Wasabi v1.0.3: macOS Emergency Release

Summary

The latest macOS update broke Wasabi's user interface. This release contains the fix.
Another notable Tor related fix made it into this release. About once or twice a month the Tor guard your wallet connects to fails to see the whole network including our backend, this sometimes caused Wasabi to be unusable for hours. We mitigated this issue by introducing a fallback entry point.

Note, if you are updating from source code you must update your .NET Core, too to the 2.2 SDK version: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download

Note On Updating From Source Code

If you are using Wasabi from source code, you should also upgrade your .NET Core SDK to the 2.2 version: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download
Finally proceed with the usual git pull && git submodule update --init --recursive commands.

Newbie Guide

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

FAQ

  • Where is Wasabi's working directory located? Configuration, wallet and similar files can be found in %appdata%\WalletWasabi folder on Windows and in ~/.walletwasabi folder on Linux/OSX.
  • 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. If you are running a Tor daemon not on the default port, then you can configure it in Wasabi's Tools/Setting menu. If Wasabi is using your Tor daemon, then bear in mind that some Linux distributions' package repositories ship with out of date Tor. In that case, either remove or shut down that Tor of yours or make sure it's not out of date: Check Tor version: tor --version. If it's not at least 0.3.2.2, then see this writeup on how to update it.
  • Why are the binary sizes so big? Wasabi is using client side filtering and these filters must be synced before using the wallet. The size of these filters are currently about 90MB. These filters are included with the binaries to avoid initial wallet syncing.
  • Requirements? x64, linux, >win7, >osx.10.12.

Summary

The 1.0.2 Release is a monster release, packed with performance/reliability and UX improvements. Most notably we have revised the CoinJoin UX by adding per-coin feedback, more sophisticated coin selection, select/deselect all functionalities, mixing state improvements and many more.
Furthermore we wrote a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal, called "Address Paste Improvement," which may guide non-Wasabi developers to implement this convenience feature.

Summary

The 1.0.1 Release mostly consists of smaller fixes those came up due to the influx of mainstream users. The most notable improvements are the implementation of OSX cmd+... copy-paste related keys (it was previously working with ctrl) and fixing a bug that prevented users with non-English Linuxes to use Wasabi.

Summary

This release contains some minor bugfixes, and performance improvements. Notably it makes the wallet file load about 5-10 times faster. From this release we are also distributing PGP signed Windows installers and Linux archives for those who would not like to build the software from source code.
We also started working on a new website, which shows the latest coinjoins and the volume of the all time mixes in real time. This website will replace https://www.wasabiwallet.io/ eventually, for now it can be only reached only over Tor Browser: http://wasabiukrxmkdgve5kynjztuovbg43uxcbcxn6y2okcrsg7gb6jdmbad.onion/

How To Install?

1. Get The Requirements

  1. Git: https://git-scm.com/downloads
  2. .NET Core 2.1 SDK: https://www.microsoft.com/net/download (Note, you can disable .NET's telemetry by typing export DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1 on Linux and OSX or set DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1 on Windows.)

2. Get Wasabi

Open terminal/command line and type the following command:

git clone https://github.com/zkSNACKs/WalletWasabi.git --recursive

How To Update?

git pull && git submodule update --init --recursive 

How To Run?

Open terminal/command line from your your WalletWasabi/WalletWasabi.Gui folder and type the following command:

dotnet run

Notes

  • Configuration, wallet and similar files can be found in %appdata%\WalletWasabi folder on Windows and in ~/.walletwasabi folder on Linux/OSX.
  • Note, OSX is NOT supported at this point, we are currently working on fixing the bugs we have in that platform. You may follow our progress here: AvaloniaUI/Avalonia#1789
  • If you already have Tor, and it is running, then Wasabi will try to use that first, if not, then Wasabi will use its built-in Tor. If your Tor is out of date, then you'll get many error messages. Make sure it's not out of date: Check Tor version: tor --version. If it's not at least 0.3.2.2, then see this writeup on how to update it, or just stop your own Tor and let Wasabi use its built-in, up-to-date one.

Release Notes

  • This Beta Release is stable.
  • We plan the 1.0 Release for October 31.
  • In the Beta Release you must build Wasabi from source code. You will not have to do it from the 1.0 Release.
  • OSX is not supported in the Beta Release. While Wasabi already works on OSX, we deemed our OSX GUI to be unstable, therefore not recommended. OSX users will be able to use a stable Wasabi from the 1.0 Release. You can follow our OSX stabilization work here: AvaloniaUI/Avalonia#1789
  • In the Beta Release a mixing round is triggered in every 24h or every time when 100 mixing participants reached. The difference of the 1.0 Release is that, a mixing round will be triggered in every 7 days.
  • The mixing round denomination of the Beta Release will be 0.01 BTC at first and we will gradually increase it to 0.1 BTC until the 1.0 Release. At which point we will keep it there. We decided to do this based on your feedbacks.
