Topic: We're building a wallet - what features do you want? (Read 2049 times)
From our hearts we can tell Bitcoin team that we love Bitcoin fully systems very much as usual. If we can be a member of Bitcoin team or family its really great opportunity for us and very honour much happiness offers for us. We can do anything for our great Bitcoin family. Thanks

Good wallet need serious security and fast BTC transfer times. I think good wallet need small amount of RAM. And not Web based, because of security.

lightning opening of the client(better optimization of the code)
2fa directly added to the client, so you need to login to use it, and on top of that a msg is sent to your phone, this should remove the problem of newbies losing coins because of their low competence in security

For the moment I only have one idea which I really would like to see on any Bitcoin wallet and it's making the ability for users to create a Multi signature adresses and it gets added to your receiving adresses and not creating it by cmd like on Bitcoin Core which is a little bit difficult if you ask me .
- Multiple coins from the same HD code (BTC, LTC, DOGE, MYR are the main ones)
- Easily switch between wallets without using File -> Open (like you have to do in Electrum)
Pretty interesting suggestions, wouldn't mind seeing this type of functionality
Making something that everyone will love is very hard. I am a developer, and I need Electrum-like functionality with different HD-wallet-format supports, and access to hundreds of addresses and tens of wallets with easy clicks. For me, Electrum works best for address management and whatnot.
However, I'm not like most people. They want a Mycelium-like wallet that's easy, gives an address to receive, and lets you send without hassle.
If you're making a new wallet, build one that has completely Electrum functionality (so that is a fork of Electrum), with the following features:
I'm an amateur Python coder (but can really do just about any language if you want), and would be interested in helping with the project. Let me know if there's any desire for another goofy programmer.

Why a new wallet? Couldn't you help develop an existing one?
Sure, if our visions were 100% compatible but developing our own means we have creative control.

I think the most important for wallet is security, improve your security to highest level is the best way for better wallet.
There's already quite secure wallets e.g. Armory and Dark Wallet but I'm wondering if these are the most ideal for a new user. Imagine being a Bitcoin virgin and using one of these wallets and its talking about all these things like "multi-signature" when "cryptocurrency" sounds intimidating enough. You would start to wonder if you've downloaded the wrong program. Don't get me wrong - these wallets are excellent and we need these features but perhaps it should be abstracted so its easier to use. I know something like a third-party signing mechanism and SMS codes would be a good compromise.

These are just small devices which are cheap. Possibly some open source hardware wallets, some new internet of things innovations. The possibilities are endless, you just need them to be compatible
I see what you mean. I still have a few more unanswered questions regarding achieving this level of cross-platform execution but its definitely possible.

Are there any particular cryptocurrencies this wallet should support? I'm trying not to encourage crap coins but I think there's a lot of legitimate innovation in the alt-coin space and I want to make sure I don't miss anything.
Doesn't blockchain.info have it already. I've seen it on their mobile app for iOS, but anyways, if it were implemented on a larger scale, it would be better. How about compatibility with many devices, such as arduino and stuff, this will surely increase your user base substantially. Make a nice feature rich API too. Finally, I'd like to say that at the core, security should be of the highest level
There are a few services who offer that, and it has been built into quite a few wallets as well. It's just a personal feature I like to use
In regards to what you came up with: raspberry pi support is a definite must
Do you mean a full wallet with the whole blockchain or a light wallet? I assume you mean a light wallet because the blockchain wouldn't fit that well on some of these devices
. Out of curiosity, what applications do you envision for a wallet running on these devices? It kind of gives me a glimpse of new applications for open commerce systems but I'm sure I'm only scratching the surface here.These are just small devices which are cheap.

Is this going to be a normal wallet or is it going to be a web wallet?
Also, I think improved security will always be a good sale point

Depends what the users what. I never really liked the idea of a web wallet because it seemed insecure to me but a lot of progress has been made with multi-sig so it might be more secure now.

A Bitcoin directory with business near you to spend bitcoins would be a good start
