I wanted to ask the developers how this privacy is different from anonymous coins, but ann is locked

3. Accounts and Privacy

Gulden for Desktop now uses accounts which you can add to serve different purposes. We have 2 different account creation types.

* Normal Accounts
* Mobile Accounts which enables the link feature between your desktop and mobile device.

The additional privacy comes in for both deposits and withdrawals.

* Gulden deposits:
Gulden for desktop wallets will use a different Gulden address each time you receive Gulden, this way the depositors will have no way of knowing who else is sending you Gulden to your wallet.
Note: A depositor can continue to use the address you gave them for multiple deposits.

* Gulden withdrawals:
With accounts you can separate your payments depending on its intended use without the recipients of your Gulden knowing what other transactions your doing from within your wallet.
eg. You can have 1 account for family transactions and another for business transactions.

Hi, what is being talked about here is just that the accounts are 'physically' separated from one another, and don't ever exchange funds without you willingly choosing to do so.

This is not the whole anonymous thing that the anonymous coins are trying to do, which is more about transactions on the block chain being 100% untraceable under any circumstance.
While I find some of that 'interesting' from an academic perspective - I don't personally believe it is something that the average person wants or needs, and think it is probably a hindrance to mainstream adoption in various ways. Gulden's goal remains on the mainstream so this is not something that is anywhere in our current plans.

If I have two accounts "Private" and "Work" and use the one only to deal with my work customers and the other to only deal with my private contacts then my work contacts can't snoop on what payments I've been doing using my private wallet - as there are no (or little) block chain links between them.
i.e. basic privacy expectations that regular day people might have, but up until now haven't had with a standard wallet. (Unless they use multiple wallets - or coin control but nobody is actually disciplined enough to do that right)

Hope the above makes sense to you.

MaNI I want to say massive respect to you and your team, I almost couldn't believe I was opening up a crypto wallet when opening up 1.6.0 for the first time. I like the freedom accounts give you and the link feature from Android to desktop is revolutionary. Thank YOU!!

For the bad news the traders are behaving the way I expected and disrespecting your teams development, if you could let the traders take over the coin and let them fuck around with it and start a new Gulden and only have users swap. There is no denying your teams development skills and it's unfair a handful of whales are stamping all over your work.

Wow, the absolute trash in this thread is just disgusting, and then people wonder why we want nothing to do with bitcointalk, what an absolute pit of filth.

I'm going to comment here, just this once, to clear up some things, don't bother replying as I'm putting this thread on ignore when I'm done - I don't need BS distractions like this.

@Svener and everybody else suggesting ridiculous things - we are not going to do any of the things you are suggesting, so please stop disrespecting us with these crappy fake rumours.
We are quite happy with where we are with the coin that we are currently working really hard on building, we are NOT going to do some dodgy hair brained scheme just because you have suddenly dreamed it up and we are certainly not going to go and join some other coin either. What the hell is wrong with you people.

@The various 'criptoe' members - the only people 'dragging' you into this is yourselves, please just -piss off- and go deal with your own coins, you've done more than enough damage now. If it has Gulden in it -just don't read it- there you go simple, done. (But thats not what you want is it - you've actually been aching for an excuse to stir shit)
We don't stalk you around constantly causing trouble, so what exactly is your problem? Maybe focus some of your energy into actually working on your own coin(s) that seem in desperate need of it...

@The various sock puppets from digibyte and other fake coins, that keep suggesting that 1.6.0 is fake - sorry to disappoint, but this is one if not the only real projects in Crypto and you are going to be bawling your eyes out when 1.6.0 comes out shortly. Just because everything -you- are involved with is a scam does not mean that we work in the same way.

@The few legitimate people reading this thread, please just ignore all the pathetic FUD orchestrated by this tiny group of people.

MaNI, I am saying your team deserves better. How you going to feel when these guys push the price under 2000 to spite your team and prove their psycho point they have the power to control the market. I don't expect you to reply and I won't say anything further until after 1.6.0 and we see what they do.
