I wish we had this (Universal Wallet)

UNIVERSAL WALLET BENEFITS

MEMORY PROBLEM IS A MYTH

I alone run 9 or so clients with no memory and completely no problem,
therefore a universal client is possible. And also the person below.

Trying to run 8 different cryptocurrency blockchains off of one HDD would pretty much necessitate a dedicated computer for the purpose, or at the very least, a dedicated HDD.

If all OP is looking for is a wallet that displays the balance of each type of currency along with market details that shouldn't be so complicated or as resource-intensive as you say.

My laptop uses Windows 7 64-bit with 3 gigs of RAM and it currently runs my BTC, LTC, NMC, PPC, LQC, IXC, I0C and TRC (a total of clients all at the same time. The amount of space used on my 350 GB HDD has been fairly negligent (maybe 10 - 12 gigs in total) and still has plenty of resources left for browsing the internet, streaming HD movies on Netflix, listening to music, etc... Hell, I even have an instance of minerd running 24/7 on that laptop... Pretty much the only thing I might have problems with are resource-intensive 3d applications or music production software...

And as far as adding market details, that should be fairly low-intensive as well since it would all be handled by api, which shouldn't use much in the way of system resources...

Alternative cryptocurrency value increase

-The access to all coins in one wallet would increase the likeliness
of someone experimenting or generally using these. As now
people don't want to bother with the hassle of having 10 different clients.

Easier to use and more manageable

-Great for targeting a larger audience and for the success of bitcoin and/or alternative cryptocurrencies,

-Ultimately this leads to a single client that does everything, and the no need of any extra clients,
it would thus contain a miner section, linking to all wallets, etc. This would for the future
benefit Bitcoin, and make it easier for the general population. And its also beneficial to us,
it would be nice to have this all in one client wouldn't it be?

UNIVERSAL WALLET FEATURES

-Contain the balance of bitcoin and alternative crypto-currencies, the single universal wallet program
would associate with all of them.

-The contain of market pricing, and the know of each value

-The contain of a mining section, and a drop down box, of work-size, miner types, pools, etc.
It would then mine from the single universal client.

-There would be a profit section, and a graph, and a electric graph.
You input your power usage, card type and power usage, and a
graph that shows what's your profit rates.

There was a request for a bounty for a multicoin client:


I suggest 6 then 3 shares, any objections?

I support this also, this would be optimal.

Example: (Do note: The below numbers aren't accurate, this is a representation of what a universal wallet
may look like. The miner tab isn't there, and market tabs, a lot of photo-shopping precision, and time consuming,
hopefully with these two pictures below you understand fully the implications of a universal wallet.)

universal bump, and post update

Sound like a great idea. I hope someone with the necessary skills can pull it off.

Do we really need like 5 threads of this Universal Wallet, first off, the amount of memory it would consume to keep the blockchains up to date, just while idling would be the biggest turn off. It is a bad idea stop spamming about it.

First of all, you are quite wrong I alone is running close to 9 different ones including him below,
and it hardly uses anything. If anything it be nicer to have it all integrated into one application.
Second of all its 3 threads and not 5.

Doesn't the multibit client do this all now?

[joe992af]

I think Ufasoft Coin does BTC,BTC-Testnet,LTC,Solidcoin and some others. But I think Ufasoft's client is a little crude. I think something that has LTC,BTC, and BTC-Testnet would be good.

It is still annoying and no one cares, it is 3 people and I doubt you have 9 different ones and you don't have issues with ram unless you have like 8gb of ram, and i7 core still then you will have issues, trust me.

first of all, it uses 170 MB of ram, so 170X9= ~1GB at most.
Second of all I have more then 3 people, I have about 2 pages full of responses.
And a DVC bounty being set up. You only checked this one.
But there's one on alternative crypto section.

if lets say your right, it can be made with 5 mains, BTC,LTC,NMC,DVC,PPC.
And scrap the rest. This would work as well and even potentially better.
