How to create closed-source, trustless app which has access to wallet?

January 22, 2014, 01:09:29 PM

Hi
Let's say I'd like to create a closed-source windows app, which can also work with wallet. But of course, there's an issue of trust, since nobody can be sure there isn't a code inside which would steal the money after the wallet is decrypted. Is there some way to ensure that the application can't do that?

"In a nutshell, the network works like a distributed timestamp server, stamping the first transaction to spend a coin. It takes advantage of the nature of information being easy to spread but hard to stifle." -- Satoshi
