I have been looking around this forum and been reading up on all of the false information people are being presented with. Just to clarify:
-
http://prntscr.com/4ugy99 --> Shadowncoin uses the QT wallet and has a HTML5 front-end. FACT
- I/O did create the FIRST HTML5 standalone wallet. FACT
As to why they did this and what advantages this brings. Well consider that this is a market currently mostly involved with members who have a technical background and are developers who do not understand marketing or design. When you see that and realize the only way out to the public and gaining more support to this community is through creating wallets that are user friendly and have been designed to create simplicity. Not stuffed with a ton of features which have no support for its overall market adaptability.
I believe I/O deserve some credit for doing this and allowing it to be open source. Look how this market is shaping, the coins that have the real features and real goals are being pushed into the dark so that the glorified marketed and useless coins are traded instead.
+1 to the I/O team for their great efforts despite the great deal of pressure that has been placed against them. Keep it up mates

http://www.coinssource.com/io-coin-design-meets-function-html5-wallet-pos-3-0/Well i re-read that a few times and i would have liked to agree on a point here and there. I'm afraid i cant, it was so loaded it actually made me sick that you are still even going on about the difference between an all html5
"frontend" (coinssource) as some of you call yours and a fronted on qt.
This is not really and nor should it be a topic of debate. If you were wise you wouldn't go there, pointing fingers, trying to convince yourself or anyone else that one is better then the other by putting another down.
The fact remains Shadow released the worlds "First User-Friendly HTML5 Wallet!" be it over qt or not it is still HTML5 and it is still the worlds first shortly followed by your all HTML5 which did compliment your wallets relevance and really catered to your market. Hats off!!
If you want to go there and make it a thing though then i'll meet you half way! You just unfortunately came late to the party but only as the worlds "First User-Friendly HTML5 Wallet!" which really at this point in time in this space is not really and should not be your biggest concern. Certainly when they are after two very different markets all together. So lets just be clear on that.
Can i make a suggestion that you think twice about bringing another coin project up to give comparison to your work and just instead, focus on your features, your target market, and continue to build up what you think is a useful technical advancement in this space!
Because ego has no part in this space and stands out like dogs balls to be blunt! It has created a rift between projects and communities where there just should not be one! Good luck and please stop making the comparison by attempting to bringing one down over the other it's not becoming of any of you and does not really sit in line with what you are saying you are trying to achieve. Thanks and good luck.
