anyone downloaded the new windows qt wallet?
any idea why they took out the block explorer and statistics, earlier waller was far prettier and functional, not criticizing just mentioning
plus PLEASE if you notice downlaods come from a site without https, I mean this is basics, 10 bucks a year and really helps to prevent attacks and malicious swapping of files please dev and crew please add and to site pages
The downloads are hosted HTTPS might move them to github. The site needs to be updated it's on the list The old qt wallet was updated for POS 3 and then new one will be obsolete. Although a block explorer is interesting, the markets wallet has hundreds of features with smart contracts and decentralized markets and such. So eventually everyone should move to that.

Mac QT Wallet Announcement After consideration from community feedback, we have decided to pull support for the Mac QT wallet. As some of you know the wallet runs through a wine app which contains the wallet within the app package. On our site we tell users to back up their wallet and we also explain the location of the files and we have made announcements on how to update. However, if proper procedures are not taken and a user overwrites the app package, this deletes all existing files inside the app. And if by chance a Mac QT wallet user does not backup their wallet (outside the app) before the update is applied, then they will overwrite their existing wallet.dat file and lose their coins. All QT wallets will eventually become obsolete as the Halo Client will be the only wallet that can function with the rolling peg after it’s implementation. For this reason, there has been very little emphasized applied to improving the QT wallets. For the sake of security, and from this point on, all Mac users will only be provided with access to the Halo Client. The QT wallet will still work, however we will not host the download anymore. Again, please do not replace the app package and always remember to backup your wallet. In the Halo/Markets wallet you should always back up your two keys. We can not stress the importance enough that even though cryptocurrencies provide a way for people of the world to manage their own money without the need for 3rd party entities, this freedom still requires a level of responsibility and the awareness to back up your wallets. In no way shape or form is the BitBay community responsible for any losses due to irresponsible actions.

It is apparent to me now that to hit a top MC position you need to allow collaboration or usage of the platforms by other developers/companies. In this case it could be better to have the API out before the peg so that value in the project will inflate to a much higher level before the pegging.
So many user cases for bitbay but to code them all out in the most ergonomic way and user friendly way would be impossible for one person. If the api was out i think you would already see projects being built on top of bays platform by other developers.
Website/mobile based user friendly services like sports betting, prediction markets, even currency exchange could all be developed to be super user friendly and decentralised and secure if running on top of bitbays market place.
A good gateway from fiat in and out via a website that people are used to using is another great thing we could have.
This is just an idea of course those who know more may have good reason to say it is best the pegging comes first.

This makes a lot of sense, good business sense. Getting other developers on board now would lock in development resources from the outside without costing the project. I would be willing to bet there are developers already considering or, working on BAY apps.

I hear you but although I know slack is vital I do believe that this board is critical for appearing active. Glad to hear though that slack is growing fast for bay. I hear there are hundreds of people on it. I like the hint from munti that the api is coming too. All good stuff.

I hear there are hundreds of people on it. I like the hint from munti that the api is coming too. All good stuff. Crypto I agree with your comment regarding this board and slack. (also remember reading your similar comment months ago regarding the same thing) I only found out about Bay because of this thread. It is also much easier to learn and follow a project on here vs slack. The search function is not the best on slack either to find answers to questions. If a board is inactive I usually assume that it's either dead or has no following.
