Wallet guide

Sending payments

In the send view:

  • Add one or more recipient addresses and amounts.
  • Review the available balance shown by the wallet.
  • Choose a fee rate. Higher rates generally aim for faster confirmation, but actual timing depends on network conditions.
  • Set the transaction privacy level. Larger values can increase transaction size and fee.
  • Add a payment ID only when the recipient specifically provides one.
  • Review the final confirmation, including the recipients, amounts, and fee. Confirm the address from a trusted source before approving.

The Subtract fee from amount option reduces what the recipient receives by the fee. Read its on-screen explanation before enabling it.

Payment requests can be pasted from the clipboard or imported from a QR image using the send view's Paste request and Scan QR controls. A QR scan here uses an image file; it is not a live camera scanner. Imported details still require your review.

Receiving payments

Use the receive/address view to choose an address, copy it, and display or save its QR image. Confirm the address before sharing it. A QR code is simply a convenient way to encode payment information; it does not prove that a payment has been received.

Activity and transaction details

Use the transaction list's search and filters to find activity. Open a transaction's hash in the explorer, copy the hash, or open the detail view using the available row actions. Export transaction history to CSV, TSV, or JSON when you need a separate record.

An explorer page is an external website. Avoid pasting private wallet data, passwords, or recovery information into it.

Send proofs

The wallet can generate a send proof for a transaction and check a proof supplied to you. A proof can help demonstrate transaction details, but it is not a substitute for independently checking the transaction in your wallet or a trusted explorer. Share proofs only with the intended recipient because they may reveal transaction-related information.

Wallet-daemon connection profiles

Connection settings allow you to use a custom wallet-daemon endpoint and save named profiles. A profile stores the endpoint host and port for convenient selection; it does not establish that the endpoint is trusted. Use a daemon endpoint you control or trust, and confirm its host and port carefully.
