Even the block chain is a centralized in that all the information is in a single ledger; and because all the information is in one place, I can know everything that has happened and is happening.
IMO having a single blockchain (working with a single proof mechanism) is a "single point of failure" so that is why AT has been designed to be bolted on to different blockchains. Also I will presenting a new type of "proof" which I have been very busily working on (am getting some math analysis done before I publish anything) which will be part of a platform for creating blockchains and blockchain applications. Sounds great! |

I will make a vote thread tomorrow.
Did you do? Here is the new thread for the vote, we would be using the voting system within the Qora wallet obviously https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=900250.msg9895632#msg9895632I have paid out of my own pocket to get this done. Anyone interested in donating a small portion of the cost please send it to QMTpgv26GMAt9JCBnXBpSEUVLSB7MHkq35 Like them all, voted for #1 but would be happy with any @ PondSea - what do you mean that you paid for them: mockups, development, vote poll? I thought that there was a bounty for wallet development. Also, it appears that Qora will not develop the wallet now (initially Qora intended to do this). Has he confirmed that he will not do this? Sorry for all the Qs just trying to keep up, thanks. Edit: It's really amazing Qora has voting poll...the only p2p crypto with this feature afaik. Congrats Qora....keep up the awesome work! Sorry i should be clear. I have paid 1 BTC to Bitcrea to make the template for the wallet. We would still need Qora or VBCS to assist with the integration of it. Basically i wanted them to do what they do best which is to code and have all the images/stuff provided so they could compile the new looking wallet. |

I have just used the Qora wallet to create a vote for the new wallet design. I have put up a vote in the Qora wallet called "real wallet design vote" as i stupidly created the original poll with 1 option  The option with the most votes as of Jan 1st GMT will be the winner. Layout 1.  Layout 2.  Layout 3.  I have paid out of my own pocket to get this done. Anyone interested in donating a small portion of the cost please send it to QMTpgv26GMAt9JCBnXBpSEUVLSB7MHkq35 |

Think I like this one best, but the third one is good too. Nice work. I also think #1 is the best. The green logo in the background looks really bad on all of them though. I dont know if you are joking or not but that is a water mark. That will be removed. |

Since I am unable to respond to the IM's to more than 10 users (I guess it's a BCT limitation), here is the message I attempted to send.
As I stated in an email to PondSea and briefly mentioned to Qora, when it comes to the wallet, I think a simple option that will boost overall community size would be a customizable wallet. Basically, a wallet should support skinning/themes. This will allow any user to put a personal touch on their wallet based on what they find important. Whether that be their favorite sporting team, a band or musician, relatives or a subject. This little niche concept would accomplish 2 things, 1, It allows Qora users to buy and sell a service that pertains only to Qora, additionally, it would have a significant effect on growing the user base. I agree that a customizable wallet will probably be best but it would take dev work im guessing? I think it is best to get something out there first, a change from what it currently is then get that new function in when AT is done. |

Here are some mock ups for you. What does the community think of these? I prefer the 3rd one.    |
|
|
|
Does this means ture anonymous? When the AT network has heaps of different coins and lots of transactions, maybe. |
|
|
|

Well for Qora dev it would be AT then wallet upgrades. But since it is open source anyone can help by my hiring programmers or asking friends who are programmers to get into Qora .
We need someone that can write articles to submit to news sites after AT is done (1~2 weeks)

That is what you want to see. Did the client app launch?
Now I see this, the app launch, but red button saying no connections. : INFO: Peers retrieved from database : 0 dec 12, 2014 3:46:30 AM b.f aV INFO: Peers retrieved after settings : 0 dec 12, 2014 3:47:30 AM b.f aV INFO: Peers retrieved from database : 0 dec 12, 2014 3:47:30 AM b.f aV INFO: Peers retrieved after settings : 0 dec 12, 2014 3:48:30 AM b.f aV INFO: Peers retrieved from database : 0 dec 12, 2014 3:48:30 AM b.f aV INFO: Peers retrieved after settings : 0 Qora said this: You don't have a settings file with known peers or it can't access the settings. What to do??  Do you have settings.json in your folder? |

Guys, hold your coins in your own wallets, something's up. Don't trust Poloniex OR BTER.
Ive sent traded and withdrawn on BTER in the last hour, zero problems. You scaremongering? I had withdrawn qora from bter a week ago. I didnt check it but it was not sent. When i asked what was going on they cancelled the withdrawal. I just tried withdrawing today and got it within 5 mins. So maybe they did have a issue but seems to be resolved. |

AT should be in test net in 1~2 weeks so road ahead looks great |

If you might be interested in working with something new, PM me and I'll tell you my top-secret killer app project. I need to tell someone. I'm tired of being silent, even if I never finish this thing.
I will tell you my idea which can be easily deployed on top of Qora and serve us all. As I said in my previous post, by using Jetty (i.e. to deploy a web app ) you can have an HTML based app which interacts directly with Qora wallet via API. Then by using a base58 encoder / decoder you can store content to block chain and retrieve it as well.So actually this can be the base for a decentralized web.You can encode / decode HTML content from blockchain. Actually this is just a first approach on this concept which can really exist on top of Qora.A more advanced development on this would be needed in order to have this one more efficient (i.e. a customized language for "compressing" HTML tags ). But a microblogging platform would be a much more easier approach to start working on this concept. do it!! |

@Qora i know the wallets are not public now but if we were to get someone to work on a new wallet design would you provide that to them privately?
The current GUI is build in Swing. Everything should be reevaluated and rewritten in something more suitable. What would be better than Swing? My vote is a separate http servlet, serving static pages. I know this is what Nxt does but it's easy to do and easy to make beautiful. +1 Jetty can do that, and is already on QoraIf I recall correctly, Nxt does implement the servlet through Jetty but the pages are dynamic through JavaScript. JavaScript (JQuery for example) can server dynamic content. Here is a tutorial on how to make a simple jetty web app.This could be a good starting point for creating a wallet.Then the JQuery will make API calls to Qora wallet and an HTML wallet can be real. Then Bootstrap can be integrated as well to make the HTML wallet more "fancy". We can start a Git repo for that and start the deployment of this "wallet" EDIT : Also here is a more experienced block explorer for Qora which is based on Node.js. This one can be used as well to develop a wallet based on Node.js I have pledged 1 btc to get a nice looking wallet design made by bitcrea. How would doing this method instead of the current wallet skin chnage how he should design the wallet? |

I am in the process of asking Bitcrea to make a new wallet design for Qora.
I will be donating some BTC and or Qora to this task but is anyone in the community wanting to donate for this task?
