Duniter (previously uCoin) is a libre software allowing to create a new kind of P2P crypto-currencies based on individuals and Universal Dividend.
Inspired by Bitcoin and OpenUDC projects.
Software is still under development, and no production currency using Duniter exists for now.
However, it already exists a testing currency named Test_Net. Want to test it? Two ways.
$ wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/duniter/duniter/master/install.sh | bash
$ duniter init
$ duniter sync duniter.org 8999
$ duniter start
and you are done! See Install documentation for further details.
In the world of crypto-currencies, Sakia Wallet would be called a SPV client. It is a graphical client connecting to the network. See this tutorial to join in the testing currency with Sakia.
