Alpha 12 of the BitShares mobile wallet is ready for download. The only major thing we have left for v1.0 beta 1 is to just finish up the 22 language translations. I should have that done this week then we can finally get this wallet out to the world and get it published in the apple and android app stores! 8)

The cleanest way to upgrade in these alpha stages:
  • Write down your Brainkey (in Settings screen) and TRIPLE CHECK you wrote it down correctly!!
  • Do a fresh Backup to bin file as well!!
  • Uninstall the wallet completely (MANDATORY THIS TIME due to db structure update)
  • Download alpha 11 release: http://bitshares-munich.de/bitshares-wallet/BitSharesWallet-v1-alpha11.apk
  • Install alpha 11
  • Tap on Existing accounts and then tap on the first link in the following screen to type in your brainkey
  • Give it about FIVE minutes to sync up and bring in all your balances and transactions
  • Done.

I hope to have these (droid/iOS/Win) wallets out of alpha and into beta for the masses by end of next week. Wish us luck! :)

I made up some window decals in 2 different sizes.
They have a transparent background, and are the exact size that Vistaprint requires.
Here is what they look like:

 
The Smartcoins POS systems should be ready by March, so I think it would be great if you guys could help me pass these out to local shops:

This friday the 22nd I will try to upload the alpha 9 release of the mobile wallet for you guys too.
 
Please support the OPENPOS token guys, we need all the support we can get, please and thank you! :)

Alpha 8 release now ready for download:
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,20762.msg272396.html#msg272396

Dear Ken, keep up the good work. Personally I'll buy some more OPENPOS next week or so :)

Any word on f-droid? As you guys approach BETA, it might be the right time to make the wallet available on THE alternative to google play for open-source enthusiasts. +5%

Thanx so much karnal MUCH appreciated. Without the OPENPOS token, we wouldn't be able to build these products.
 
I will definitely be working to get us into f-droid as well. Once we are in beta I will begin that process. The more exposure we get, the better!
 
This week we are finishing up the qr code stuff, integrating more updated languages/translations, getting the bugs out of the contacts screen and a ton of more UI/UX work.
 
Everyone we need your help please! OPENPOS is listed in 4 markets now:
  • OPENPOS : BTC
  • OPENPOS : BTS
  • OPENPOS : CNY
  • OPENPOS : USD

Thank you again to everyone who is helping us move the POS and mobile wallets forward! :)

I am adding Overdraft Protection to v1.1.
 
This means that if you are at the cashier and he/she says you owe the store 50 bitEUR for the groceries but you only have 45 bitEUR, then the app settings screen will allow you to set BTS or other assets as a backup funding source for your bill, up to a certain amount. I hope to use the Blocktrades api for this as well.
 
So far, this is looking like a possibility. I want the user experience to be as simple and friendly as possible.

FYI - We will have the alpha 8 release ready by next friday the 15th. It has a ton of UI fixes. Updated translations are being inserted as well. Thank you everyone who has helped us out on that!! :)
 
I will address the speed issue in alpha 9 because right now IMO it runs too slow.

I'm loving these low low prices!
Now, let's get the masses in. Please try out our free mobile wallet and support the project with the OPENPOS token.
 
We are over 42% of the way there already in just the first days since the announcement.
 
If we get the rest of OPENPOS funded this week we can have the Smartcoins POS systems ready by March!! 8)

If there are any other mobile wallets out there in development right now, please make sure your wallet can read Smartcoins POS qr codes for eReceipts.
 
We generate a receipt for the customer as a json file, compress it and base58 encode it for the url that is used to generate the qr code. The customer then scans that qr code with their phone so please make sure your wallets include support for these standards, thank you :)

Can you describe this json format as BSIP here?

We were at 0 referrals on the 3rd, then after the mobile wallet alpha 7 launch (and in less than 24 hours) we are already listed in the "Top Referrers" on http://cryptofresh.com
 
I bet most people are just creating test accounts right now, but still I think this is going to really help BitShares grow. The included 22 languages is just the start.

Thanx again for all your help with the translations too! :)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bUN9N6uIBEloXtWZNXJQ-xG6NaT57FA4sHOvkqRyGE8/edit#gid=1522564669

@kenCode Russian translation finished and ready to use.

