ElectrumSVP for BSV ships first stable release, version 0.2.0

  • —v0.2.0 removes plaintext storage of BIP39 mnemonics in wallet metadata
  • —Affected wallets migrate automatically on first launch
  • —Merkle proofs are cached locally and unconfirmed transactions anchor to confirmed ancestors
  • —Roadmap includes an air-gapped cold wallet with QR codes and UTXO-based privacy tools
Why it matters: The release hardens seed-phrase security and moves the wallet closer to self-verifying SPV architecture without trusting a server.
