With some delay but much dedication the first version of NoShore is now completed.
Its concept is to make payments simpler for end-users by transferring some of the burden to merchants and back-ends.
The back-end prepares transactions, so that all that remains to do for the user’s device is to sign them.
While, technically, this allows users to stay offline throughout the process, it is important to understand that the reasoning for going this route is not security.
Instead, it is to reduce complexity, so that Monero may become accessible to broader audiences apart from tech-enthusiasts.
The section “The Big Picture” on the project site describes what NoShore’s usage could look like once fully developed.
