Release Highlights

🟠 Enhanced Bitcoin Node Integration

🎨 Refreshed UI with Icons & Animations

⚙️ Dedicated Config Files Per Network

🤯 Stronger & Smarter Coordinators

🛠️ Refinements & Fixes

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.7.0 is a stabilization release that not only strengthens reliability but also brings a fresh look and smoother performance.

🟠 Enhanced Bitcoin Node Integration

Bitcoin node connectivity is now more seamless. RPC endpoint handling has been refined for smoother setup, with support for onion-service RPC interfaces.

Additionally, Wasabi no longer bundles bitcoind binaries, while block downloading has been simplified and made more dependable.

🎨 Refreshed UI with Icons & Animations

The interface has been given a polished update. Subtle animations and a balanced color scheme breathe new life into Wasabi’s design, making it both cleaner and less aggressive.

⚙️ Dedicated Config Files Per Network

Each network Mainnet, Testnet4, and Regtest — now has its own independent configuration file. Switching to test networks is easier and your preferences are always preserved.

🤯 Stronger & Smarter Coordinators

Coordinators are automatically published as onion services right out of the box: no manual Tor setup needed. Coordinators can now also run on pruned nodes in blocksonly mode.

Plus, fallback fee rate providers were implemented (mempool.space and blockstream.info), ensuring accurate fee estimates, even if your node can’t provide them.

🛠️ Refinements & Fixes

  • Full-RBF by default – All transactions are treated as replaceable.
  • Resilient HTTP communication – Smarter retry handling makes connections sturdier.
  • Seed recovery fixes – Annoying typing issues are resolved.
  • Sharper fee estimations – Precise decimal calculations with no rounding loss.
  • NBitcoin updated to 8.0.14 – Latest Bitcoin protocol improvements included.
  • Clearer terminology – “Backend” is now called “Indexer.”
  • Lean codebase – Legacy components like TurboSync and BlockNotifier removed.
  • Safer Coinjoin handling – Excluded Coins can only be changed when Coinjoin is paused.
  • Donation Button removed from Main Screen – The button is gone, but donations are still possible via the search bar.
  • Conflux by default - Better Tor configuration for improved connectivity.

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.6.0 "Prometheus" marks a significant milestone in our survival strategy, delivering major improvements in resiliency by eliminating dependency on centralized infrastructure while making it harder to stop.

💥 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 and resilience. This improvement allows clients to operate fully sovereign and independent of specific servers.

💻 Full Node Integration Rework

The previous integration was replaced with a simpler, more flexible system which is not limited to a specific Bitcoin node fork and doesn't depend on the node running on the same machine as Wasabi, or require modifications to the node's configuration.

Simply enable the RPC server on your node and point Wasabi to it, ensuring all Bitcoin network interactions happen through your own node, bypassing third parties for getting blocks, fee estimations, block filters, and broadcasting transactions.

🔐 Create & Recover SLIP 39 Shares

You can now create and recover wallets with multiple share backups using SLIP 39. Simply specify the number of shares and the required threshold for recovery (e.g., a 2-of-3 scheme requires 2 of the 3 generated seed phrases to unlock the funds).

This offers additional flexibility for backups, as individual shares can be compromised without endangering funds.

Special thanks to Trezor (SatoshiLabs) for sponsoring this amazing feature.

💪 Nostr Update Manager

We're introducing a cutting-edge mechanism using the censorship-resistant Nostr network to receive update information and download locations instead of relying on GitHub's goodwill.

This considerably improves resiliency, allowing updates even if GitHub is inaccessible. Naturally, the manager still verifies that displayed updates are signed by our secure certificate.

🤯 And more…

We've also been busy under the hood with several miscellaneous improvements:

  • Updated Avalonia to v11.2.7, fixing numerous UI bugs (including restoring Minimize on macOS Sequoia!).
  • Added a configurable third-party fallback for broadcasting transactions if other methods fail.
  • Changed our Windows Code Signing Certificate, now using Azure Trusted Signing.
  • Fixed numerous bugs, improved our codebase, and enhanced our CI pipeline.
  • Provided the option to avoid using any third-party Exchange Rate and Fee Rate providers (Wasabi can work without them).
  • Rebuilt all JSON Serialization mechanisms avoiding default .NET converters. Serialization is now stricter.

🔮 A Glimpse of Tomorrow

This new version brings us closer to our ultimate goal: ensuring Wasabi is future-proof.

