Would someone be so kind to give an update or insight regarding and surrounding the desktop QT-wallet.
Here is what I am facing:
I left mining Digibytes because of their crappy QT-wallet
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=408268.msg15150918#msg15150918Prior me leaving mining Digibytes, I started searching for a new source to point my equipment at. I knew of Auroracoin for some time, and was pleasantly surprised finding it still being alive and the takeover. I had positive experience with mining Auroracoins in the past, and whilst reading back and forth this topic and the prior ones, I decided to switch my resources from Digibyte to Auroracoin. The multi-algo's was one of the factors that had attracted me.
I am honest to say, that I find myself somewhat disappointed. And I'm also honest to say that the 'fault' in that totally sits with myself, due to my expectations on the multi-algo. Except for the block time, I came to experience none of the code has been altered or optimized.
Without wanting to be inflammatory, them guys at Digibyte cannot program properly. I'm not talking tech savy stuff here, but usability. Regarding usability, easy usability, their wallet just sucks. And giving it straight forward, Auroracoin's does to.
The official Auroracoin forum, I find a total mess. Not fudding here, just giving some feedback. In my opinion it has no easy overview, on which I am stuck finding answers.
So, my straight forward questions:
Are their any plans to optimize the wallet?
And if so, what would they be?
"Optimizing" the wallet is pretty vague. When you say optimize the wallet, what are you looking for in a wallet update?
Our primary concern with the code is that it provides a stable blockchain for us to build day to day services on. The change to multi-algo greatly improved this over our previous code. So as far as the blockchain workings are concerned, we're in a much better place now. The GUI is another story though. We've talked extensively as a group about changing the GUI, and BioMike has some decent plans on doing it, but they are somewhat secondary to our primary goals at this time. I also proposed that we get rid of QT altogether at some point in an alternative wallet.
All that said though, you need to be clear on what you want. Is optimizing changing the GUI? Is it changing the blockchain specs? Are you wanting the wallet to just give you AUR every time you open it? Looking at your discussion in the DGB thread, are you just looking for an Electrum wallet for AUR?