When you will integrate this translation into the wallet, for easy support and adding new languages I suggest you to make transifex.com translation project as we do for online BitShares wallet https://www.transifex.com/bitshares/graphene-ui

Beautiful job @testz it looks flawless THANK YOU! :)
I just now made another backup too so that your work is not lost.
Once I get everything uploaded to my github page tomorrow or tuesday then we'll be able to edit the json values right there (transifex does look enticing though, assuming it will edit the existing json files). I made it so that it's super easy to add additional languages in the future too.

There is 5 fields where the brand BitShares Munich or BitShares Wallet does not appear correct: O45, O54, O63, O64, O73
I've fixed that. The reason I used the word "wallet" instead of the expression "BitShares Wallet", is that it sounds a bit awkward in Polish, but if you are determined to preserve the branding in this way, I'm fine with that.
+++++ cool, thank you again jakub :)
 
Regarding the field A73, I 'm not sure what is the meaning of "..." in this context.
Quote
On the home screen, tap on the QR code, or tap and hold on the BTS… address.
Please explain, so that I can translate it properly.
EDIT: I guess by "BTS..." you mean an address like this "BTS7hC5RAxkenTAfaBncgyH4RNJKtkPJURXnuCabqCf7iu5QYL3ZW", right?
+++++ right, exactly.
 
If that's the case, shouldn't such scary technical elements be entirely hidden from the user?
+++++ I have given that extensive thought actually, those cryptic looking addresses might confuse some users (like my Grandma). I'll leave it there for now so we can launch, but I am not adverse to removing it, will just wait to see what the community thinks about leaving it on there.
 
Quote
I also stuck the word FINDER in there for consistency with the other languages.
What is this Finder thing in this context: "Allow the Finder (v2.0) to..."? Is it some module within your app?
I translated it literally, without much understanding what is meant here.

See the roadmap for details of v2:

I'm going to upload it to my github on monday or tuesday this week. I would love it @xeroc if you and the other top Devs could do a security and efficiency audit on it too, thanx so much you guys! :)

I listened to the Mumble with @kenCode and @Chris4210X today and I need to say this: what they've done is an enormous undertaking.
Those guys are extremely efficient entrepreneurs.
For me, as of now, this is the best news in the category "third party development" since Oct 13.
PS. I've fixed the Polish translation in the Google spreadsheet.
Just to let you know, those automatic translations are not reliable - about 80% of it was wrong or very misleading.

@jakub thank you so much for those kind words and all of your help with the Polish translation! I just now made another backup so that your work is not lost too. There is 5 fields where the brand BitShares Munich or BitShares Wallet does not appear correct:
O45, O54, O63, O64, O73
I also stuck the word FINDER in there for consistency with the other languages. Other than that change it looks awesome!! So thank you sincerely for helping us out with that. If you're ever down here in the Munich area please stop by and say hello! Here is our Meetups calendar too:
http://www.meetup.com/bitshares-munich
 

Thanks for the quick response, seems you are already on top of most things. Happy New Year and best of luck!

Thank you again and please help us spread the word about the OPENPOS token!
Happy New Year's and cheerz from Munich! :)

+5% Screenshots look great and it seems like a very reasonable cost.

Feel free to answer these questions in the other thread if you would prefer to keep content there.

If your fundraising falls short perhaps you could create a worker proposal for a portion of the funding, with BTS receiving a share of the profits relative to the % it funds. Given the project may add overall value to BTS for a low cost it may be supported from that perspective too.

What is the route a merchant would take to convert BTS related tokens to fiat in their bank account.
(Cost, steps involved.)

You state 50% of profits not revenue, what are the expected monthly running costs of the business for year one?

The hard part is convincing merchants to adopt a payment option like BTS which currently has few users..
Will you be involved in/Do you have any marketing plan to promote this to Odoo businesses?

Possible ideas:
- Perhaps a brochure aimed at merchants
- Referral programme integration. Maybe a link a merchant can give a customer so that when the customer downloads the app, they become the primary referrer.

Thank you @Empirical1.2 :)
 
The fundraising won't fall short. No Worker needed right now.
 
As for profits and such, @Chris4210X would have to cover that as he does all the financial stuff with ccedk.
 
