You made the coin more centralized and vulnerable. Plus it looks terrible.
Why is it more centralized and vulnerable?
Vald is confusing what centralization means with respect to the security of the saffroncoin blockchain and pow network. The saffroncoin network, the multi-algo process for pow etc all ensure as much decentralization and distribution as possible. This is by design. Pooling peripheral tools and features into a wallet client does not compromise the blockchain and hashing network as they are disparate things and only part of the growing infrastructure/ecosystem that is being build around Saffrocoin to support it and enhance its usefulness.
To the point he makes insofar as it "looking terrible" well everyone has their opinion, but perhaps he's not familiar with the notion of "beta" or that coin devs arent some rich companies with teams of artists and UI design specialists that can push out products that are designed to sell units. The devs are hard working, and want to produce results in the form of functionally and additive updates, further building around the coin to support it. First comes the new features, then future updates will offer progressively cleaner UIs. Expecting google level UIs off the start from devs whom derive no salaries from their hard work is ridiculous. What they ARE doing is producing compelling new feature, tools, services at a pace that should be making all of crypto take notice.
Awesome job devs, keep up the great work.
Thanks Nicolas. Regarding the UI, Vlad has his own opinion. We give what the majority wants and not what 1 person wants. The majority loves this and that is how it will be. How we are different from other coins is that we have 2 wallets. For people like Vlad who think this is "terrible", they can always use the classic wallet. Other coins who develop some special features have just 1 wallet. So whether people like it or not they have to use that wallet. We are more community-centric and hence provided options for users to choose their own wallet. The classic wallet will not be forgotten and it will receive all major updates.
Now what he said about "centralized", i don't think he understands how SFRMS works. Many people just think that complete decentralization means absolute privacy and security. That is completely wrong.
Vlad I have updated how SFRMS works on the first page. Please read that to understand. If we had developed the messaging service on top of the blockchain which you call as "decentralized", everything would be public since the blockchain is public. Also the message deletion would not be possible since the entire blockchain would have to roll back and delete the messages. So what would be the use of providing a messaging system without any privacy,security and anonymity? There are many clients for that.
We will also expand POOF! to include more anonymous data to be sent. All this can't happen by depending on the blockchain. We need to evolve with time and provide more secure applications.
Regarding "vulnerabilities", i seriously do not know what makes you think that. Unless ofcourse your system is infected with a Virus and that effects the wallet. All features are well secured. In the final release we will implement a secure tunnel.
We have put in a lot of thought in developing this system taking in account various criteria and situations. Also this is a Beta version. There will be many improvements in the final version.
Hope many others who thought the same like Vlad can read this post and understand that "decentralization" does not necessarily mean "complete security and privacy". Also POOF! is more secure and anonymous as an independent product rather than being built on top of the blockchain which is completely public and would provide no privacy for your messages.
