Mimblewimble Progress Update Thread - November
In order to add MWEB support to PSBTs, I first had to merge in PSBTv2 (BIP-0370), which can be seen here. I then defined the MWEB fields we needed to add, and added them to the PSBT data structures along with serialization and deserialization here.

Mimblewimble Progress Update Thread - March
It took several iterations of fixes, but we seem to finally be displaying the transaction history reliably. As part of these fixes, the code was moved to a location where we could more easily write automated tests for it. Having repeatable tests should ensure that this continues to function properly in v0.21.2, and in all future releases. You can find most of the related changes here.

Two out of the top three paper wallet generation sites are dodgy (bitcoinpaperwallet.com & walletgenerator.net)
I use bitcoin-tool https://github.com/matja/bitcoin-tool But the same questions apply. How do you trust the C code in bitcoin-tool? I think if bitcoin-tool gives the same result as one of the javascript wallet generators, the developers of the different apps are unlikely to be conspiring
