Bob Wallet 0.7.0-rc.1 Pre-release
Pre-release

0.7.0-rc.1 is removed due to #307

Release Note

Special thanks to @RichardLitt @rithvikvibhu @Falci @mansaj @pinheadmz for contribution and code review!

Users experiencing the rescan loop bug should manually delete the wallet directory and re-import wallets.

To delete wallet directory without having to resync hsd:

  • Back up all seed phrases and unrevealed bids
  • MacOS Remove /Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Bob/hsd_data/wallet/ directory
  • Windows Remove /Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Bob/hsd_data/wallet/, or ~/Library/Application Support/Bob/hsd_data/wallet/
  • Linux Remove $HOME\AppData\Roaming\Bob\hsd_data\wallet
  • if still unfound, do a global search for hsd_data or Bob

Importing wallets with 200+ transactions

When importing wallet, set account depth to the number of transactions in your wallets, and round up to the nearest hundreds. For example, if you wallet has 1199 transactions, set the initial account depth to 1200. Otherwise, your wallet will require multiple rescan in order to find all missing transactions. If multiple rescan doesn't fix your wallet's problem, you might need to delete your wallet directory (instruction above) and re-import your wallet with a higher initial depth.

Upgrade from v0.6.0-rc.2 or below

Users from v0.6.0-rc.2 or below are strongly encouraged to completely uninstall Bob, delete their Electron directory (if applicable) and do a full resync for this release.

v0.6.0-rc.2 Pre-release
Pre-release

Bob Wallet v0.6.0-rc.2

Users of this release are strongly encouraged to completely uninstall Bob, delete their Electron directory (if applicable) and do a full resync for this release.

Example for Mac: uninstalling Bob from the mac Applications directory will not be enough. You also need to delete the Bob directory in Application Support.

  • Show hidden files.
  • Look in /Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Bob, and~/Library/Application Support/Bob. Or do a global search for hsd_data or Bob.
  • Delete the Bob folder before opening the .dmg.

Windows users appear to be fine using the system uninstaller.
See #261 for windows data dir location.

This is needed because the performance and stability improvements* in this release are using a Kyokan-maintained fork of hsd, which is not backward-compatible with chain data saved/validated with previous versions of hsd.

If you try to use this release without a full resync, we will be unable to help you with any wallet state/balance issues you encounter.

Developers running in dev mode from master should delete their Electron datadir before testing.

Normal caveats apply: while we have done extensive QA internally (including on mainnet for most bidding interactions), 'rc' releases are beta, soon-to-be-considered-stable products.

Improvements & Fixes

  • Rescan improvements. This is a base speedup, with notable stability improvements* for high-volume wallets: this version has been tested with power users with 1000+ bids/names and it has not had issues tracking names, bids, or balances.
  • Assorted request and load-time optimizations

New Features

  • Multi-account support - users can now switch between wallets and create new ones (these are whole wallets with their own seeds, not accounts, because hsd does not currently support fetching names that only pertain to a single account**
    10272020-0 6 0-rc 2
  • Various UI related stability improvements, including new UI for Domains (with pagination for Domains and Bids)
    Screen Shot 2020-10-27 at 12 13 05 AM

**Note: all unencrypted wallets (i.e. the default: primary) are hidden from the UI. We'll be working on handling unencrypted wallets - see #245 to track.

Suggested testing flow: import multiple accounts and hit rescan for each of them. After the first sync, it should be significantly faster than before. Feedback and discussion is always welcome on the Bob Wallet Telegram channel.
