Goal of the project

The goal is to be a mainstream payment software for merchants, power-users, and Bitcoin enthusiasts, to deliver an integrated package of a full-node, on-chain, and off-chain payments, with best privacy and security options as the default. Provide a simple and modern interface to send and receive payments, free of technical jargon and overwhelming configuration options.

And for all of this to be built on a robust and secure code and architecture.