Our main focus areas for survival are:

  • Ensuring users can always fully and securely use their client.
  • Making contribution and forks easy through a codebase of the highest quality possible: understandable, maintainable, and improvable.

Simultaneously, we aim for Wasabi to remain a top-notch choice for self-custody Bitcoin wallets, bringing privacy without frustration.

As we achieve our survival goals, expect more cutting-edge improvements in Bitcoin privacy and self-custody.

Thank you for the trust you place in us by using Wasabi.

Stay tuned 👀

Release Highlights

💪 3rd Party Providers for Fee & Exchange Rate

👨‍🔧 Quality of Life Features

📦 Backend and Coordinator packaged for Linux

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.5.0 continues to enhance Wasabi's resilience and contains small but insightful improvements to the interface.

v2.5.1

v2.5.1 Fixes a bug with the recovery workflow introduced in v2.5.0

💪 3rd Party Providers for Fee Estimations & Exchange Rate

Fee rate estimations and exchange rate providers are now configurable.

Previously, this information was provided by Wasabi's backend. This change aligns with our long-term goal of completely removing dependence on the backend.

After this release, Wasabi will be significantly closer to achieving that goal, with most basic wallet features functioning without an active backend connection. You can read more about the remaining steps on GitHub.

👨‍🔧 Quality of Life Features

In the last version, we introduced a donation button to gauge community interest in funding Wasabi's future. We have been overwhelmed by the support and interest shown by our community, including long-time users and privacy enthusiasts.

We want to thank you for believing in Wasabi and for your support, whether through using the software, providing feedback, contributing financially, or contributing to the open-source project in any form.

To show our gratitude, we've designed this release for you, our community. We've finally addressed some of the oldest bugs and feature requests that have been long-awaited!

Listing all the improvements would be too lengthy, but here are some examples:

  • Randomly skipping rounds was removed
  • Coinjoin settings & profiles are now all in a single tab
  • More information in the status icon
  • Resync button now available in Tools

    And much more...

We expect these improvements to significantly enhance the overall experience of using Wasabi as your daily Bitcoin wallet. Take a tour or read the release details on GitHub to see all of them!

📦 Backend and Coordinator packaged for Linux

The Debian package now includes two extra binaries: one for the backend (Wallet API) and one for the coordinator (Coinjoin API).

This makes it easier for community members to run a backend and/or a coordinator, private or publicly accessible, which lowers the barrier to contributing to the resiliency of Wasabi's infrastructure against potential attacks and technical failures.

📝 Release Notes in the client

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.4.0 brings send to Silent Payment addresses!

🤫 Send to Silent Payment addresses

Silent Payments are privately reusable static addresses. While sending Bitcoin to them is as easy as sending to regular addresses, it is not possible for an observer to link several payments to the same Silent Payments address.

They are useful to send an address to multiple persons at the same time (tips, donations...) or to make multiple payments between the same entities (salary, rent...).

Wasabi is now one of the first wallet to support send to Silent Payment addresses, and we hope that more wallets will join! We are working on allowing receiving, please bear with us!

🎁 Donation Button

Wasabi is Free Open Source Software (FOSS).
No service is provided, and therefore it doesn't generate any revenue.

However, maintaining and improving the software requires ongoing effort, such as maintenance, continuous improvement, bug fixes, testing, documentation, regular updates etc...

While Wasabi is one of the best tools available to use Bitcoin privately, achieving flawless financial-sovereign privacy is still a work in progress.
There are many features yet to be implemented, and your support can help make them a reality.

Additionally, contributors cover static costs, such as server expenses and release management, using their personal funds.

A donate button has been added on the main screen.

It uses Silent Payments, so it's a great way to test that new feature!

By donating, you’re directly supporting the developers who work tirelessly to maintain and improve Wasabi Wallet and make Bitcoin privacy accessible for everyone.

🧪 TestNet 3 -> TestNet 4

Instead of TestNet 3, Wasabi now uses TestNet 4.

This new network has slightly different mechanisms that mitigates some of the problems that were undermining TestNet 3 to the point that it is basically unusable.

While using the test network will be much more enjoyable now, coins from TestNet 3 don't exist on this new network. You must use a faucet and get yourself TestNet 4 coins.

📝 Release Notes in the client

If you've reached this far, you've probably noticed that the release notes highlights are now available in the client! They are displayed every first launch after an update.

Full release notes are still available on GitHub.

⤴️ Tor Update: Upgraded to v13.5.9
🚫 Buy Anything Button Disabled

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.3.1 is a stability-focused release packed with critical bug fixes and preparatory changes for upcoming major features.

