Hello,

I've reviewed the (closed-source) code for this wallet. The source has been radically restructured which makes my traditional review format basically impossible. However, skimming over the code it appears to be of fairly good quality (except for the compiler warnings) and I've not found anything that looked exploitable or malicious. Note that because of the amount of radical changes, I can't promise anything, but I've looked it over and thought it looks good and secure with no obvious issues.



Thanks earlz.  I can't say I'm surprised.  If you've ever spoken with Videlicet or seen his input on this forum regarding other people's code, it's pretty obvious he's a very smart developer.  He's implementing a lot of new features that haven't been seen in crypto before, and in doing so is writing a whole new layer of code.  It's actually quite exciting! 

The hard work you guys are putting in is going to pay off soon enough.  Wink Keep up the good work Viz & KryptoKash!

Is your wallet.dat encrypted?

And the security as of now is essentially the same as keeping your cash in a shoebox [encrypted wallet is like a safe] - if someone breaks into your house they can steal it. The holding security against such issues will be solved with the Coinshield Exchange, in which there will be many options to store your money in a safe location - with a physical face and business to verify.

Thank You,
Viz.
No, its not encrypted . I could not open my wallet and it drove me crazy.

Try to clear your appdata [leave wallet.dat]. Then open again - does it have the same issue?

Thank You,
Viz.
still crashed Cry , I had tried serveral times.

Whenever that happens for me or whenever I get a new version of the wallet I save my wallet.dat to another location.

I completely remove the CoinShield AppData folder.

I then remove any and all versions of the CoinShield wallet from my system.

Then I get and start the new version of the wallet and close it before it starts syncing.

Then I replace the wallet.dat in the CoinShield AppData folder with a copy of my backup wallet.dat.

Finally I open the new version again and let it sync.


This always works for me.

This is actually the process I do with every crypto currency wallet and I never have issues.

I know it's a long process but it's better then trying small fixes and constantly getting errors Wink .


I know that im the minority but i still hope my property(CSD coins) got protected as same as my USD in bank. Honestly , one of the main reason why BTC ship started to sink is that the BTC itself is not that as secure as USD in my opinion with disasters such as MTGOX Mintpal in recent months. Anyway, im one of the first group of miners in CSD , i hope thatt it could be a success.
