Now that the lightweight wallet Electrum has been ported to Litecoin.  I feel strongly that we should start a crowdfunding campaign for a bounty for porting Electrum to Anoncoin.  And the building of an Electrum plugin for Zerocoin.

I think it's a little too early for a lot of people to be using non-standard wallet software, especially one that requires trusting server operators. I could be wrong; please try and support your position further Smiley

Most people use mobile or lightweight devices for bitcoin and running a full wallet is not an option to the majority of users.  It will really hamper Anoncoin adoption not having lightweight wallets like Electrum plus mobile wallets.  Maybe someone could fork the blockchain.info GitHub for a suitable bounty instead.  We do need lots of people running full nodes though.  To try and avoid the sybil attack problem  So maybe we should look at the Peercoin model.  Where full nodes get paid via staking by running full time nodes 24/7/365.  This would of course make the coin inflationary in nature although it could be done a very small rate.
