"One-click" mobile-optimised MerkleMine dApp / WallETH

[chrishobcroft]

This issue defines a product to simplify the process of MerkleMining Livepeer Tokens (LPT) on behalf of an address using a mobile browser, and integrated with WallETH to sign the transaction.

That means to submit a proof transaction to Ethereum Blockchain which has the effect of releasing the genesis-minted Livepeer Tokens (LPT) to the address, as well as releasing LPT to the address being used to submit the transaction.

Inputs:

• ETHAddress of account eligible for LPT

Interface:

• text field: ETHAddress
• button: "claim LPT" for this ETHAddress

Process:

• user enters ETHAddress
  • ability to scan a QR code is a "nice to have"
• user clicks "claim LPT" button
• dApp validates the following, showing progress indicator and "success" or "failure" of each validation:
  • whether ETHAddress is eligible (i.e. that it had >0.1 ETH at block 5,264,265)
  • whether ETHAddress still has LPT to be claimed
  • whether user has WallETH installed
    • if not, provide link to WallETH
• if everything is valid, the dApp should open WallETH and populate the transaction for final approval and submission.
• user approves transaction in WallETH
• once the transaction has been mined, the dApp should show:
  • summary of how many LPT have been transferred to which addresses
    • a nice to have would be some kind of pie chart showing a total of 2.44LPT and how it was split between addresses
  • links to txns in etherscan.
  • would you like to mine for another address?

Process:

user enters ETHAddress
ability to scan a QR code is a "nice to have"

that sounds like horrible UX - users should only enter addresses manually in very rare situations - ideally never.

But I need to understand the use-case better first - what is the reason for the whole process?
