🟠🛡️ Bitcoin-Safe.org Desktop Wallet - Questions & Support

[satscraper]

Latest Bitcoin-Safe release, namely 2.2.1. Good to learn that wallet has now support for   Keycard Shell HW  and implements careful checks for input signatures which seems nice for safety. On top of that, it can find peers through  BIP157 compact block filter DNS seed, which in my view should help with connecting to the network.

Thank you @satscraper for sharing all the updates, much appreciated 🙏 There will soon be a new release, as we found a few bugs and the biggest news ever, we are soon ready to release the (first ever?) Bitcoin Subscriptions plugin and Wallet Notifications plugin. They will have both a free trial period, and we are looking forward for testers.

If you are a group or organization using multisig to make regular payments in bitcoin every week or month, please reach out, we would like to demo what we have been working on in the past 6 months.

Bitcoin-Safe v2.3.0 · A wallet for Bitcoin Treasury Organizations
Release notes: https://github.com/andreasgriffin/bitcoin-safe/releases/tag/2.3.0
Download: https://bitcoin-safe.org/en/download/




Bitcoin-Safe desktop wallet hit today a big milestone with a first intent to make bitcoin open-source software sustainable for the long run. With the release of v2.3 it includes the first two paid plugin services for organizations that aim to keep up with bitcoin accounting books.

The first step has been to enable users to be notified of every transaction, even when the app is silently running in the background. Secondly, it enables the unique, and perhaps first-time seen in the industry, feature to enable bitcoin scheduled and recurring payments.

Both plugins are available for a trial period. We invite everyone to test it out, report bugs if anything unexpected happens, and provide feedback.

Reminder: Bitcoin-Safe provides secure and pre-founded testnet wallets, enabling anyone to try the functionalities to increase confidence when dealing with on-chain transactions.

🛡️ More Robust Transaction Broadcasting
Broadcasting is now more resilient, if the first broadcast times out, your transaction is automatically relayed through other peers, so your payments get through.
