Eric, it seems there is some discussion of this that appears in google.
Wallety appears to be an open source attempt at this although I haven’t tried
the code yet. Others appear to be open source and available in various
repositories.
Over all though, the blockchain algorithm itself shouldn’t have
anything about it that’s inaccessible, it’s just math. I wonder if there are
any skilled blind coders (your self maybe) or someone else that would take this
on as a project. I myself am not a coder at least not on this level, I script
for various things but that’s about it. Seems like a problem that should be
able to be solved.> On Mar 30, 2017, at 6:07 PM, Eric Oyen <eric.o...@icloud.com> wrote: > > you aren't the only one that's been looking. in the last 3 years, I have > found no such animal for any platform.
