Title: Can Armory support altCoin-qt wallets (TRC, FC, LTC, etc)? Post by: SpaceCadet on April 25, 2013, 11:18:39 PM While BTC is still the king-of-the-hill, there are a number of altCoins popping up these days that often use the same core code for their wallets (since they have essentially the same structure). Can Armory support these as a mix of 'wallets'?

Can Armory support these as a mix of 'wallets'? I've offered to give folks advice on how to adapt Armory, though only one person has really tried. A lot of coins may only need changing some constants. And in the case of LTC, updating a hash function. I know there will be some other hurdles, but it may not be a ton of code. It's just that alt-currencies are nowhere near the top of my priority list. Title: Re: Can Armory support altCoin-qt wallets (TRC, FC, LTC, etc)?

That's good to be aware of -- and points out another area of crypto-currencies to add my list of things to investigate for my own edification.

Look at Ufasoft (http://ufasoft.com/coin/) which attempts to do exactly that. One wallet that is used across multiple chains, and tracks each balance individually. I don't know much about it (never used it), but it sounds like exactly what you just requested. Also discussion about it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=58821.0 Title: Re: Can Armory support altCoin-qt wallets (TRC, FC, LTC, etc)?
