  • Feather Wallet 2.0.0 released
    3 projects | /r/FeatherWallet | 8 Jul 2022
    The proof-of-concept 14-word monero-seed library that Feather used before 2.0.0 is now obsolete. It is succeeded by Polyseed. Generating 14-word seeds is no longer supported, all new wallets use Polyseed. Both schemes are similar in functionality. Like monero-seed, Polyseed has an embedded wallet creation date. Erasures are currently not supported. We will continue to support restoring 14-word seeds indefinitely. It is not possible to convert a 14-word seed into a Polyseed. To switch to Polyseed you must create a new wallet and send over your funds. A Polyseed can be converted into an equivalent 25 word seed + restore height in the Seed dialog, so the wallet can be restored in other Monero wallets.
  • Monero has a serious user friendly problem

    There is a proposal for a more user-friendly mnemonic seed that has the restore height baked in. Unfortunately, it hasn't been implemented in the official wallet software yet.
