Looking at a comparison of BitBean-Vault and Sprouts-Wallet, I see no resemblance what-so-ever, with BitBean the new Digital Crypto-Currency, and "Sprouts" the coin.
The BitBean Wallet (being re-branded as a "Vault") synchronizes and loads it's block chain (that can hold up to 20MB per block)--without a config file or manually adding any nodes.

BitBean Wallet (being re-branded as "
the Bean Vault")
Stick with the bean ... please don't forget the bean.
BitBean is the brand ... "the BEAN vault" is also a clever nickname.
Yes sprouts is a little 'associated with' beans via the words "bean and sprout" ... but it is not a big deal ... and that other coins brand is more associated with the word 'seeds' specifically seeds turning into sprouts.
So please be careful with brand as it is because it is mostly perfect as it is.
Now the next step in having a solid tech management team, aka devs.
All in all I think BITB is a very good wallet/algo/network. And I am impressed with the new version. Not much more is need other than maintenance and minor updates ... BITB may never need a fork ... that is awesome.
Next is just to get a bit smarter and more educated on the topic of the business of building up the brand (marketing) which brings new sprouts of growth to the BEAN community.
Where I see concern, as an outsider and potential investor is that the management team, aka devs, seem unskilled in customer realations/sales/marketing. Post #927 is an absolute violation of even loose expectations of a community manager, and requires swift response.
Delegate the non-tech tasks to others with good business and social senses.
Drop the 'insider club' pump-n-dump approach. What worked in the past won't work in the future. Get mature.
