Although Monero doesn't have an official GUI, it does have a secure web wallet: mymonero.com It's secure because your private keys are never on the server side. Still, as with anything web-based, it's best practice to keep only immediate spending money on web wallets.

Zcash will probably have a GUI first, but what good is a GUI if the actual currency requires you to trust the owners (instead of just math)?

The Command Line Interface (CLI) wallet for Monero (simplewallet) is not hard to use. There are plenty of tutorials on how to set it up and use it (google), but there is always mymonero.com.

wow, had no idea about Z-cash!

You mean it's not open source?

thanks for the tip

Zcash is open source, but it requires a Trusted Setup. They're different things. For why a Trusted Setup is bad, see:

The problems that Zcash has, as outlined in these articles, do not apply to Monero.

I'm not sure about the other coins, but WBB V5 isn't going to be purely anon.

One of the goals is to make WBB business friendly and that means some transactions and information need to be anon and some need to be public.

Because of that, they are going to give the user the choice of each transaction being public or private. Or at least that is the way I have come to understand it. Kind of tricky as there is little information on V5 for now.

All anyone can talk about is the confidential transaction ability of XMR, WBB V5, BTS Stealth Transactions, Zero-cash etc, and none of them even have a GUI yet.

The question is, how high will confidential transaction coins fly once their GUI applications come out?

AND WHICH WILL BE RELEASED FIRST?
