So it's based on income, is what it looks like he's pushing (validating the business model). But it's not entirely clear what the business model is. Is it just getting income off trading fees for conversions or are there others planned?

Excellent wallet, fast and reliable, GUI s great, ability to exchange coins as well.

The only thing which s missing is Factom support, hope to see this one added quite soon, hopefully during May.

Factom is definitely something coming, If you can check the releases page, you will see a screenshot of the wallet. Factom is listed there, so I believe they are currently testing it and should be available in future updates.

I honestly don't know but the trading is based on ShapeShift.io API so I doubt they are taking any fees from it. You could ask them on their slack, they are very active there.

May have to do that. ShapeShift allows for commission for those that use their API, so my assumption is this is their monetization method. But if they really need income from the project, I don't see this as being viable.

Sure, I know it s planned to be added to Exodus. I also know this delay is not due to Exodus but caused by Factom. However, there s a big difference if it s gonna be included in May or December.

Exodus officially welcomes Golem!




The new version should come out in 27th April, It's possible to check the full changelog (1.23.0): https://www.exodus.io/releases/

Never heard of this.
Is it like ethereum where it is offered as a smart contract or is it just another alt coin?

This is the first time I have heard of this.
Having support out of the blue from a big company like this should show it's value of being big in the future.
It must be something worth looking into further when i have time.
Thanks in advance for any advice/information on this new offering to the crytoworld.

You are asking about Golem or Exodus? Golem is an altcoin and It's very known, made a successful ICO and It's one of the best projects out there. As for exodus, then Its a multi-coin wallet. It didn't come from anywhere as If you check the development on the releases page, you will see that there were changelogs since late 2015.

I use exodus for less than a month, it seems an incredible wallet because you can make exchanges, I showed it on my youtube channel as doing the exchanges but I exchanged 2 btc for ethers 5 hours ago and I do not receive anything and the transaction in shapeshift Appears complete. At least the exodus service answered me quickly, they are already seeing the case but mention that it may take more than a few days to respond shapeshift. This relieves a little confidence in the project I hope they solve it quickly.

Was asking about Golem my friend.
Haven't heard of the alt coin before and have heard about the exodus project before.
Thank you for the advice on them.
Very appreciated.

no ripple?seriously?

I was gonna say exactly the same thing 

And they're not even on their roadmap...

[Ale88]

I sent them an email and I got a reply from JP:

We have no short-term plans to add Ripple. However it is an asset we'd like to add in the future. We will email you when we support it.

That would be great!

Some new major updates (Version 1.25.0):





A small updates were released on the 13th and 14th as well but Its nothing big: https://www.exodus.io/releases/

Posting here because the Public Slack has been closed to new subscribers...

So I downloaded Exodus, the 64 bit Windows "installer"... and ran it... without giving me ANY choices of any description (not even a cancel install box), it popped up a box saying "Installed, you can run from the icons"... well, ummm thanks??!?   maybe I would have liked some input into that process... #strikeOne...

Then I tried running Exodus... and it comes up with a lovely red bar telling me that it can't connect to the P2P network... clicking on the "learn more" I am presented with a web page about opening up ports... seriously??? you want me to start opening ports for a closed source app that connects to a P2P network??!? #strikeTwo...

Ok, well let's at least see if their claims for being compatible with BIP44 are true... I'll just get the seed and put it into the BIP39 Tool... Oh... no... I won't... because you can't do any backup until after your first deposit??!? I don't even get to see what my 12 word wallet seed is, until I put money in?... #strikeThree... you're out.  

For the record, I did restore a 12 word seed from another wallet... and it seems to have generated the same addresses and is showing my transaction history... so I'm guessing it is using the m/44'/0'/0'/0 derivation path like Mycelium... but I still can't use the backup as I haven't made a deposit??? Which apparently means that I can't add a password to the wallet?? So, now my restored wallet is just sitting there without a password to protect it??!?   

It also shows me the first address in the wallet, as opposed to the first "unused" address when I click receive after doing a restore.

And finally, when you uninstall the app... there are no notifications or anything... and it leaves behind all your data in the %appdata% directory... including your wallet, which I presume is not password protected or encrypted if you haven't successfully managed to run the backup process...

I sent your questions to the slack because I have access there, I will keep you updated once I get an answer (or someone from the team will answer you here).

"This user is an advanced user. They run their own nodes, etc. They are not a good fit for the choices Exodus makes. We do not target these customers and direct them to use other products. Again, to be 100% clear, Exodus is not a good choice for them and never will be. We specifically have a very opinionated process to make it as easy as possible for new users to digital assets" -- Answer by co-founder.

[HCP]

Full credit to them for being open and honest and quick to respond. They obviously have their target audience... and I'm not it, I can respect that.

Great looking wallet..

I am running the x64 client on Windows 10 but I don't have this top menu... How do I enable it?




My wallet looks like this.. no menu


This pretty much removes all settings, since the only thing that is in the "settings" menu in the life side bar, is theme choices and an option to disable coins you don't use.

The developer menu is not there by default so you need to bring it on Linux or Windows using keys: CTRL + SHIFT + D
