Our release cycles have become shorter so you can enjoy our innovations faster.
TL;DR Release Highlights:
- Max Privacy transactions bring a dramatic privacy boost
- Atomic Swaps with DOGE and DASH
- Dozens of under-the-hood bug fixes you don’t want to know about, as Beam “just works”
Features:
- Enabled Max Privacy transactions by implementing Lelantus MW protocol with anonymity of 64K
- 2 new coins for Atomic Swaps to trade from the comfort of your wallet.
- Public offline addresses for collecting donations while your wallet is completely offline
- Payment proofs for Offline and Max Privacy transactions
Improvements:
- The exchange rate is shown in the transaction history
Known limitations:
- When using active laser beam channels the CLI wallet should not be offline for over 24 hours
- Once generated, do not offer the same offline address to multiple senders of payments
Points to mention:
- Offline transaction and Max Privacy transaction fees are higher than Mimblewimble transactions and start from 0.01 BEAM per UTXO. The receiver pays their fee (per coin) when the coin is withdrawn from the shielded pool.
- Due to BSV's recent vulnerability, we decided not to add them at this point.
