Encrypted wallet serialization deprecated!

• The use of encrypted wallet storage is deprecated. In particular this means:

  • Secp256k1HdWallet.serialize/.serializeWithEncryptionKey
  • Secp256k1HdWallet.deserialize/.deserializeWithEncryptionKey
  • DirectSecp256k1HdWallet.serialize/.serializeWithEncryptionKey
  • DirectSecp256k1HdWallet.deserialize/.deserializeWithEncryptionKey

  If you are using any of those methods, please comment at #1796.

  A scream test was established which slows down the key derivation function a lot. This simulates the use of a pure-JS implementation of Argon2 which we will use on one of the next releases. If this causes problems for your app, switch back to ^0.35.0 and comment in the issue.

• Migrate from libsodium to different implementation in order to reduce bundle size and improve compatibility.

  • ed25519 now uses @noble/curves
  • xchacha20poly1305 now uses @noble/ciphers
  • Argon2 now uses hash-wasm
