What is Signup?

Information exchange is a non-custodial stage as an assistance for engineers to assemble BCH decentralized applications. The center components of the Signup comprise of:

Key Signing Hub: A non-custodial wallet on your program to work like an equipment wallet, mentioning for assent from the client and marking exchanges.

Structure: Utility capacities and simple to utilize API for engineers to demand clients for various kind of exchanges without uncovering the specialized side of building an exchange on the blockchain.

Foundation: Providing all the framework needs of a decentralized application for engineers so they can zero in on building astounding client experience for their clients.

Information exchange is a general login like Facebook Login catches. As a client, in each site you visit you can login to your Signup wallet and be recognized utilizing your exceptional Cash Account. In the event that you are inexperienced with Cash Account, it's a particular for a comprehensible record name that is legitimately associated with your BCH address (Credit to Jonathan Silverblood).

The web application you signed in can demand you for various sorts of exchanges (installment, putting away information and so on) and you get the chance to decide to acknowledge or deny it. Those web application you sign in, could never approach your private keys and there is no requirement for a program expansion to be introduced.

What is new in the signup web wallet?

There were many reasons why we decided to rewrite the platform after its early release this year. Some of those reasons are as below:

1. Privacy enhancing browsers like Brave or Safari would not allow the old Signup to work properly (like many other crypto DApp wallets including MoneyButton or Portis). The new version works perfectly fine in any browser!

2. Early version didn't have a scalable design, the new wallet is written fully in Preact (similar to React but lighter) with an easy to maintain component pattern. Also it looks better!

3. The user experience of confirming every transaction (one by one) was discouraging to developers. In the new version we use Access and Spend Tokens to allow users to trust the app within a certain boundary.

They have also mentioned some new upcoming updates:

- Faster exchange preparing

- Support for Cash Script savvy contracts

- Support for OP_RETURN exchanges (information stockpiling use cases)

- Mobile wallet for IOS and Android

- Better utility libraries

- More instructional exercises for web designers

- Sample applications with various structures

What are Spend Tokens?

Spend Tokens are cryptographically marked tokens that Signup wallet creates and send it to the web application. The application can utilize the Spend Token to perform discretionary exchanges on the client's wallet inside the characterized limits permitted by the client. Those limits are greatest sum permitted, and a termination which token would be futile subsequently. Here is what it looks like when a web application demand your wallet for a token:

This wallet is only a popup inside your program!

So as should be obvious, a site can demand you for a spending plan of $1.0 to be gone through inside 1 hour existing apart from everything else you give the consent. Despite the fact that there is $12 worth of BCH in your wallet, the application can't spend more than the permitted financial plan inside the restricted time. You can return the authorization whenever you wish!
