I think this has the potential of being kind of a big deal. I suspect when someone is on an exchange, deciding which token to speculate on, some potental speculators look at the coin’s wallet before buying. They kinda hit a small snag when researching Steem.
They might spend, at most, 5 minutes of research in this area, per coin. And I don’t think they pull the trigger on Steem because all of the wallets are either web based or content centric.
If there was a windows wallet that looked as close as possible as a bitcoin-qt style wallet, I bet that would be enough for that class of users to get onboard.
For this to be even more effective, it’d also be nice if the blockchain supported anonymous public/private key addresses for sending/receiving funds, i.e., addresses unrelated to full accounts.
