The underpinning contract with the developer for this grant has been finalised and I have updated the proposal at Daology accordingly.

• Added in the setup of another NuSeed instance (item F) at no additional cost.
• Extended timeframe release 1 with one week

Thanks for your consideration.

I will put on hold this custodial grant vote until the liquidity issue is solved, hopefully quickly.

[masterOfDisaster]

Impeding development saves some bucks, but prevents useful tools from being created.
I’d rather see an NSR sale than saving money here.
The liquidity operation costs a lot of money and there’s a lot of potential for saving, but that road isn’t followed seriously.
Why make cuts here instead?
This has the potential to increase adoption.

Also note that the grant amount is split into multiple payments: 4,000 upfront, 8,000 after the first release (including upfront payment for the second release) which could be a couple of months afterwards, and 3,650 after the second release. The full amount wont be put on the market all at once. Details are in the proposal text: https://daology.org/proposals/b90d9bcdbaee28337bc017e605e21f4b40109c9d

Is Nudroid still download chain to my phone?

i cann’t copy my address as a receive

Is Nudroid still download chain to my phone?

NuDroid doesn’t download the chain, just the headers. After upgrade even the headers won’t be loaded

i cann’t copy my address as a receive

Not sure if I understand the problem. There is by default only one address to receive funds on. There is no straightforward way to add other addresses. Moving the funds and creating a new wallet by deleting and redownloading the App is probably the easiest way. Don’t forget to make another backup!

It is not mentioned in the proposal, it seems.

And

BDroid6QBUXXt7QFD51BixZzmEgwmTBMNX , 16000

the 16K are paid in a single transfer.

Am I mistaken?

[MatthewLM]

Please view the bottom of “OVERVIEW RELEASES, TIME AND COST” where it says “Proposed contractual payment schedule is as follows”. This shows the planned payments. The 16,000 is given to Cybnate as the custodian and then 15,650 is paid to myself in accordance to this release and payment schedule.

[MatthewLM]

You can copy a NuBits address with the following button, though note that it copies the entire URI.

voted.

[huafei]

should i wait for download all the block?

[MatthewLM]

You can receive funds without full synchronisation, though you will have to wait for the synchronisation before your transaction shows as confirmed and you can spend the funds.

[huafei]

oh no…

i still have to download the block

[Cybnate]

Make sure you vote for the upgrade. No need to download all block headers any longer.

A post was split to a new topic: NuDroid integration with NuLagoon

[Cybnate]

This grant passed! It is exciting to see further investments in NuDroid.

I’ve just countersigned the contract and will transfer the first term of 4,000 NBT in next 24h. This will formally start the contract and with that the development for release 1.

Developer Matthew has started the work on NuBitsj and while he is busy for a while I like to share you a few ways you can use the NuDroid wallet for soon:

When you happen to live in the Swiss town of Zug you can pay for public services with NuDroid. It is a trial, but still.

Swiss Town Accepts Bitcoin for Public Services

When you happen to be a user of the popular Lastpass password manager you can settle for the paid accounts with NuDroid’s shapeshifted Bitcoin’s anytime soon. http://thebitcoinnews.com/password-manager-lastpass-hints-at-bitcoin-acceptance/

The gamers amongst us probably already know that popular service Steam also accepts NuDroid’s shapeshifted Bitcoins from the NuDroid wallet. http://www.pcmag.com/news/344114/steam-now-accepting-bitcoin

Unfortunately you all need to have a bit more patience as Shapeshift.io is still building on their infrastructure after the hacks and have yet to add back NuBits. The response I had upon querying them is that they couldn’t provide a timeline but that they will be supporting all coins supported before the hack. I’ve good hopes that they will have added back the NuBits coin before release 2 (receiving Bitcoins and others with NuDroid) will be ready to be tested.

Update: Great news, just noticed that NuBits have been added back to Shapeshift.io. That means you can again pay everywhere Bitcoin is accepted with your NuDroid wallet.

Considering the recent downtime of Shapeshift I wonder how expensive an integration of Blocktrades would be.
Technically it should be possible similar to Shapeshift, but what do I know…
Having a conversion selector displaying the rates of both exchanges would be nice

From https://blocktrades.us/about

Our conversion services can be directly embedded into 3rd party wallets and web sites via our public REST-based API. Full documentation on our API is available at https://blocktrades.us/api/v2/explorer. For most integrations, only use of the high-level API function “initiate-trade” is necessary.
