Token registry to automatically get balance for address in wallet

[oskarth]

User story

As a token holder I want to see the tokens I own automatically. At least the common ones.

Acceptance criteria

Undefined so far.

Suggestions

• 3esmit: Use Parity in chain smart contracts that contains the token list

• 3esmit: Have our own in chain tokenreg list controlled by SNT holders

• 3esmit: User configuration for his own custom tokens

• Jarrad: token registry smart contract or use anothers, detect which network we are on and switch contract address for either, that way interface is the same

• 3esmit: start with config file or token list from parity, if token list get too big we make other list with defaults selected, and a local userlist. I think that instead of using token list from parity, having our own token list controlled by us and later we change controller to SNT quorum (voting by holders).

Open questions

• Non ERC20 contracts?
• Which registry to use?
• What if contract isn't in registry?
• How deal with testing for non mainnet?

@oskarth Is that still relevant?

@jeluard Not sure, you worked on this piece of the code most recently (ERC20). WDYT? Could go either way.

We now have a dedicated idea to track this so I think we can close this issue for now.
