[XC][XCurrency] Decentralised Trustless Privacy Platform / Encrypted XChat / Pos

[synechist]

So is XChat going to be a separate app from the wallet? Or do you mean like a seperate tab?

I'd be well happy with orange/black xchat anyway  

I think it is a separate tab in the same app.  The icon on the bottom of the screen pic furthest to the right looks like a chat icon. 

Yes, it's all one app at the moment. But differentiating is likely as we approach the official public launch.

Maybe it would be good to make it a messenger app with payment option. So the messenger functions would be the main thing. Not saying that the wallet part should have less functuonallity.

Just an idea

+1. Chat is where it's at for user adoption. Will the chat app have emoticons and all the other toys the kids like?

The (tentative) plan is to have a tightly integrated suite of apps. You'd switch between them in-app without even noticing.

Alternatively we could just package essentially the same general-purpose app as XChat, Xpay/whatever, etc. - but with different branding.

All this is pretty speculative, as I'm sure you can imagine.

+ 2. Surely we want to keep the payments option in the chat app. This is where we are going to stand out.

Also I'd agree its gotta have emoticons, ability to send pics etc etc and be up to scratch with the top chat apps people use currently.

I think the mobile wallet should have XChat included, but I also think you should be able to download XChat separate from the wallet so that people who don't want the wallet can still be anonymous on the Internet.

Why not keep the wallet section anyway. people dont have to use it, but one day it might come in handy for them and they might go and buy some XC.

Some people might not want it for some reason and I think XC should respect that.

But that is just my opinion.

I agree completely.

Having a random wallet in a chat app will also be confusing.

But an empty tab or info page with text along the lines of "make payments as privately as you chat: get Xpay/whatever" would mmake a lot of sense.

Then, once the payments app is installed, ideally it would seamlessly integrate into a tab on the XChat app.

True some people might want that, but the wallet function isn't something that is too much of an inconvenience, Its not like download this....but it also has his bad thing but just ignore that, no it's download this for completely anon chat, also you can use it for complete anon currency transfer also, and having it doesn't really change anything

I think if you want XC to be able get on the iOS platform, you might want to separate it out first.    Unless appstore approves the combined app too....   XChat can just be like a Firechat type separate app on launch to get some brand recognition.

Hi guys. Please list XCurrency on the new CoinBlab crypto social network: http://coinblab.com

Here is an example page: http://coinblab.com/page/dogecoin

CoinBlab also has groups, events, blogs, and IM! Create an account and secure your username first.

I checked out coinblab, social network for altcoins.

It Could be good for XC, but maybe another place for others to P&D and FUD.

Now you put it like that, I completely agree. Also the same with any other future apps that will come out I presume? They could all be extentions of an integrated app.

This would be amazing.

Amazing day for XC today and amazing reads in the thread! who want to test the chat with new wallet release?

Ideally, yes. However I'm not sure what the various mobile platforms have the capacity for.

[G-Bert]

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but will the mobile wallet need to download the whole blockchain?

Yup.

As I said before but didn't get an answer to, isn't it possible to make a Multibit for XCurrency?

[G-Bert]

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but will the mobile wallet need to download the whole blockchain?

Yup.

Thanks, I thought so. And then they will all be nodes right?

But XChat on its own, will not be a node I presume? So XChat will, in a way, be a form of advertising XC as a payment platform to get more nodes = more decentralised?
