Eh I wouldn't follow this guy behind the 5.55 bit. After all he has claimed he has 5.50 hacked privately, but only to taunt Sony with it. Any dev that baits us and gets annoyed with questions is a disgrace in my book. He said they won't burn chains " anytime soon" which is all the reason a possible release could happen during the Fall/Winter especially with the upcoming 6.00 update by Sony. The exploit is in private use thats enough to know it exists and they are holding onto it for the appropriate time to release it.Where are all these folks getting the idea that a 5.55 kernel exploit will be released any time soon? Here's some info that was divulged last month from a guy who just might know something about it:

Exactly and buying a used console on the said exploitable firmware will be expensive or worst damaged in some way. The thing is its not a question of is 5.55 hackable? it sounds more like a question of entitlement at least that's what I'm seeing on Mathieu's tweets.5.05 are not widely available anymore either, they definitely will not be by winter, especially in the US, and Japan. All new systems coming out are 5.50+, and most used retailers are now aggressively updating systems. Not saying it is impossible, but it does take some hunting around, and most likely paying full msrp, or even a premium to find one.
Is 5.55 the same as 5.50? My pro is on 5.50, I updated a week before the 5.05 came out.
I want to play my digital copy of Sonic Mania but don't want to update in case of a new exploit, but if they're the same then might as well.
Just wondering since PS4 HEN has PS2 emulation and my PS4 is 5.55.
I beleieve it's coming out in December, maybe early 2019. So just wait for it.... Wink
he winked..Don't randomly list estimate time of release when there isn't one.
I dont think they will release another hack until some more big games come out, like maybe spider-man and red dead redemption 2.

Hope that spiderman pushes the release
