A GUI is of critical importance for the next level of adoption.

How many Bitcoin users do you think still use QT?

I run QT still Huh

is that bad?

Me too! Id does what it is supposed to do. For Monero, I also have the CLI wallet installed, but I would never get my wife to use it. But she can handle Bitcoin-QT without problems -> GUI wallet is a big deal IMHO.

BTW: there may be a small, shy triangle breakout. Let's see how it develops.

I think us techies tend to underestimate the issue with the CLI wallet. Its not so much that people can't figure out how to use it, its not difficult and most people could. But because we are dealing with money there is apprehension about using something that is not super easy and straight forward, users might think they are more likely to screw something up and lose their funds.

From personal experience, yes to the bolded.

I found btc 3 years ago because it was useful for playing poker. Not because of philosophy or being a tech nerd. Like 99% I was clueless about money. My first "wallet" was the poker site Seals With Clubs, I kept all my btc there. Next was Electrum. Then I found Monero in 2014 while still not knowing much about computers. The community was very helpful and I was able to set everything up and use it. I was very cautious so that I wouldn't screw things up. My own motivation was key. I didn't download and use the Bitcoin client until a few months ago. I still mostly use electrum.

In other news I nibbled @246 while I slept. This now seems cheap even if it is double from a month ago. 30 day +101.47% Perspective for those looking for moon. I speculate these bananas are only going up from here. inexorable