🪲 Notable Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the transaction broadcaster displayed an error, while the transaction was successfully broadcast
  • Resolved a problem with DNS endpoints for remote Bitcoin nodes
  • Improved the amount decomposer to prevent privacy leaks when using the payment-in-round feature
  • Fixed sorting tables by amount
  • Sometimes small rounds were not recognized by the wallet, leading to improper anon score computation

💫 Settings & UI Enhancements

The Settings layout has been refined, optimizing space for a more streamlined user experience.

Additionally, some new UI features have been implemented:

  • Coin lists now display the address associated with each UTXO
  • Added functionality to copy addresses directly from the Coin List view
  • Consistent formatting of Fee Rate to 2 decimals without trailing 0

🚫 Buy Anything Button Disabled

This feature, launched nearly a year ago, allowed users to access the premium ShopinBit concierge service directly through the wallet.

This version disables it, for the following reasons:

  • Limited usage among users
  • The same service is fully accessible via the ShopInBit platform
  • Occupies valuable interface space
  • Improving the experience would require additional maintenance costs

Starting with this release, the button is removed, unless there are active or completed orders.

In the next release, the feature will be completely removed from the codebase.

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.3.0.0 release

This version of Wasabi introduces major improvements to the user experience with a more intuitive and useful interface, while continuing our efforts to enhance and streamline the codebase for easier maintainability and better building blocks for further improvements.

🌐 Enhanced Tor integration

We’ve completely rewritten our Tor integration, replacing custom code with a more efficient, standard HttpClient. This not only improves performance but also enhances code clarity, making it easier to review which identities are used in specific contexts. This reduces potential errors and improves the wallet's overall security.

📊 Better BTC amount formatting

Amount formatting has been significantly improved across the wallet, offering clearer readability for both small and large balances, whether you want to read as BTC (decimals) or Sats. The aesthetics of all screens presenting amounts have been revisited to be smoother and consistent throughout the application.

🔍 More insight on transactions

The Preview Transaction and Transaction Details dialogs now include a lists of inputs and outputs. This long-requested feature offers insight into the privacy-enhancing effects of coinjoins and the level of anonymity achieved with each transaction. Additionally, it is now visually clear how privacy suggestions improves transactions.

💰 [Beta] Payment in coinjoin (RPC only)

Our Payment in coinjoin feature is now officially in beta! It is currently accessible only though the RPC. While this feature is still in development and lacks certain functionalities, we encourage users to test it and provide feedback. Learn more about it in the Documentation

🔒 Trezor Safe 5 & ColdCard Q support

Hardware Wallet Interface (HWI) has been updated to version 3.1.0 along with support for Trezor Safe 5 & ColdCard Q.

🔍 Help to setup and find a coordinator
⏫ More accurate CPFP fee estimation
📉 Safer protocol
🪲 Backend optimizations

Release Summary

Wasabi Wallet v2.2.0.0 release

This version of Wasabi is full of extra features, improvements, and fixes. The highlights are:

🥕 Taproot receive addresses

Users can now choose taproot when generating a new receiving address. Spending a taproot input is 16% cheaper compared to spending a native segwit input. Users aren’t the only ones that benefit - Bitcoin nodes can verify taproot’s signatures faster than legacy ones, so the entire network gets a little speed boost.

🚀 Faster transaction broadcasting

A more sophisticated transaction broadcasting mechanism was introduced to make the process faster. Transactions are now broadcast to multiple nodes in parallel (through the Tor network) and fail more quickly if the transaction is rejected by the network. Users who upgrade will notice it now takes half as long to send their coins.

🔍 Help to setup and find a coordinator

A new message is now shown when no coordinator is configured, along with some help to understand how to find and setup one.

⏫ More accurate CPFP fee estimation

The CPFP feature now takes into account the fee paid by the parent transaction. In previous releases, the child transaction assumed the parent paid 0 sats in fees, and thus always overpaid for the speed up.. This improvement will be especially significant in high-fee environments, where the CPFP feature is most useful!

📉 Safer protocol

In order to avoid introducing unknown incentives and to limit risk to users, the coordination fee concept has been removed. Only coinjoin coordinators that don't charge any coordination fee continue to be supported.

🪲 Backend optimizations

Users who run a Wasabi backend can now do so with a pruned node and significant CPU/RAM savings. This makes hosting a backend much cheaper and helps to decentralize this component which Wasabi clients still depend on.
