The cloud part concerns me just from a functionality point of view. Does it require internet connectivity just for basic operation? It doesn't seem totally clear. I would certainly hope not.

I hate to sound incredibly cynical, but this sounds like a perfect example of Silicon Valley fluff that will never become mainstream. They aren't even the first SV company to be working on this product.

>I hate to sound incredibly cynical

You picked a valid point of concern (if Coin requires connectivity for basic operation), assumed the negative, and then used that assumption to denounce the company as "Silicon Valley fluff that will never become mainstream". Stylised: if A then shit -> I think A -> hence shit.

No, my denunciation is based on the entire concept. It makes a very small problem marginally easier to deal with.
