As a fanatic of programing, I was thinking on creating a crypto wallet with open-source, pro-privacy and a lot of security options.
I wanted to ask here if there is already a wallet with these qualities, and also that you give me ideas of whatever it takes to develop it.
One wallet kind I haven't seen (but I may be wrong) would be something like Monero's Feather.

Feather does not provide data about addresses to servers. Instead, it downloads ranges of blocks and then, on the user's machine, searches the blocks for relevant transactions, and then deletes the block data again.

You could imagine it as a "pruned (almost) full node without blockchain storage".

This has the big advantage that you don't leak address and transaction information to the full nodes / servers, which may be operated by chain analysis companies who gather information about "wallets".

I hope you are still around, otherwise my merit was too rushed Wink

Hello everyone!
As a fanatic of programing, I was thinking on creating a crypto wallet with open-source, pro-privacy and a lot of security options.
I wanted to ask here if there is already a wallet with these qualities, and also that you give me ideas of whatever it takes to develop it.

There are many wallets which are focused on pro-privacy and are open source. If you want to create a wallet that outperforms these, you need to ask yourself what they are lacking, what kind of problems they do not address and where you could improve on that.

I want to have more wallets that support Bitcoin Silent Payments, so far Cake wallet is the best option for this new feature, and it has other cool stuff.
There are also wallets that have integrated coinjoin like Wasabi, and best option for security is combination with open source hardware wallets.
Starting a brand new wallet in 2025 is not something I would do in 2025, but you can do your own thing.

Silent payments are an interesting concept. Most so for OP because the protocol is upgradeable and focuses on privacy. If I were OP, I would definitely want to start building on top of that.

I have not tried it out yet in cake wallet, but it seems like a promising thing.

If you're a programming fanatic you should've been busy reading & replying. You've asked for ideas to develop your privacy wallet but aren't reading them so I don't know if you're serious. What's your git ?
