ECP-12: Ether-1 Mobile Wallets + Desktop Light Wallet Discussion: 23 May 2020 to 31 May 2020 Voting: 23 May 2020 to 31 May 2020

ECP Originator: @FallenG - (ID: 424647595265097730) ECP Sponsor: @Dylie (ID: 215055968298467329) ECP Motivation: Lack of In-house Light wallet, Missing iOS platform & lack of continuity on Mobile Platforms. ECP Summary: Create a Unique Mobile Wallet for Both iOS + Android as well as a Desktop Light Wallet (Win, Linux, macOS)

Details: As we are well aware apple was extremely strict on our review due to us using open-source code which is already present on the app store, this result in hours and hundreds of dollars being thrown away, our android platform and iOS platform have a huge disconnect from a Visual and functionality standpoint. For these reasons I'm proposing that we fund the development of a mobile wallet which is cross-platform - this would be written in VueJS & use Cordova/Capacitor to be run on iOS & Android. Such a task is better to outsource, I already have a developer in mind for this project. He's done work for etho.black before, He's extremely reliable as well. We also lack a Desktop Light wallet, whilst I've done the UI and built the main functionality inside of our VueJS light wallet, I lack the knowledge to build our the cross-platform and major backend functionality, the same developer will be able to handle this.

The 2 Main Parts to this are:

The features of said wallets:

During development, all progress will be posted to the regular #dev-activity channel as well as screenshots/videos when applicable.

This will require $750 in funding, it will need to be paid in USD, as for how to secure that funding, I'd like to ask the council if they could provide options.

Looks like a solid idea.

perhaps we can find a way to pay for this using paypal?

pistol22cal commented 4 years ago

I love this ! --- I simply say we ask the community - Lets get your paypal up here on the ECP and see if we can get some donations. Community doesn't need permission to forward fund an ECP and lets be honest, we all know this is going to get approved. Its cheap and the guy does great work. He built the Asymetrex desktop app and it's beautiful!

I'm 100% for this proposal, we just need to work out the funding logistics.

I can only speak for myself - if its a 1 or 2 sec difference and 1 is prettier than the other - go for the pretty one --- this day and age it has to look sharp!

I agree with Pistol,must look good,eyecandy ftw.

Primate411 commented 4 years ago

After the wallets are built and the external dev's work is finished, will the etho.black team be able to maintain the wallet and fix minor issues or add minor features?

fallengravity commented 4 years ago

Depends on what you consider "minor" but yes, we've planned ahead & that is the reason, we've opted to utilize VueJS since our website is already built with it and we are familiar with the language.

dylie commented 4 years ago

Hey, the ECP got 5 council upvotes. So this means we can proceed the development/payment. How do we plan on funding this? Because it's an 80 day lead time on total development (app + desk wallet), The longer we wait, the longer it will take to start developing.

Kind regards,

Dylie

What's the view from the other council members that we haven't heard on this?

Would like to see everyone their opinion :)))

pistol22cal commented 4 years ago

I can give 50$ to this just tell me where to send it

fallengravity commented 4 years ago

You can send directly to: ethan@ether1.org or use PayPal’s donation feature through: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=ethan%40ether1.org&item_name=Funding+ECP-12&currency_code=USD&source=url.

If you send through donations $2.50 of your donation will be given to PayPal as a fee or if you send directly to my paypal you will pay a $5 transaction fee.
