On the idea of stats within the wallet, I initially thought this was a bit pointless, but I actually now think it is a brilliant idea that will help differentiate CGB. Think about it... we are absolutely surrounded by altcoins with all their differences (or similarities!) but the vast majority have the exact same looking client. (I only have a handful of different alts so could have missed a prominent altcoin with a radically different client). If CGB has a client that is actually unique, that in itself lends a huge amount of legitimacy to the coin, and if these features are also smart/useful (like live stats) it showcases the quality development team behind it, rather than just suggesting their capabilities are limited to cloning another client. This would presumably be a bit of work, but I think it would be worth it. I think it would be really worth doing something like this before any kind of marketing drive too. Although I am no expert I do have a bit of experience in beta testing software and hunting out obscure bugs, I'd be happy to do this on any new client.
Thanks for the writeup and you are right about the client! We want to make it really stand out and start focusing on having a truly developed set of features as opposed to a clone. We expect to be releasing the next client next month and will need good feedback from testers such as yourself! We like to tip on Reddit for participation, hope to see you around!
