ensures a minimum of two rounds of coinjoin for the first Bitcoin deposit into an empty wallet, preventing common coin consolidation pitfalls.

Apart from this, there is nothing more precise or a log about what changes the new update brings? "Many more cool improvements" can mean anything

There will be several blog posts explaining the improvements in this version. There's a lot of of subtle behavior changes that make the wallet "smarter" about when to coinjoin and when not to coinjoin, performance improvements so there's less loading and less CPU/GPU consumption, UI polish, and codebase cleanup that will make future development more productive.

I will make an alert for everyone.

I was looking for your blog, and then a found a phising site . Luckily, phantom wallet (browser extension) told me about it.

This was the first Bing result when searching for 'wasabi blog android app"

Then, I learned the real website is https://blog.wasabiwallet.io/

I believe that it will be in the future, but I prefer to see all the changes brought by an update before I accept it. Regardless of the type of software, each new update brings a certain type of risk because it has not been fully tested in live use.

It's decent idea, phone usually use more battery when there's no strong mobile signal. I don't know how it can be implemented either, but i believe Wasabi team have sufficient technical skill to do that. Although i wonder how much battery can be saved when you use Wifi rather than mobile internet.

This option exists, but not so much to save the battery, but when it comes to updating applications, and the purpose is to avoid downloading too large files over the mobile Internet because these are often limited ^{by mobile providers} with such data consumption.

As far as I know, multimedia is the biggest drainer of the battery, and in the mentioned Wasabi case, it would only be text communication, so that part should not be a problem for battery capacity. For the application, I assume that some kind of customized Tor bridge could do something like this with minimum requirements.

While it's true smartphone hardware become more powerful, it's not the only limitation. Theoretically, Wasabi Wallet need to run in background while connected to the CoinJoin coordinator and doing some stuff (choose input, sign transaction, etc.). And since Wasabi Wallet use Tor by default, Tor also need to run in background. I expect it could drain battery quickly and the OS show warning about it. CMIIW.

What if, when you first launch the application, you can prompt the user to select by default what type of connection will be used to connect (for example, only Wifi). I know that this can be done in the phone settings, but few people worry about it.

And the mobile Internet will be used “only when using the application.” My point is that if the mobile Internet is not used to work in the background, then this will not affect the battery drain in any way.

Although, to be honest, I'm not sure how to implement this.

When was that comment about smartphones originally made, and how have smartphones of today have become more powerful since the original announcement? I believe some smartphone hardware might be starting to reach the capability of what some software requires of it to function like a desktop, no?

Although the smartphone's OS could be limiting, especially Apple's smartphones.

I would certainly use an android app of wasabi wallet.

Is there any release date for a possible mobile app? I think mobile users are many, and allow users to use wasabi in the phone would be very good.

A mobile app is on the roadmap, but it's not currently in the building stage yet. A lot of code maintenance was completed to make it easier to implement though.

This FAQ answer your question, although i recall it's created few years ago.

Quote from: https://docs.wasabiwallet.io/FAQ/FAQ-Introduction.html#is-there-an-android-ios-version

Is there an Android/iOs version?

No, Wasabi and CoinJoin features require considerable computational power, not currently replicable on a smartphone.

One short term option is to launch a mobile Wasabi app that connects to your Wasabi desktop running at home, similar to how Zeus used to only work as a mobile interface for your remote Lightning node.

I wanted to check old blog post, so i visit that onion link and choose "BLOG" which redirect me to https://blog.wasabiwallet.io/. But it surprise me that link show me message "403 Forbidden Access to this resource on the server is denied!". I don't mind redirection to clearnet, but i expect they configure their website to explicitly allow Tor visitor.

Thank you for reporting this issue! The site maintainers are working on fixing it.

This has now been fixed. @ABCbits, let me know if you have any issues, I got a 403 error on one attempt, but refreshing the page made it go away.

Sorry i didn't notice your reply. Anyway, i can confirm i can access the blog from Tor Browser without encounter 403 most of the times.

Thank you for reporting, I had not realized there was an earlier origin for the quote!

LOL. LARPs as big defender of privacy but hasn't even heard of Cypherpunk's Manifesto!

Super example of Wasabi team. No idea what they talk about. No idea about privacy. Just want to make profit by spying on you.
