Not for a while. Sharding is a long ways off, and until then we'll be focusing on getting Ethereum v1 tests to pass in our full node mode. The full node will be ready in 2019, but the super-light implementation might take longer.
|
Soon. We've got some network simulations already running for [Ethereum 2.0](https://out.status.im/tag/two-point-oh), and we're syncing up to block 50000 on Ethereum 1.0. To stay in the loop, please follow our development updates on [our blog](https://our.status.im/tag/nimbus).

A Web3js or any similar JavaScript package for communicating with the blockchain is basically a more advanced XMLHttpRequest / Fetch wrapper. What we mean by this is that these packages retrieve information from another node and trust it implicitly. They ask "has this transaction been confirmed?" and get a response that's either "yes" or "that transaction is unknown". With light nodes, they ask "give me the data to check if this transaction has been confirmed" and then check on their own. This is a trust-minimized setup which combines the best of both worlds - very little storage and processing power required while allowing for cryptographic verification of the full node's claims.

### Q: What's the plan for mobile? You speak of deploying to mobile devices, but Nimbus only compiles to C, C++ and JavaScript and iOS and Android don't support C natively. Will you be compiling to JS and deploying with a web wrapper? That doesn't sound performant!

Native compiles with Nim work for both Android and iOS, just like geth written in go works. It's all NDK/C API. We'll soon have published specific instructions on how to compile it for all manner of devices.

While true that Nimbus only compiles to C, C++ and JavaScript and iOS and Android don't support C natively (and we definitely don't want a JS version of Nimbus running on a mobile device), native compiles with Nim work for both Android and iOS, just like geth written in go works. It's all NDK/C API. We'll soon have published specific instructions on how to compile it for all manner of devices, but you can already give it a go by following the [build instructions](/docs/building.html).
