hey guys, what about a MINTCOIN ONLINE BANK?
a simple site where you can login with an email and a password (possible anonymously using Tor). There you have your own Mintcoin account where you can send money to or withdraw money.
behind all this is a person/dev/institution/fund with a huge wallet running 24/7. they can charge you a bit for running the Bank but you will still get your annual interest.
advantages:
- simple for average users
- don't worry about your wallet not minting, wrong wallet, slow wallet or energy costs
- accessable via any PC, smartphone, tablet (also the apple products)
- anonymous
disadvantages:
- you have to trust the organisation/people running the bank
- network security (i still think a lot of people would run their own wallets)
I hope some people are interested in discussing this suggestion. I would give a LOT of my Mints as a bounty if this is really developed. I think it's even better than the android wallet.
Cheers
Well it is an interesting suggestion, this coin does lend itself to that idea, so long as it goes hand in hand with a fiat exchange for mintcoin. If I remember back to when I started with cryptos, I bought my first bitcoins with a cash deposit and they were sent to a blockchain.info wallet. I wouldn't trust another online wallet, but if a Mintcoin online bank looked to emulate their model it could be a big plus for Mintcoin.
