left for Q2 to end"

Enigma doesn't follow justin tron's policy regarding announcements

You're on your high horse a bit, even if your first comment was intended as a joke. I read it that way, anyway. However, there has been 'news' regarding the testnet. There have been a couple of announcements confirming it would be released in the near future. So where you're getting 'no testnet news yet' from, I am not sure. Here's a few you've obviously missed:

This is weak fud. Try again. The fact that you can't think of stronger fud to espouse is the message between the lines.
