Re: [ANN] SilkCoin | New Wallet | NOW on MintPal / Cryptsy

So you have to ask yourself. What is Silk coin doing that is creating UTILITY? What is it doing that other coins are not doing?

And.... What is Silkcoin NOT doing that other coins are doing?

- BIP 0021 "URI Scheme" to enable payments by clicking on link or scanning QR code
- BIP 0070 "Payment Protocol" for better communication between merchant & customer

As a web developer in the finance industry, I see these 2 BIPs as vital for any crypto currency that wants to have merchant services built upon it.

Quoted to increase chance of dev notice.
Thanks FredDag.

Correct me if im wrong but we already have build in QR code support. You can check it on the Send/Receive tab (Show QR)

Hi Kalisto... I didn't see this post earlier.

From what I can see (I hit a missing dll error on 9.0.2), the QR support is only partial...
You should be able to copy & paste the qr "silkcoin:xxxxx" link into a web browser address bar (or use in an html tag) & it opens the Silkcoin wallet, pre-populating the payment transaction with the details from the link. I get a "protocol not associated with application" error when i try this.
Is that working for anyone else?
