Development plan for this upcoming yearLite wallet - With over 3 years of transactions stored in our current Windows, MAC, and Linux wallets, the download takes several hours. So to make it easier and faster for our new users, we are developing a wallet that only stores recent transactions. Of course all transactions are still available in our full wallet for those who want them. And of course, the Lite wallet will continue to include our built-in pool mining.
Improved iPhone wallet - A simpler wallet, designed purely in an app format for ease of use. Like our current Android wallet, this wallet is a simple, clean, fast app geared to mobile users.
Advanced wallet for power users - This wallet is made for traders/investors and will include direct links to all exchanges where ArtByte is traded, links to tools such as our blockchain explorer, news via Bitcointalk, Twitter, Facebook, etc., and of course, our built-in pool mining.
ArtByte Music Store will accept Bitcoins, as well as ArtByte - There are currently no music download sites accepting Bitcoin. ArtByte Music Store is the only site currently accepting digital currency (ArtBytes) for music downloads. So we are adding the ability to accept Bitcoin payments as well as ArtByte.
Our music site will use an API that converts any Bitcoin purchases to ArtBytes, which will be deposited in the musicians ArtByte wallet. The addition of BTC payments will provide an additional service to musicians as well as introducing Bitcoiners to ArtByte.
ArtByte Gallery - The gallery will be a mobile device app unlike anything available today. Artists will be able to add media showing their work. For example, a painter or sculptor can show a picture of their work, a musician can upload a video or audio file, a dancer can show a video of a recent performance, an actor can post a video clip or their reel, a writer can include the cover and a few pages of their work. All types of artists, around the world can showcase their work. To make it easy for fans to support artists, the Gallery app will include an ArtByte wallet for the user. Also each artist's post will link to the artist's ArtByte wallet. So with just one click, any fan will be able to tip any artist directly from the mobile app.
