“Android Wallet for Grin (GRIN) - APK Download Link / Easiest Way to Install?” “Hello Grin Community, I am trying to get an Android wallet for Grin (GRIN) cryptocurrency. I have checked the Grin++ GitHub releases page () but couldn’t find a direct .apk file to download. I also looked on the Google Play Store, but found a “Girin Wallet” which is not the correct one. Could you please guide me on the easiest and most secure way to install a Grin wallet on Android? If there is a direct .apk download link, that would be very helpful. Thank you for your help!” यह ---

Grim use it for your own risk because no audit not even once and Grim scam crypto from russian scammers. In this way we need also Beam wallet for full happiness to demolish Grin brand. ---

Grim is from Grin contributor @ardocrat. Grim uses native grin-wallet under the hood which has been audited. Grim itself as GUI has not been audited but will likely become part of the core wallet for Grin which is an indication the code is of good quality. Note that Ironbelly also never had been audited and has been used safely for many years. ---

Ardocrat may be a lot of things, but calling him a scammer needs evidence. He didn’t even apply for funding on Grim, did it out of the goodness of his own heart. Regardless, I’m CLI til I die for mining and use the “unaudited” Grin HTML wallet with a Trezor so my funds are safu. ---

We should cherish all our developers and not accuse them unfounded of anything. If there would be one thing that has been historically been done wrong in this projects, it would be that we (including myself) have been too permissive to community members insulting, attacking, harassing and disrespecting contributors and developers. Anyone who actively contributes to this project, especially unpaid and working on a voluntary basis, should be treated with the utmost respect. In most cases such a negative attitude stems from ignorance, but that does not mean we should permit it. We should speak up and explain that this is not good behavior, damaging to the project and it will not be permitted by all of us who wish the project to do well. Remember that the most easy way to attack a project is not through the code, but by attacking its people, its governance, by creating a toxic negative environment. We should stop that kind of behavior ✋ ---

I didn’t anticipate pooled mining and its effects on the security of the network. Making Grin a competitive monetary system while also preserving its security properties is not a trivial problem, and we should take more time to come up with a robust solution. I suspect we need a better incentive for users to run nodes instead of relying solely on Ardocrat altruism. Why not open source it and do the development in public with others. ---

Grim supports either a builtin or a remote node, and both the node and wallet functionalities are using the reference rust implementations. You’re not trusting a default remote node in Grim like you were with Ironbelly. All the code is open-source so it is reviewable by anyone, and it’s very simple to compile it yourself so you don’t need to use the precompiled binaries if you’d prefer not. Where Ardocrat is from is irrelevant - the character of any individual person is not determined by their government. In the year since its first public release Grim has proven itself to be by far the most user-friendly GUI solution for Grin users. All you do is talk shit here. Try contributing something of value sometime. ---

I can’t get your points, you said grim is scam in your post, but the source does not mention scam… What you’re trying to prove here or just want to troll? If you think Grin is useless, why you’re staying here? Save your ‘time’ first. ---

[Grim mobile wallet](https://gri.mw/#downloads) works great. Following the conversation above I feel that everybody is correct. On the one hand there is no reason to mistrust the Grim wallet, and on the other hand it should be audited. A security audit would not impugn the author @ardocrat of any wrongdoing but rather reassure users that nothing has been overlooked security-wise. The Grim mobile wallet is not (AFAIK) in the Play Store. I am not sure why this is the case but asking users to override their android device’s security features to install an unvetted app which is unavailable in the Play Store is not a good look, and frankly, given the millions of dollars held in BTC by the Councils is unjustifiable. Additionally if Grim wallet code is not open source and on GitHub or some other version tracker then perhaps it should be. After all, paying for a security audit of a closed source app only tells the users that the current version is secure and safe to use, not future versions. There are only two solutions as I see it, and both can be put into motion. 1. Pay for a security audit of the Grim wallets, desktop and mobile versions. 2. Release a fully open source and official Android app written by Grin core devs. This too would benefit from a 3rd party security audit I store the bulk of my Grin in the CLI wallet and use the Grim app for smaller amounts. Under the current circumstances it would be inadvisable to do anything otherwise. I repeat that this is no reflection on @ardocrat but only sensible since writing secure wallets is notoriously difficult. I can think of few better uses for Grin’s treasure trove of bitcoins than to perform security audits, as well as funding future development. I am sympathetic to both sides of the argument here and see no reason why we should be having these arguments at all. Code reviews are part and parcel of running projects like Grin.
