Hi tranz, thanks for your ongoing input into Nickels, we are glad that Nickels has a dev like you.
Going forward we need to think of Nickels as an early competitor like the way websites were in the 90's when the internet was born.
Who won and who lost were the guys that came up with the best ideas to get traffic and today the end result is GOOGLE.

As we can see that all the other alts are trying different ideas to capture the crowd. Anybody here or outside this forum is helping if they are positively promoting Nickels. That for starters is what we need. Positive promotion.

We need to look at what features that a wallet needs to have to make it easy to intergrate with websites.

The wallet could have a chat/social platform were users can tip

I have seen cloakcoin with its own trading platform in the wallet

The key to any coins success right now is the ability to create a killer wallet and market the coin like storm.

I think I have said this somewhere. Marketing can make or break.


Often times these types of things are easier said than done. We all have to take a step back and realize Tranz's priorities, from what I understand they are:

1 - to ensure the wallets and network are safe from attack and abuse and that value can be stored without risk of losing the coins
2 - fix any bugs or problems with the existing wallet that causes users to be confused or client to crash
3 - charity work (may be higher on the list, this is just a guess)
4 - helping others learn
5 - GUI
6 - marketing

With suggestions like "create a trading platform that is inside the wallet", it might be easiest to help Tranz to do this by building the framework and submitting a pull request when it is ready. I am sure Tranz is a real person with a family and full time job and that HBN is an almost full time hobby.  So maybe the best thing would be to create some code for Tranz to look at?

This.

I can't code, and this is endlessly frustrating to me. I'm going to learn, because I have many ideas for cryptos that I am certain can be done. I don't often put them out, because the correct answer is the one you just gave. Help. Write some code to do the thing you desire to happen. But I can't right now, so I keep my mouth shut. Somewhat.

There are a lot of people on here that DO have the skills. Put your skills to use if you can. I'm a writer and a manager, not a programmer. I do what I can, and m trying to fix the lack.

I frequently ask you for lines of code, and try to figure them out. I'm learning from this, and I will eventually be able to modify other's code. But I need a much more basic understanding of programming, particularly in C++. I'm considering going back to school for that very purpose. At my age, that's something of a daunting endeavour, but not beyond reality Cheesy
