New wallet works well, only thing found was staking wallets can get large and it may slow down too much, suggest creating a new wallet as a remedy. Good to see the scam kobo twitter account was suspended quickly, hope nobody sent ethereum to that address expecting lots of kobocoin on a made up IPO con!
Yes, it's working well. The thing is to keep it synced (try not to leave it too long between syncs) if you're staking a lot and occasionally send balances to new addresses to keep the wallet efficient.It wasn't easy but we got it upgraded
Work has started on the mobile wallet for KOBO. It will be a schildbach wallet which isn't the greatest (in terms of being constantly synced) but it hopefully allows KOBO to be completely independent without the need for a backend server pushing out hashes. Once the mobile wallet is built, there's a young UI designer from Nigeria that I'll be sending it to for a new look and feel that utilises the different denominations as a swipe option (KOBO / MANILLA / COWRIE / MANSA). She's a fantastic UI designer and I'm sure she'll help produce something very different from what's currently available.
Btw, I've now relocated to Gaborone, Botswana and am now working with BitcoinLady https://twitter.com/bitcoinlady on KOBO, Satoshicentre https://satoshicentre.tech/, PLAAS https://plaas.io and also Asdex https://asdex.com - I'm hoping there might be some good news soon on the Asdex exchange. We've been talking to a few people.
