A simple BCH wallet for first-time users. Send, receive, backup—without the jargon. Built for adoption.
Bitcoin Cash aims to be usable as electronic cash by everyone. That requires a wallet that doesn’t overwhelm: clear labels (send / receive), simple backup (recovery phrase with plain-language explanation), and BCH-specific UX (CashAddr, confirmation expectations) so users know when a payment is done.
New users abandon wallets when faced with 12–24 words, long addresses, or unclear “pending” states. BCH has predictable confirmation times and low fees, so the wallet can abstract away RBF and complex fee logic for the default case. First-time holders need a path: create wallet → backup (with clear “why” and “how”) → receive (QR + CashAddr) → send. Advanced options (custom fees, UTXO management) can live behind a menu so the main flow stays simple.
Design a mobile (or web) wallet with a strict happy path: create, backup with short explanation and optional cloud backup, then send/receive via QR or paste. Use CashAddr and BCH-specific copy (“You’re receiving Bitcoin Cash (BCH)”). After 1–2 confirmations, show “Confirmed” so users understand finality. Open-source the app and document design choices (e.g. why we hide RBF by default). Consider accessibility and security (biometric lock, no seed screenshots).
