I’m new to Grin and very fascinated about it. so I just read that Grin has no amounts and no addresses.
Please let me ask, does this imply that there will be no haradware wallet support, like Ledger Nano S, to store my Grin coins?
I’m used to keepin my coins safe on hardware wallets these days.
We don’t see any technical barriers that would stop Ledger from supporting Grin on their hardware wallet. They just need time to study grin wallet behaviour and to port to their wallet.
Yes, that would be cool. One of the main priorities for Grin, together with usability / standardization and atomic swap. Would be cool to spend time on Atomic Swap rather than Payment Channel, as Grin is still a baby and Atomic Swap can be a direct source of community, usability and network growth
Do you think is worth to work on that before the next hardfork? honestly?
These months I will be working on completing the Grin++ API documentation and, also, in a GUI for the mobile version of Grin++, but if someone in the community gently decides to donate a Ledger Nano I could probably take a look on how to do this, although I don’t think is worth to work on this before the next hardfork.
Considering that the hard fork is in a month. I think this might be worth a try to start working now on the lower level logic (the BOLOS app) and take into account the Slatepacks RFC. Depends on how fast you are really might take a while to digest the Ledger architecture.
