Wallet looks identical to SDC wallet!



Which has encrypted chat, ring sigs already

Yes, SPEC is based on SDC and uses the same tech. This is a very good platform to work from and to develop the mobile platform for alternative remittance. If you read the website, it does in fact state that SPEC is based on SDC and it explains why. Nothing to strange about that, 90% of all cryptos are based on previous ones, to expand and take in a different direction. SDC is based on Bitcoin but they have developed a HTML wallet that is perfectly suited to our ultimate goal.

We have never tried to obscure that...what is your point?

The anonymity is the biggest feature here that's going to attract some big players. I know there are other cryptocurrencies out there with real anonymous transactions but this looks far superior.

No it doesn't. It looks like SDC with the logo changed.

Again, yes, it is based on SDC in the same way as, say Litecoin is based on Bitcoin etc. etc. so that is why so many crypto wallets look the same. This is a feature of open source, to develop and change. This project will take it in a different direction and make changes. I don't know why you find it strange that one crypto is based on another. This has been the case for years. Maybe there aren't so many that are based on SDC.

ED: and it's a bit more than just a logo as I am sure you know. Why do you think there are so few SDC clones?

I don't have a problem with that at all. But to say it looks "far superior" to other anon currencies is completely inane given that, for now at least, it's a straight clone of SDC.

You are right..it's just a copy paste of SDC or better called a Photoshop.
Scam alert: font invest in this shitcoin, because OP's account is purchased one.
OP IS ALT OF Engg.Chaks.
Any money spent by users will be considered as donation.

Why is it a problem to use a platform which is already available to create a new one.

Established altcoins are a great starting platform and they already contains a lot of features. The developers can build upon it and make their coin superior to the original coin.
 Would you also say that Burstcoin and HZ are scam coins, because they are built on NXT?
 The same goes for Bitcoin Unlimited, Bitcoin Classic and all other implementations.

You will also have to show proof of the statement below:

Just wondering whether you intend to also develop a marketplace and integrate tor and i2p as they are evident in the wallet or if you intend to copy code as and when SDC team release theirs.

Good choice of coin but just weary of intentions. I hope you can understand

The Tor and I2P, yes for sure, once the initial release is out. There is no issues with tracking SDC with the market place but it is also possible that the 'market place' tab will be replaced by something else. The main purpose here is to get a mobile platform for remittance using SPEC. There should be an announcement soon with a road map for this. Maybe 2-3 days. That is really the main purpose.

Will it be open source or will it be closed off for the time being? (Dont know if its open source and the site didnt provide a repo link but couldve overlooked it)

[mandica]

Will it be open source or will it be closed off for the time being? (Dont know if its open source and the site didnt provide a repo link but couldve overlooked it)

Yes, the plan is roughly:
1. Finalise the code and generate the initial 20 mill. SPEC
2. Open the GitHub repo to the public, so yes it will be open source, just not until the code is finalised.
3. Release Windows Qt, Mac Qt and Linux Qt
4. A pre-alpha "blueprint" of the Spectre.Cash alternative remittance mobile platform will be presented.
5. More information on the team will be released.

This will be completed ahead of the start of the ICO, so you will be able to review the source and download the wallets.

Distribution will commence immediately after the end of the ICO.

Exchanges will be contacted as we are progressing through to distribution.

6. Spectre.Cash alternative remittance mobile platform will continue to be developed. The app will not be open source until after the app has been released into the "wild".
7. The app will only be using SPEC for transfers.

So far they don't have social media bounties but just wait for it. But you can support their signature campaign by enrolling it and wearing their signature code as I wear it and a participant of its signature campaign. And you can just simply visit the signature campaign thread here -

Thanks for the awesome and insightful contribution. But, no, no shit, just a brilliant coin with some mobile infrastructure to go with it.

@Op, why this thread is self moderated?
and why people calling you alt of eng.chaks?

[Arrakeen]

Sent a reply back to OP about the community manager position.

Also curious - if this is going to be an ICO, what are the generated funds being allocated towards?

Many projects (most recently BASH) proposed ridiculous ICO requests with no explanation as to why the money was needed.

Cheers!

I'm pretty sure the thread is self moderated, because mandica didn't want accusations made against him in this thread. They should be made in another one and you should post appropriate feedback on his trustpage.

Mandica has deleted one comment from FriendlyChemist. FriendlyChemist was so "friendly" and posted the exact same on here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1678323.msg16856369#msg16856369.
He is also the one calling Mandica an alt of eng.chaks.

I'm pretty sure you get the idea behind self moderation now.

In @OP it was stated what the money was going to be used for.

This will raise funds to fully develop the anonymous peer-to-peer payment / money transfer network Spectrecash

I'm pretty sure it will also be used to pay bounties and jobs like community manager.
