So many memories! A cool ride through Wallet history
In 2011 was Armory and Multibit.
In 2014 was Schildback Android mobile wallet.
Where is Electrum mentioned?
Missing these 3 important ones is like ignoring all the history.
This is not a wallet history sorry.
Why is debit shit cards included in this List? You ruined it for me..
