Open kcw-grunt opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The problem is Litewallet is connected directly connecting the Litecoin network and in so any inconsistencies in the performance of Litewallet are mainly due to the Litecoin network. This is can actually become an asset for Litewallet since most SPV wallets are routing their transactions through curated nodes (controlled by the wallet entity)

Describe the solution you'd like When the network is show, Litewallet should show the delay and why. There are a few things that can be probed regularly and can become a sticky component of Litewallet.

Why?

Litewallet has a unique and difficult position in the market. It only manages one crypto and it is product of a non-profit. So, it needs to differentiate from other SPV wallets. They all use custom nodes, and various tricks to make the UX better. The resources of Litewallet are more modest, and we can expose/educate users and teach them more about Litecoin.

Options

Some of the network parameter are available and can be shown in Litewallet. A list of those parameters could be:

Parameters Description
High network fee highest fee for transaction
Medium network fee median fee for transaction
Low network fee lowest fee for transaction
mempool number of transactions that are lining up to be confirmed or rejected
hops to node number of hops this Litewallet must make to get a confirmation
ping to node number of ms this Litewallet for connection
Last sync time How long it took this Litewallet to sync
parameter 1 ???
parameter 2 ???
