Post by: Wallety on January 18, 2017, 09:31:16 PM
Good day,

We are developing a missing thing, the accessible wallet for cryptocurrencies: Wallety

The cryptocurrencies is for everyone, not just those who see and move well. We building open source wallets and other solutions for inclusion, rather than exclusion, increases access for people of all abilities

Usable wallet for blind, visually impaired and disabled users.

This is definitely a great concept but how exactly do you plan on making a wallet for the blind/visually impaired?
How would that work? If you could find a way then you'll be sure to get a lot of media attention as this idea is pretty unique!
On a side note, your site looks pretty good but there are quite a few grammatical mistakes which could do with some improvement.

Thanks for your reply.
We are working on the UI now.
This is the first, and most important thing in this project.
We will happy if other developers will implement our UI to his wallets.
The first version will be available soon on Github.

Wow, the idea is really great. Honestly, I never thought of having an exclusive wallet for disabled users especially for the blind ones. I saw the list of your plans in phase 1 and 2. You have a broad concept, how big is your team? It will be a long term project indeed but if it will be successful, it will be really awesome and one of a kind. Good luck  :)

Thanks for your words. The team is small, only four person.
We have a roadmap without deadlines, because this project isn't a full-time job for us.
We spend our free times for this, now, however its not a "hobby project".

You are all devs?
Well, yes the project shouldn't have deadline because it is also a continuous development. As of now I don't have an idea on how to help you but maybe when you already launched the project in the future. I'll be watching this thread for updates. Thanks

It will be bring bitcoin to worldwide, everyone with every they have can use and have bitcoin, this is great idea. I'm curious about how the interface looks like.

How your plan to security works? I just think the security system uses finger print and pattern for who can use a braille.

Thanks, we are happy, because lot of people says, this is a good idea.
We don't want to change the security process. Input with keyboard or fingertip reader.
Braille printer will be only output for paper wallet.
Now we cant use braille display, because its very expensive, but maybe in the future...

I think this project is a really great project. How basically it would be safe to open the wallet, would you have to example tell the password outloud?
I think that, there should be a way better way to access the wallet than that. What are your plans for this in future?

Hi there Wallety,

Great idea and am very surprised this hasn't already been a feature of some wallets. I'd like to offer my help with your website content (it seems difficult to open at the moment?), specifically just fine-tuning your language and grammar. I've PM'd you, feel free to respond if you want to accept!

Linking the github would be possibly good for any downtimes for the website, just saying.
Is there a roadmap to this or? I would love to be a beta tester, if you guys have something like that going on :)
