Summary

  • If you have a full node running, from now on Wasabi will ask blocks from it instead of random peers. This is the first step towards complete Bitcoin Core integration.
  • Updated the built in Tor to the latest stable.
  • Removed GTK dependency on Linux and now we are directly using X11. So if previously you were not able to run Wasabi on your Linux distribution, from now on most likely you will.
  • Added debian package.
  • Filter download now twice as fast, because compressed filters are transferred.
  • Downloadable binaries are 3 times smaller, because filters are not shipped with them anymore.

Newbie Guide

While setting up Wasabi is straightforward, even a Linux wizard with the longest beard can get stuck on the most basic tasks. Consider taking a look at the Installation Instructions guide.

Pro Guide

If you want to build Wasabi from source code or update the source code check out these instructions.

FAQ

  • Where is Wasabi's working directory located? Configuration, wallet and similar files can be reached from the menu: Help/Data Folder.
  • Can I use my own Tor instance, instead of Wasabi's built in one? If you already have Tor, and it is running, then Wasabi will try to use that first. If it is not running, then Wasabi will use its built-in Tor.
  • Requirements? x64, linux, >win7, >osx.10.12.

Changes those aren't listed in the summary:

  • Data Folder is now accessible from the Help menu.
  • PubKey and KeyPath can now are accessible from coin and receive address expandable menus.
  • When clicking close, the coins will be automatically dequeued from mix instead of a window preventing exit.

  • Fix wallet state bug when receiving or spending multiple unconfirmed coins, closing and reopening the wallet.
