Although long-term we desire SPV in a browser, unfortunately that is very complicated and the state of software that does SPV in a browser is immature. We are better of for now to use a blockchain explorer. btcd has an optional address index when you can use to get UTXOs. And of course, you can also use it to broadcast transactions. This will worrk for a prototype.

The new version of bitcore is a full node integrated into node.js, and includes the Insight blockchain explorer. This is much better for our purposes than btcd. So I'm going to change the issue to using bitcore instead of btcd.
