We are now working together to have our Android Wallet App, and it will be functional very soon.
The Bounty
I have first suggested to our community ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=423339.msg7195903#msg7195903 ) a payment of at least 1,000,000ANI for our first fine working Android Wallet App, but now, as our balance is a little bigger, I propose to offer 2,000,000ANI from our Croudfund balance to the First Animecoin Android Wallet App: an amount fair enough for the works involved, to be paid with the approval of the delivered working App. The community must reach a consensus about it, and I ask that you all please share your opinions.
Also it is VERY IMPORTANT that the community participates in testing and reviewing the App to be received.
I will also pay 200,000ANI from my personal Giveaway balance. And, of course, I am sure that many others will want to tip the developer.
The Features
The security features for this Android Wallet are very important. The ideal is that the wallet user be possible to choose a password to encrypt the private key/wallet.dat. This is necessary to avoid hackers/trojans eventually stealing the wallet balance.
Stealth transactions would be great, but not necessary at the moment: Maybe we could leave this part for a later update, after we develop more on the steatlh transactions (have a look at darkcoin community, they have been discussing it a lot).
It is also very important that the wallet has got QR-code reader/generator feature, in order to make it easier to deal with addresses.
A nice feature would be to allow user customisation of the wallet, so that each individual user could "import" the wallpaper or any image of his/her preference (I, for example, would love to have my favourite anime picture as the "skin" to my Animecoin wallet. In this subject, I was wondering if it would be possible to put a generic cover pic (like this http://www.mfa.org/sites/default/files/imagecache/showcase_2/hero_images/21.6765.jpg , or this http://globerove.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Traditional-Japanese-Art.jpg , or this http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Swords%20in%20the%20Moon/800px-Battle_of_Kawanakajima.jpg, for instance ) and give the individual users the option to customise their own wallet with their own preferred pic (because most will want to put the pic of the anime or manga they love). This solution will have the advantage that we would run no risks with copyright issues.
I request that the community participates with other suggestions for features to our Android Wallet App in development.
What We Already Have by Now
Thanks to testz, we already have the modified https://github.com/HashEngineering/quarkcoinj acording to Animecoin network and it is now published at https://github.com/testzcrypto/animecoinj
It contains all parameters for a network and Animecoin hash function in java and in C compiled by Android NDK (/libs).
testz has succesfully compiled it. It doesn't pass all unit tests but this is fine as he said.
Now what we need, it seems, is to modify existing Quark wallet https://github.com/HashEngineering/quarkcoin-wallet for Anime and use my animecoinj library (it's no more necessary to deal with Animecoin network).
Now that it was possible to compile the animecoinj successfully, the procedure nearly identical to getting animecoin-wallet to compile. The main thing that makes it harder is that animecoin-wallet will depend on animecoinj. as long as the wallet/pom.xml file is edited to change the requirement for quarkcoinj to animecoinj, then it should compile fine (without the unit tests) with maven.
That's it my friends. I am waiting here to hear from the community now.
Let's work togeter in this.
Ganbatte! |
