Great update! Regarding I2P / Tor support: Dear devs, please post instructions on how to install ShadowCash on Tails 1.8, since it comes both with I2P and Tor already pre-installed and pre-configured.

This will compile the ShadowCore QT client and download verified blockchain and set that up. Once you start the Shadow client you will have at most "a few days" of data to sync.
So aside from the time taken to compile and download you will be up and running in minutes.
Did the EFF or someone trusted vouch for tails 1.8 and validate tails.boum.org? I fail to see how using tails increases privacy especially when you are trusting so many CA's?
