spv don't play with pos thus there is no security against malitious nodes thus timebomb.

What is spv?  PoS is 'point of sale', right?

spv is a verification process that only requires block headers to be verified and not the whole chain downloaded because it's too big for phones. pos is proof of stake I presumed.

Aha, thanks, yes, I understand now.  By "template" he's talking about the fact that the schildbach wallet is open-source/GPL so you can start with that as a starting point.  Now I understand why he's talking about scrypt coins.  This makes more sense than  point-of-sale system... lol
