^^ Since it works independently from the blockchain, would it maybe be possible to release a Shadowchat client separately? Some people might be interested in the chat but not the cash system. Just a thought.
you can download the wallet and use shadowchat without any coins.
True, but having a more lightweight download might still be desirable for some, and would take minimal effort from the dev team to make it happen. I think its worth looking into.
Thanks for the input.. I think this is a great idea.. It can act as a nice introduction point for many and especially the darknetmarkets. I frequent
reddit.com/r/darknetmarkets and I cant tell you how many people I see struggling to adapt to the learning curve of PGP.(Although its pretty straight forward) Many new vendors or just newbs to the market frequently have issues with first getting used to PGP. I see shadow as a chat tool to help bring encrypted messaging to those struggling with the learning curve of PGP in general not just the darknetmarkets. So as a stand alone client it would work great to do this while also gaining traction for the Core Shadow Project by introducing people to Shadow and letting them dabble in this great project to see just what we are really about... the #FightforPrivacy
As long as people are using shadow....Even if it's not the actual monetary portion its still growing the grasp of the project and helping deliver privacy to the people.
Yes. ShadowChat app would appeal to the masses and be the perfect segway into ShadowCash.
