Thank you. I feel as though this type of task is beneath you. I heard somewhere that "official" forums are in the works, if not you guys might think about adding a couple people as mods for these ones. I know it's been discussed before but the forums are growing.merged, sorry for late response![]()
Totally agreed.Thank you. I feel as though this type of task is beneath you. I heard somewhere that "official" forums are in the works, if not you guys might think about adding a couple people as mods for these ones. I know it's been discussed before but the forums are growing.
Will the official forums let me sign in using evolution and also let me "like" with a tip?Thank you. I feel as though this type of task is beneath you.

I have no idea if my comment holds any weight in regards to "official" forums. I think if some officiall evolution forum did exist tips could be easily integrated. That's just a baseless opinion of mine though so don't quote me.Will the official forums let me sign in using evolution and also let me "like" with a tip?
why do we need an email address for evolution?
That's not an answer. You do need an email address to sign up in evolution. Why? What's the problem with standalone aliases?Optional.
I'm not sure, I was just trying to remind everyone these are extra features, not mandatory ones.That's not an answer. You do need an email address to sign up in evolution. Why? What's the problem with standalone aliases?
You will see how optional it will be when every mechant implements the "pay with Dash" button via DAPI and it asks for your Dash EVO alias.I'm not sure, I was just trying to remind everyone these are extra features, not mandatory ones.
I would really like to hear the logic about the email addresses. I guess there is one and I have few ideas about what that logic might be but I'd like to hear it straight from the horse's mouth so to speak.That's not an answer.

On the Evolution side, the main purpose of the email is to prevent abuse of the account system and give users the ability to prove they own the account. If there is no confirm method, it's easy to spam the system with new accounts and we get the option of being able to send notifications to the user, being able to pay to an email, retrieve your account by proving you own the email, etc.I would really like to hear the logic about the email addresses.

This can be easily done regardless with a script. One can also use emails without registration like this one https://mailinator.com/ or this one https://www.guerrillamail.com/ or many other such email services.On the Evolution side, the main purpose of the email is to prevent abuse of the account system and give users the ability to prove they own the account.

I agree, personally I would like to make it optional too. The reason the prototype needs an email is because it's just a prototype, all the finer points / options haven't been added yet, just working on the basics. Emails make the system easier to use for the reasons I mentioned and I think most users would rather tie an email to their account as a backup to proving they own the account. But pure anon users won't, so we need to make sure they can still access Evolution too, it's just not been built yet.This can be easily done regardless with a script.

Blockchain.info doesn't require you to enter an email in order to create an account. How come they can do without? It's purely optional in their case.
I definitely also had similar concerns, though for me I'm more worried about metadata.
However, having listened to his conference talk more closely, I feel a lot more comfortable because the way I understand it - and it's not immediately clear - they've built an advanced distributed API and messaging system, and this new wallet is simply their own specific implementation. As was pointed out here - and again it wasn't clear at all! - this new wallet coexists with existing wallets.
In other words, third party developers can come along with their own wallets and applications, and it might function in a very different way.. for example, someone might implement two factor authentication using google authenticator or sms. I can imagine a visa gateway (optional) being built on top of this. I suspect this system is a lot more powerful than we first thought.
