Have you, worldcoindeveloper, contacted other WDC devs in that discord channel? Have you had any discussions with them?

Sure have (different discord name, but it's obvious who I post as). You should join us on the discord!

You absolutely need to trust a developer of the wallet. Otherwise wallet user could lose all their coins and it might cause a fork which would destroy WDC.
You appeared here out of nowhere and said you alone will make a new wdc wallet and then few days later it's done. Then you expect that everyone will just install your wallet without any information about what is done to it and why the new wallet was needed?
Then there is this other user who just "added seednodes" to the latest old style wallet instead of just listing the nodes that users can add with addnode console command and then expect that others will install his new wallet. That is ridiculous.

Actually you don't *need* to trust the developer, if the code is in front of you. I'll make the source code available when I've finished testing and you can vet it yourself. It hasn't happened yet because I don't believe in releasing code that I haven't personally tested completely. (For instance, the litecoin code I merged, had a hard fork at block 709999 which I only discovered through testing).

I don't expect anyone to install the wallet, but I'll provide compiled copies for testing when I release the source.

What I have done is rebased the existing codebase worldcoin-0.8 against 0.8.7.5 litecoin vs 0.8.6.2 litecoin which the current build is based off of. I also stripped out all of the non essential changes, (such as the entire UI) as those changes make the wallet very difficult and error prone to upgrade.
