Dead/Abondonet wallets.

[satscraper]

Dead or abandoned wallets are risky to use , the trivial statement in fact.

So it’s probably time to open the dedicated thread that lists such projects, so everyone can be aware that they should no longer be used.

Relevant projects:

1. BitPay (formerly Copay)  
The latest release, v12.12.2, is dated July 28, 2022. Relevant pull requests are also old. These are clear signs that BitPay has stopped maintaining it.

2. Breadwallet
Discontinued after being acquired by Coinbase. Users were advised to migrate to Coinbase Wallet.

3. Bitcoin Wallet (known as the Schildbach Wallet in the community)
I couldn’t find the relevant page on Google Play. GitHub commits haven’t been updated. It appears to be abandoned.

4. Jaxx Liberty  
Both desktop and mobile versions are effectively dead, as there have been no updates in their repositories.

5. Airbitz. Replaced by Edge.

6. DarkWallet. "as of 2020 it’s not really maintained anymore.", @BitMaxz.

7. Hive Wallet . "the last submitted commit is from the year 2017." @BitMaxz.


To be continued.

Please help me extend/refine this list.

Since this list also includes those wallets that have their official "retirement" announcements, not just abandoned wallet.
You may include the old MultiBit Classic/HD and mSigna wallets.
Just DYOR about the related details and dates.

I did some research for dead Bitcoin wallets, and here is my list below that you can add to your list.

~ DarkWallet ~
Wiki page: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/DarkWallet
Opensource: https://github.com/darkwallet/darkwallet
This one seems abandoned and is considered dead because the last commit was 10 years ago. The weird part is someone claimed the domain, but there is no answer from their GitHub page, so be careful; the domain may be bought by the scammer.

~ Hive Wallet ~
Wiki Page: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Hive
OpenSource: https://github.com/hivewallet
This one is dead; the last submitted commit is from the year 2017.

And I think the last one is the Samourai wallet since the founder was arrested in 2024; their GitHub page no longer has any updates then this should be considered dead?

Wow, I’ve never heard these names before.

 Regarding DarkWallet, the Bitcoin Wiki states that “as of 2020 it’s not really maintained anymore.”

The outdated commitment seen with Hive Wallet clearly indicates that it also belongs to the category of dead wallets.

Both have been added to the list.

Thanks, will take close look tomorrow.
