How will you ensure that your wallet will connect with those apps? How different is your wallet from a multi-currency wallet? As far as I can tell, there's no difference at all. Saying that others are lacking support or now is not going to sell your product, since yours is probably the same at the beginning. Not to mention people can easily use Metamask or something similar since most dapps nowadays support it.

There is an open-source project called https://walletconnect.com. WalletConnect adapter lets your app connect apps or dapps easily and is supported by almost all major players in the industry. Implementing this will solve most of the connection problems.

At the base level, my wallet is not different than other multichain wallets. That was one of the things that discouraged me from starting this project. Why would people use my wallet when great and popular wallets can do almost the same thing? But, end-users love shortcuts and usability. If the wallet can solve a pain point of end-users, they use it.

I received some valid feedback from gamers who play blockchain games. I asked them which wallet they use, and we ended up discussing a wallet that could support some of the blockchains that are not supported by major wallets. The other feedback was that they had to use different wallets for different games. I am still trying to validate this idea with other cryptocurrency gaming communities. (That is why I am chatting with you guys in here Smiley)

If it is something that will benefit the community especially gamers then why not, Tell us first who you are what are your skills, and what are your past and present projects, The Majority of top wallets in the industry have their companies and names of their developers attached to the wallets they created.

If I am creating an open-source wallet, these are very valid questions to be answered.

I am a software engineer with 18 years of experience. I started as a system administrator and taught myself how to code. I am an expert in Python, React, and JavaScript. I strongly believe in open-source software and benefited a lot both personally and professionally. I even had some small contributions to OpenStack, but it was not big enough to be mentioned anywhere.

I could not make many contributions to the open-source community. Now I plan to change my stand on this matter and start contributing.

Currently, I have a day job as a developer in a successful startup.

I am not sure if the above experience is good enough for the community to trust me but they are good enough for me to start such a project.

All those different wallets were developed by the developer of the games. Almost all of them a standard cryptocurrency wallets. For end-users to go back and forth between different wallets is a hassle. Having all those NFTs, and cryptocurrencies in a single place is a great shortcut.

I am planning to make the wallet code open-source.

I appreciate all of your comments on the matter. I am reading them all and taking notes.  Smiley

Electrum was created by  Thomas Voegtlin  in November 2011. Since then, various developers have contributed to its source code.

Exodus was founded in 2015 by JP Richardson and Daniel Castagnoli.

Viktor Radchenko is the founder and CEO of Trust Wallet, a popular multi-coin cryptocurrency wallet acquired by Binance in July of 2018.

I checked your post history and there's nothing there that can tell us who you are and what you are capable of.

You've been here since 2017 and there's no post I can find where you participated in a wallet software discussion, this is something that confuses me.

Do we really need to have special wallets for gamers, musicians, divers, gravediggers, construction workers and all other professions?

According to Coinmarketcap, cryptocurrency gaming has a 7 billion market cap and 600 million dollars daily volume. This is a big market to build something for. If musicians, drivers or gravediggers have such a market cap, I will consider building something for them.

Well, there are already a few multi chain support wallets, the most popular ones being trust wallet (closed source) and Unstoppable Wallet (open source).

I am well aware of both TrustWallet & Unstoppable Wallet. Last time I checked Unstoppable Wallet, it was a small project and did not have enough support for different blockchains. But it looks like they have improved a lot. I will look into Unstoppable Wallet. I am planning to make the wallet OpenSource or maybe source available.

Don't understand when you mean when you say that you want to unify all those into the single wallet, perhaps develop a wallet integrating features of all the wallets?

All those different wallets were developed by the developer of the games. Almost all of them a standard cryptocurrency wallets. For end-users to go back and forth between different wallets is a hassle. Having all those NFTs, and cryptocurrencies in a single place is a great shortcut.

Haha, this will be a new narrative in the market to develop clone wallets, and name different use cases for them and earn money.
We don't have different bank accounts for different professions.

We have different banks for different industries. For example, there are credit unions that will act as banks for the agriculture industry. There are central banks responsible for monetary policies. Investment banks for institutional investors. I personally work with 3 different banks and have 6 different bank accounts. They all do almost the same thing but they have their own specialty.

There's no problem developing a wallet for gamers as long as the wallet is open-source and proven safe by other trusted developers.

There is another feature some of the crypto gamers are asking is multi-chain support. Currently, crypto gamers are using different wallets while playing different games. I am planning to unify all those wallets into a single one. That will make their lives easier.

There are many developers that I think already did this idea but if you can make it unique like a wallet that can be used offline/airgap and connect games through a QR code then I'm sure many users or gamers will be attracted to use this.

There are quite a number of wallets that are multichain, and I guess yours will be closed source as well, like most of them. Are you going to make it open source? Maybe you would score some points and support from the users from that angle rather than just be like a majority of such wallets that are already established like trustwallet.
There is only one open source multichain custodial wallet I know.

There are great wallets out there, but none specialized to crypto gamers. That is why, I am building a new wallet to make crypto gamers' lives easier. It would be helpful if you guys share any pain points about your current wallet.

I don't think so, and I don't know what is so special about gamers, except they maybe use computers more than other people.
We already have good options for desktop computer like Electrum, Sparrow wallet, and few others for mobile devices.
Bitcoin wallet should be open source, and it's not going to be easy to create new wallet from scratch.

There is another feature some of the crypto gamers are asking is multi-chain support.
You will have to run nodes for all those chains/coins.
Check out Unstoppable.money wallet, that is a good starting point for open source mobile wallets.

Thank you for your reply. I appreciate it.

What do you mean by that, the role of the wallet is to manage your wallet seed, how will it make their lives easy, automating transactions, sending at a specific time, automatic updating of the balance, or easy integration of the wallet with the payment gateway for games.

You are correct, the main feature of a wallet is managing your seed. Other features you have mentioned are quite valid features that can be implemented into this new wallet. Thx for the ideas Smiley

I do not know crypto gamers or how payments are made in them, but if what you are trying to develop is open source and related to Bitcoin, you can transfer your idea to board No. 12.0  (Project Development) Otherwise, what you are trying to develop has nothing to do with the Bitcoin sections.

Thank you for the heads up. I could not find a proper place to post my thread.
