Think about it... why would anybody need a growth account if there would be a user-friendly QT? If I start staking in my BTCD-QT.. it stakes. And I have my BTCD and I can transact them whenever I want.
I really don't understand what some people see in Neucoin.
Neucoin is not going after maintream users with a "user-friendly QT". That would be insane! There is no such thing. "BTCD-QT", "staking", etc, it's just mumbo jumbo to 99.99999999999% of users. Consumers will never download a client. Never, ever, ever.
The standard neucoin qt client is for pro miners only - and completely irrelevant for mainstream users.
They are targeting facebook users who don't even know what bitcoin is. I'm totally serious when I say that for them to figure out what PoS mining is, let alone want to try and figure it out, download a "client" and change Settings to "Unlock Wallet for Minting Only" really IS insanely technical. It really is.
So forget about the desktop client, that's not how any facebook users will start adopting cryptocurrency. It's all about reaching them on their turf, in a fun effortless way, with what can be offered through simple web interface. Drop and drag, click and done.
The future of Crypto will be as easy-to-use as a safari-browser. And we will see browser with wallets and so on. Many different ways and most of them will be simplified. There will be wallets in social-network-accounts, maybe for more than just one Crypto and so on. I'm pretty sure about that but I would bet all my BTC that Neucoin won't survive. Main-reason is the economy... even if they would be able to develop it all what they want in an technical way, the central-bank-economy with a distribution that isn't distributed in any way and more like a pyramid-scheme... I really see no chance.
And if you look at the official forum... is that really a start how you and/or many others maybe believed several months ago? There is no difference to hundreds of other Altcoin-projects with a few who hope it will be the next big thing and already worrying about it. All the unasked questions that won't be answered. But it's in the heads and it's visible on the exchanges and the richlist.
