Just curious... why can't we have access to the wallet yet? That way I could set up my payout address.
Something to do with solomining?
Something to do with the coin not being launched yet.
But what does is hurt to have you wallet?
The wallet can connect to the seed node and allow for mining. So, if you have the wallet (which is the daemon for the miner) you can begin mining as well. So, wallets are locked until release time.
You can download the zip and we'll simply post the password to them at release time. Didn't want everyone wasting their time downloading at the last minute. Also, I think it's also more fair this way as anyone with any connection speed can be ready at launch waiting for the Password to be posted to the main page.
