Is it supposed to be functional?
How do you get an address to send to a hookins?
not yet really it's only testnet

https://github.com/hookedinHi! Just wanted to let you know that hookedin has been rebranded into "Moneypot" and is currently live on testnet for anyone to try out:
https://wallet.moneypot.com (using:
https://testnet.moneypot.dev as the custodian)
Curious to know what the current state of the other project (Scrit) is? Can't find any representation on the forum though there seems to be some stuff on github which does not immediately make clear how far they are in terms of development..?
To reiterate some stuff that also has been mentioned in the ANN
thread:
- moneypot allows for (free) internal transactions (using internal lightning invoices, if you were wondering how to try it out), and is supposed to be completely free of any unproveable repudiation by making almost all interaction certified by signatures proving your intent, both from the custodian and the user. So (almost) every action is hashed and then signed using the keys of either the custodian, or the keys of the coins involved in the transfer if the action is coming from the user. The idea is that both parties verify this during and after the transaction to keep communications fair.
The biggest caveat currently is that it still is a centralized entity, which apart from naturally raising anguish and discomfort, makes it especially vulnerable to attacks from
third-parties, insiders (us) and mistakes in the custodian code that go unspotted (though we are fully open-source).
With the upcoming Taproot activation, it seems like an interesting option to explore to see if we can leverage schnorr either in the form of multisigs or threshold sigs schemes to make moneypot decentralized in the sense that funds are held by multiple signers and every signer keeps their own record of all off-chain actions, and then have a master custodian relay all actions from users and initiate on-chain transfers... If there is enough interest in this whole chaumian bank idea at all.
Though the above description of ideas is intentionally vague and not so much concrete because I (at least) am not (yet) well-acquainted with said scripting (threshold sig), and the upcoming taproot update, so we will really have to look into this to see if this will even be possible to concoct in combination with stuff such as lightning.
That being said, we're currently in the process of gathering some feedback before deciding if we're going live on mainnet, so if you're interested in trying out the wallet, I'd say eat your heart out! We are really desperate for any criticism at all!
