fav

really like the android app. however, it's just false advertisement to say it's bitcoin enabled. at this point it has nothing special to offer.

I've seen some concerns on that thread:

Quote11. Where will the replacement ads come from? In what way is this an improvement?

Our browser-inserted ads will come from ad agencies and our direct partners. We have several advantages over traditional channels:

    The in-browser targeting engine has substantially more information about the user's activity available to it than traditional tracking methods, while simultaneously providing greater privacy and control for the user.



Just a funny curiosity, if you check the faq.

Quote5. Why aren't you using Mozilla's Gecko engine on laptops?

We were, under a partially sandboxed, multi-process architecture called Graphene. But we did a careful head-to-head comparison and by every measure, Electron/chromium won. We wish Mozilla well, but as a startup, we must use all sound leverage available to us. For web compatibility and in particular Chrome compatibility, this means chromium.

Obviously not BitShares toolkit  :P
