As the week ends, let's take a moment to look back at what we've achieved in the past few days and see what we've got to look forward to in the week to come.

BasicSwap 📈

Dogecoin Integration 🧪

Dogecoin (DOGE) is now available for testing on the dev branch. Please note that this integration uses an experimental, custom-built core version specifically designed for BasicSwap compatibility. As a result, it may not always align with upstream changes, and features unrelated to BasicSwap might function differently than expected.

Due to Dogecoin's lack of SegWit support, secret hash swaps are not possible with this implementation. Consequently, direct swaps between DOGE and privacy coins like Monero and Wownero are currently unavailable, though we are working toward a resolution of this issue.

Master Release Imminent ✅

Most of this week has been dedicated to preparing additional features for BasicSwap's next master release. Along with various bug fixes and minor improvements, we've focused on the following items that will be included in the upcoming release:

  • Fix recoverNoScriptTxnWithKey regression, add to more tests (1)
  • UI update for Get Rate Inferred (1)
  • Fix Swap Type + Set adaptor_sig default if both adaptor/secret as option (1)
  • (API): Fix identities command not able to modify data (1)
  • (API): getcoinseed shows expected seed IDs (1)
  • (API): Identities returns a single object instead of a list if address is set (1)
  • checkWalletSeed sets expected seed ID if missing (1)
  • Added a pre-publication verification step that checks whether the initial lock transaction can be funded before an offer is posted. This prevents the creation of offers that the seller cannot actually fund. (1)
  • Disable duplicate balance change when sending offer (1)

We're still wrapping up a few items and will be merging the dev branch into the master branch shortly, confirming the next production release of BasicSwap!

User Interface 🖥️

We've bumped the version of the user interface to version 3.1.2, signifying its readiness to be merged on master.

Simplified New Bid Page

Following the bump, we've ended up adding a few fixes and minor improvementes, which will also be part of GUI 3.1.2 when it goes live on the master branch.

  • Bump GUI version: v3.1.2 (1)
  • Updated Get Rate inferrence (1)
  • Updated new bid section and make it more intuitive (1)
  • JS: Fixed API and new cleanup (memory) table row function and small fixes (1)
  • UI/JS: Optimization tweaks (1)
  • Fix Swap Type select for Doge (1)
