Hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd is continuing the hype for his upcoming iOS 12 jailbreak on Friday as he inches closer to dropping the first public beta.

The Sileo Team has been hard at work this week, renovating the Sileo beta preview and its various dependencies for optimal performance on devices that have been jailbroken using Electra.
