Well, "wally" is just a demo application, a command line client to prove a technology. The main development is in places like "node-libcoin", where a wallet platform is being developed. While maintaining a strong commitment to the blockchain engine side of bitcoind, BitPay has enterprise wallet needs that do not necessarily mesh well with the standard bitcoind wallet. Multi-sig, P2SH and other advanced features are key to the future use of bitcoin in large enterprises. Managers, CEOs and other functionaries at a corporation may each have their own wallets / keyrings, and cooperate to sign large value, high security bitcoin multi-sig transactions, for example. -- Jeff Garzik Senior Software Engineer and open source evangelist BitPay, Inc. https://bitpay.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
