Zecwallet-CLI now supports encrypted wallets!

Encrypted Wallets

Zecwallet-CLI can now encrypt your wallet, protecting your private keys while stored on disk and in memory.

When a wallet is encrypted, Zecwallet-CLI will use your viewkeys to download new transactions and keep up with the blockchain. To spend money from the wallet, you can unlock your wallet, spend money, and then lock it up again.

When a wallet is encrypted:

  • Private keys for both z and t addresses are encrypted, both on disk and in memory
  • Receive ZEC on both z and t addresses like normally. You can check your balance and transaction history
  • Unlock is needed to spend money from the wallet.

Bip39 Bug

This release also contains a fix for a address derivation bug that derived non-standard addresses for z and t addresses after the first one. Zecwallet-CLI contains a new command fixbip39bug that can automatically correct your wallet's addresses. No funds are at risk.
