Wasabi Wallet v2.6.0 "Prometheus" has been released, delivering these major improvements:
Support for Standard BIP 158 Block Filters.
Wasabi can now synchronize using BIP 158 filters without requiring a backend/indexer. You can connect directly to your own node, significantly enhancing synchronization speed while allowing full sovereignty and resilience.
Full Node Integration Rework.
The previous integration was replaced with a simpler, more flexible system, not limited to a specific Bitcoin node fork. Simply enable RPC server on your node and point Wasabi to it, bypassing third-parties to interact with the Bitcoin network.
Create & Recover SLIP 39 Shares.
You can now create and recover wallets with multiple share backups using SLIP 39. Specify the number of shares and the required threshold for recovery.
Nostr Update Manager.
A cutting-edge mechanism using the censorship-resistant Nostr network has been introduced to receive update information and download locations instead of relying on GitHub's goodwill.
And more.
- Updated Avalonia to v11.2.7
- Added a configurable third-party fallback for broadcasting TXs
- Rebuilt all JSON Serialization mechanisms (now Stricter)
- Changed our Windows Code Signing Certificate, now using Azure Trusted Signing
