All of the above comes together into a very simple and elegant solution which brings you the first native hierarchical deterministic wallet on the Satoshi code base!

Referring to ShadowGo

Seems a lot like /r/OpenBazaar which I've been watching quite closely.. it will be interesting to see which of these markets pics up first and gains the most traction. I do think the UI for OB is better though

I'm a little curious why more of the people here aren't interested in Axis-Mundi.

Lets go through the is-it-worth-using checklist:

  1. Can it be used without installing anything?

  2. If install is required does it work out of the box on Tails?

  3. If install is required do vendors have to leave it running for listings to show?

  4. Is this an altcoin whats the shapeshift fee, for those of us who dont want to be bothered dealing with exchanges and all their shifty antics?

  5. Is there any censorship? If so how?

  6. Multisig? Direct deal? Is this abritrated by reputation-based escrow agents?

  7. Reputation mechanism? Abuse controls?

Answer key or gtfo:

  1. If yes developers real identities must be known.
  2. Yes
  3. NO
  4. <2%
  5. Self-censorship
  6. Yes
  7. Provide examples

After reading TFA this deserves some extra credit:

This is ring signature based crypto like monero so it has actual builtin anonymity. The project uses deterministic builds so the resulting exe can be verified to the source code.

Tried running shadowclient on Tails (linux 32bit), it did not open.