As for converting BTS for their bank account. This is where CCEDK will come in with their new OPEN.EUR, OPEN.USD etc tokens and their bridge. Once Openledger is running that new bridge then I will get with Ronny again and see how much of it we can implement with the mobile wallets, what is entailed etc and then I can figure out what it will cost. I would not expect more than a few thousand bucks to add it tho. We have the bulk of the wallets done already just need to pretty it up now and have the top Devs beat the hell out of it with us, see if we can break it etc before I upload it to apple app store, google play, etc.
 
The 50% question, that is one for @Chris4210X
 
Convincing merchants as I said in the mumble will take time. We have to bullet the points for them. Business owners have no time for bullshit so if we have a 5min "pitch" and just show them how fast and cheap and secure our system is and the many ways in which is can help them to expand and draw in new customers then we have a real winner here and can finally look at mass adoption of Smartcoins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZw950LCifY
 
I am not a marketer IMO, I Make. Chris and members of this community (especially OPENPOS Hodlers) are the best marketers of these wallets and pos abilities as they understand it better than anyone and can just show business owners and others via Meetup (http://bitshares.meetup.com) and online why BitShares is the best and why they can start using our wallets and POS immediately.
 
Multi-lingual flyers and business cards are done, I did those months ago:

Referral button is already in the app as you will see, it is on the contacts screen, top right corner. This way if you get a friend to sign up?r=your_account then you get the referral. Please spread the word about the OPENPOS token, we are about 20% of the way there now. Will be in mumble again next friday as well! :)

I listened to the Mumble with @kenCode and @Chris4210X today and I need to say this: what they've done is an enormous undertaking.
Those guys are extremely efficient entrepreneurs.
For me, as of now, this is the best news in the category "third party development" since Oct 13.

PS. I've fixed the Polish translation in the Google spreadsheet.
Just to let you know, those automatic translations are not reliable - about 80% of it was wrong or very misleading.

+5% Screenshots look great and it seems like a very reasonable cost.

Feel free to answer these questions in the other thread if you would prefer to keep content there.

If your fundraising falls short perhaps you could create a worker proposal for a portion of the funding, with BTS receiving a share of the profits relative to the % it funds. Given the project may add overall value to BTS for a low cost it may be supported from that perspective too.

What is the route a merchant would take to convert BTS related tokens to fiat in their bank account.
(Cost, steps involved.)

You state 50% of profits not revenue, what are the expected monthly running costs of the business for year one?

The hard part is convincing merchants to adopt a payment option like BTS which currently has few users..
Will you be involved in/Do you have any marketing plan to promote this to Odoo businesses?

Possible ideas:
- Perhaps a brochure aimed at merchants
- Referral programme integration. Maybe a link a merchant can give a customer so that when the customer downloads the app, they become the primary referrer.

Thank you @Empirical1.2 :)
 
The fundraising won't fall short. No Worker needed right now.
 
As for profits and such, @Chris4210X would have to cover that as he does all the financial stuff with ccedk.
 
As for converting BTS for their bank account. This is where CCEDK will come in with their new OPEN.EUR, OPEN.USD etc tokens and their bridge. Once Openledger is running that new bridge then I will get with Ronny again and see how much of it we can implement with the mobile wallets, what is entailed etc and then I can figure out what it will cost. I would not expect more than a few thousand bucks to add it tho. We have the bulk of the wallets done already just need to pretty it up now and have the top Devs beat the hell out of it with us, see if we can break it etc before I upload it to apple app store, google play, etc.
 
The 50% question, that is one for @Chris4210X
 
Convincing merchants as I said in the mumble will take time. We have to bullet the points for them. Business owners have no time for bullshit so if we have a 5min "pitch" and just show them how fast and cheap and secure our system is and the many ways in which is can help them to expand and draw in new customers then we have a real winner here and can finally look at mass adoption of Smartcoins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZw950LCifY

@Stan and others, we could really use your marketing expertise ...maybe make the formal announcement for us??
 
The OPENPOS uia just went live a couple days ago and it's kind of buried in the Project Development thread:
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,20762.0/all.html

We will be talking about this at/after the next hangout. :)

Does anyone here have a Blackphone 2?
I'd like to see if we can run the wallet app on that phone as well.
Allegedly, that Silent Circle phone runs a flavor of android called Silent OS.
Please let me know asap, thanx, ken

Absolutely, this is for the rooftops! I'm waiting for more merchant tools and easy use of BitShares products to make integration into businesses much easier! That will help supercharge utility, demand and referral!!

Superb!
