I would not agree that the download wallet app is the simplest. There are so many phishing and malicious software, for a beginner it can be a very tiring experience to recognize a reliable wallet and download it without risk.

There are also many phishing and malicious web-based wallets. If you visit the wrong website, your coins are gone.

I'd rather have a trusted software like Electrum where there is no auto-updates. Remember that every time you visit a website, you're "downloading" the page again, meaning changes can be made on-the-fly by the developer.

Does anyone know if Bitlist have any twitter aka X account page?

Not at the moment.

Does anyone know if Bitlist have any twitter aka X account page?
I tried to search for it but I found nothing, and I think it would be useful to create official page there, since many people are using it to find information about crypto.

I am very sure that there is no official Twitter/X account for bitlist at the moment, as I believe that if there was, link to it would have been included in the bottom plate or contact-us section or part of the website.

I haven't taken notice of this before, and since you already did, I totally agree with you, having an official Twitter/X account is a very good suggestion, it's also part of marketing the site, and maybe a channel on telegram isn't a bad idea as well, it is good a start building a presence on all good social platforms specially X and telegram.

Let's see what icopress has to say..

Sorry, I missed this comment..

I believe it's going to be helpful to create one for the site as majority of crypto users are now on either Twitter aka X or on Telegram. Bitlist needs to get more attention and that type of attention is only possible via Twitter. I hope soon we may see a Twitter page of Bitlist.

I agree with you on that, and I generally turn-off automatic updates on most of the software I use.
It is ok to be notified when new version is released, but I want to control when the this update is installed on my devices.

I am also a supporter of this approach, even though it is old-fashioned. Unfortunately, cloud services and applications where the user only has part of the frontend user interface are taking over more and more primacy, while everything that happens in the background is entrusted to a third party.
That may be ok for social networks, and watching movies, but not for any financial service.

Well, just creating a Twitter/X page alone will not automatically give Bitlist the visibility that it needs, neither will creating a telegram chat or channel for Bitlist do the same.

To achieve that visibility, there should be either marketing on those platforms respectively just like we have here on bitcointalk and Altcoinstalks, or perhaps, we all that are here supporting the project can volunteer to always like, re-tweet and comment on every tweet posted by the Bitlist handler, I myself will not mind including this to my signature campaign tasks aside just posting on the forum..

I believe this in its little way will contribute to Bitlist growth even outside this forums.. But then, the question is, is the team behind the project interested and ready for this? And by team, I mean icopress and Try ninja.

Right, and than there are also smartphones that are mostly doing automatic updates from Android and it's not always easy to disable that.
As for Bitcoin wallet software I think that most of them have manual updates, that includes hardware wallets also, and I think that is a good thing.
Note that important security updates should always be updated on time.

From my long time experience of using android smart phones, apps on Android don't update and install automatically except you allowed it in your app setting through googleplay store..
But then, if there actually be any app that does update and install automatically without the consent of the user of the phone, then it must be an app that is importantly needed to be kept updated at all time for the smart phone to keeping running smoothly.

For even the android OS software doesn't update and install automatically is not allowed, how much more apps running on the same OS..

And in response to the last part of your comment, any app at all, whether bitcoin wallet or not, can be set to either update automatically or not through Googleplay store.

Well, actually that's really needed for proper growth of the platform, but at this stage even having a Twitter account of Bitlist is more than enough, and once that's set up and ready then the team might consider some type of marketing there. However, even without marketing it's still better to have a Twitter profile of the site, and once's it's fully up and running then we as volunteers of this campaign may retweet, the tweets to help it grow.

Yeah, this is exactly in line with my thought as well, which believe I mnetioned in the comment that you quoted, but that's by the way though.

Right now, I think I'm interested in another thing altogether, and that is, knowing how the site generates money for the owner, this information might be personal or confidential to ico press and his developer; tryninja..

I am just compelled to ask because as one of those selected to get paid for wearing the Bitlist signature ad, I genuinely care about the welfare of bitlist and it's owners.. What I am exactly interested in knowing is if Bitlist is currently generating funds to cover for the signature ad campaign expenses? Or is the weekly payment coming directed from ico press's pocket?.

From the signature campaign topic:

Welcome. 

- I would love to host more people, but this is a non-profit campaign and my resources are limited.
- I can say in advance that the campaign will last 7-8 weeks, after which I will be able to evaluate the results.

TryNinja already quoted the part from the signature campaign thread, and I guess you already got the answer.
As you can see, Icopress already mentioned that his resources are limited. We can understand that they have invested an amount to run the campaign, and they probably are not generating anything from the website at this moment. Things can change in the future if they get some sponsorship. I am not sure if TryNinja just developed the ownership or if he owns the share as well. But it seems he owns half the share, and Icopress owns the other half. If so, they probably both invested the same amount to run the campaign.

Well! I am amazed to see the team dedication for this project, as they just invested an amount for paying the members, and on the other hand, they're earning nothing out of this project. Although this is the fact, wearing the signature works like backlinks for the website, which, in short, generates the traffic for the website.

Yeah, for the current time they may be paying out of their personal funds, but I also would like to see it as the running campaign by the manager, and as of the current time only some members are getting rewards from the campaign, but as I said, I would like to see it as the big campaign where the majority of the people will get the chance to earn rewards.

I think with time, that will happen, but it does depend much on how they are able to develop the site, and also what majors they employ to turn the site into an income generating business.
Because to be honest with you, I am not even comfortable recieving payment for wearing Bitlist signature ad when I am 100 percent sure that it's not generating any form of revenue for their owner, but icopress gave me the opportunity and who am I to say no, I am actually very grateful but I did be more happier if and when Bitlist starts generating income, I trust that icopress and tryninja have some great plans for the site, which is why they are willing to invest money in promoting it even at this early stage.

@TryNinja, thanks for that response, I did read those lines in the beginning of the campaign, but I completely forgot, thanks for the reminder.

Actually, it will depend on the result. Icopress is a professional manager who has been handling campaigns for a while now. But from an owner's perspective of a website/service, he will have to evaluate the result of the campaign. If he thinks it is generating traffic for his website, he may continue doing it. He could run a signature campaign for free if he wanted. There are a lot of people who would volunteer for his project. However, I would say they were generous with the campaign and wanted some high-quality posters to represent their service on the forum.

Signature campaigns do not always generate traffic for the website. However, they help the platform get some exposure on the forum and showcase its appearance. It will be tough for them to run the signature campaign for a long time, considering they are not making money at this moment.
