Hello,
I’m writing as a long-time user of SCRT network, a BUTT holder, and part-time agent who worked with Brendan a bit in the past. I’m not a developer, although I am an artistic type outside of crypto.
Opening my Keplr wallet today, I see red exclamation points popping up near some of the assets. When I reload it, it works better. However this still feels like an unreliable beta mode which would put off a lot of first-time users who expect a smoother experience (they might not even try reloading the window.)
I’m aware API’s are the issue and have been for some time. I’m excited about the mobile Fina wallet, and am wondering if there could be a desktop web-extension version of Fina, but Steven says it’s the servers, not the wallet, which is the issue. Moonstash says there are other API’s, but poking around in Keplr, even as a long-time user, it’s not obvious as to how to change the API. Is there a way this can be adjusted automatically by Keplr according to which is working best?
I’m guessing “endpoints” under “settings” has something to do with it, but it’s not obvious and comes with a warning “experimental feature.”
A note about personalities - I believe in Steven as a developer and as an artist myself, I know creative types tend to come with dramatic character. I hope we can learn to be tolerant and patient with each other especially given the frustration coming from the current bear market.
I have no idea what’s appropriate when it comes to funding development. However, I’ll leave you with this quote from an old Andre Cronje blog which impressed me: “I know traders and investors have a saying ‘do you want to be rich, or do you want to be right.’ I never understood this saying, but I finally do. Unfortunately, I want to be right… Bull markets, cause bear development. And bear markets, cause bull development.” - April 2021
