So watching the development, it seems like much of the issues that are holding-up/stopping a working release are NFT's. Who cares that much about glorified jpegs in-lieu of an actual working app? I haven't been able to use your wallet for over a month after reporting a simple bug of no special characters for BIP39 passphrase, which was fixed long ago. How come it seems so difficult to make a point release for things that have been fixed so people can start using the wallet? |

From the homepage: “Unstoppable is the first multi-coin wallet that supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, and fully shielded Zcash, as well as other coins, and it has a strong, user-centric architecture in which the users own their own keys and their own privacy." Zooko Wilcox-O'Hearn From me: We can say that either the CEO of ECC doesn't use a strong passphrase over his seed phrase, or he hasn't tested the basic functionality of the product he's endorsing. Not sure which is worse news... Also, that quote is untrue. If you go to any other non-custodial wallet's webpage, they all explain how they allow you to retain your own keys and privacy while supporting multi-coins. Who thought this was a great quote to feature on the homepage? |

Thanks for pushing the rest of the pending NFT work to the next release, looks like we could have a release today or tomorrow. Would love to see eCash support in upcoming releases. Thanks for the code. Love. |

There is so much to do to make this mostly functional for just for legacy coins, that I am now even more disappointed to see the energy-sucking NFT focus. No importing or sweeping of private keys. There is so much you can do with HD BIP39 to make wallets awesome, it's almost like devs are actively avoiding making their wallets functional to protocol. In other words; imagine you have libbittorrent, but only design clients to do single downloads only, and limiting the swarm to 2 peers. Hypecoins ruin the ecosystem once again, yesterday it was ICO's, now we have NFT's making devs too dizzy to focus on making a better base product. NFT's have found a way of spamming the blockchains that were designed to be spam-resistant. |

By the way, there is a cool little open-source tool for deriving BIP39 info for many coins. You may want to try to integrate it if you'd like to support most coins out there with one single change/overhaul. https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39 Best wishes getting your functionality up to speed with the rest of the other multi-coin wallets out there. |

I have reviewed all your suggestions regarding restore using various private key types. This feature was not in our schedule actually, that is why it was not implemented yet. I am going to schedule it into next sprint (moreover it will be the only feature in this short sprint) and here is the list of changes we are planning to apply:
The reason why these features had not been implemented initially is that in certain restore type we need to hide (filter out) non-suitable blockchains from UI (Coin Manager, Wallet Connect and other places). That is why this feature was postponed for later releases, but with current app architecture we can add this type of features with less effort. Please let me know if this pack of restore types would be enough, or should we consider more options. |

Thanks to the devs for all the work over the past weeks! Lots of issues addressed and some excellent improvements towards greater usability.
Some of these fixes will allow us to use full character passwords with our multi-lang BIP39 seeds. Hopefully support for watching xpub addresses also.
Considering the number of changes, can we get a point release so we can start using the Unstoppable wallet?
Thanks as always, looking forward to the Unstoppable journey. Great work!
