While a HUGE fan of the new wallet idea I just don't understand the point of an 'App Store' within the wallet which now seems to be the primary focus? Maybe I am looking at it the wrong way but these are my concerns.
1) Why would I want a bunch of apps running within my wallet? Like what would they be? People are making comparison to Google Play...so you guys are thinking people want to download games like Angry Birds or Tetris and other smartphoney type apps like AccuWeather to use within their wallet??? Why? Seems like besides being unnecessary it would bloat the Wallet program and make it run slower and/or open a huge can of security issues.
2) This is your wallet aka your personal bank vault holding all your wealth in Particle. Most people don't even trust pre-compiled binaries of their wallet. Who would want/trust to use a 3rd party app within your wallet? Seems like a hug security issue. Who/How verifies that the apps are safe and not doing something nasty?
Interested in what people think and counter arguments.
That is a narrow mind point of view (no insult).1) Why would I want a bunch of apps running within my wallet? Like what would they be?

You have to think about how crowd sourcing developped things you never thought about before, that 1 person woukd never have been able to think about on its own. Its the point here of making the platform to enable the possibilities. Meanwhile, some of the features that come straight to mind is being able to exchange straight from wallet. Then add your broker account to your wallet? Now you have a wallet with your crypto and your fiat? Seems much better than what we currently have to me.
Just keep in mind it offers the possibility. What those possibilities are is still unknown, but the first step is making them possible.
