GoldCoin Plus+ Community Project
« on: July 02, 2016, 11:35:01 AM »
It has been suggested to me that the community develop an online wallet that would have a companion App for mobile.  :)

I will use the name "GoldCoin Plus+" to eliminate any confusion with our core reference applications. The domain GoldCoinPlus.com has been registered for future use.

This development project could be based on the blockchain.info open source. However, the website back-end will need to be custom coded since blockchain.info does not publish it's website source. The GoldCoin Plus project would be a community project apart from core and its current reference applications.

My idea would be to separate the projects in this way:

Goldcoin Core = Goldcoin daemon, QT reference client, and current Android app under development.

Community Project = Goldcoin Plus+ online wallet and companion app.

Contributors could obviously work on both projects, but I think making the distinction is important for clarity moving forward. GoldCoinPlus would be an independent project much like blockchain.info is not a part of Bitcoin core.

We can continue refining this concept. But I think it would be of great benefit to our currency if we could turn this idea into a reality.

The server with the wallet and block explorer will be a tough task.  I may be able to help with the Android Wallet.  The server may require reverse engineering from how the Android wallet handles the data.

I think it would be great if you could lead the mobile development. I'll start looking for a server/web person this week.   :thumbsup:
