Developer Announcement 1/23/2022

Exponential usage rate growth combined with Cardano’s network congestion severely impacted GeroWallet’s functionality. This past week was very challenging for both our team and our users who we’d like to thank for their patience and understanding. We have managed to restore history and balance in the wallet but submission of transactions still suffers when network congestion is high. This week, we are working to provide alternative solutions and return stronger than ever. Stay tuned for more information.
