We are proud to announce that Wasabi Wallet v2.7.0 is our first release fully distributed through Nostr.
Instead of relying on GitHub or DNS, clients now receive update notifications directly from notes published by Wasabi’s Nostr public key. This ensures that even in the event of infrastructure outages or black swan scenarios, we can deliver emergency fixes seamlessly.
For users, the update process remains unchanged: smooth, secure, and reliable.
For the project, this marks an important step toward resilience: guaranteeing that users will always be able to securely access their funds with Wasabi, without sacrificing privacy by restoring seeds on less private wallets.
Of course, we also want to thank relay operators for making it possible to implement features like this.

🚀 Faster transaction broadcasting
A more sophisticated transaction broadcasting mechanism was introduced to make the process faster. Transactions are now broadcast to multiple nodes in parallel (through the Tor network) and fail more quickly if the transaction is rejected by the network. Users who upgrade will notice it now takes half as long to send their coins.
🔍 Help to setup and find a coordinator
A new message is now shown when no coordinator is configured, along with some help to understand how to find and setup one.
⏫ More accurate CPFP fee estimation
The CPFP feature now takes into account the fee paid by the parent transaction. In previous releases, the child transaction assumed the parent paid 0 sats in fees, and thus always overpaid for the speed up.. This improvement will be especially significant in high-fee environments, where the CPFP feature is most useful!
📉 Safer protocol
In order to avoid introducing unknown incentives and to limit risk to users, the coordination fee concept has been removed. Only coinjoin coordinators that don't charge any coordination fee continue to be supported. Read more:
