|
||
| Dana Wallet is a mobile Bitcoin wallet designed around [silent payments][silent-payments] and BIP353-style identifiers like `yourname@danawallet.app`. Instead of handing out reusable receive addresses, it gives users a more familiar payment flow while still deriving fresh on-chain outputs for each payment. The wallet discovers incoming payments through local scanning over a BIP158-like structure, which helps keep address ownership private from outside servers. | ||
|
|
||
| The project combines the wallet itself with the surrounding pieces needed to make that flow usable in practice: Dana address registration, app distribution through GitHub releases, Zapstore, and a self-hosted [F-Droid repository][fdroid], plus backend work around the [Blindbit oracle][blindbit-oracle] infrastructure. The current public releases are still marked experimental, but the project has already shipped multiple production-oriented improvements across the wallet, its transaction storage, and its scanning stack. | ||

| ## Why fund it? | ||
|
|
||
| Dana Wallet is working on a hard part of Bitcoin UX. Silent payments offer stronger on-chain privacy, but they only matter to regular users if the wallet experience is simple, understandable, and reliable on a phone. Dana focuses on that last mile: clean receiving flows, human-readable identifiers, local scanning, and the engineering work needed to turn a promising protocol into something people can actually use. | ||
|
|
||
| OpenSats included Dana Wallet in the [fifteenth wave of Bitcoin grants][grant]. That support is helping move the wallet toward broader public use. | ||
|
|
||
| ## What's next? | ||
|
|
||
| Recent grant reports show steady progress toward a more usable, stable wallet: claimable Dana addresses, a contact list, local transaction storage in SQLite, offline wallet creation, multiple app flavors on the project's F-Droid repo, and releases through [v0.7.3][release]. The next steps include faster launch times, background syncing, a Blindbit V2 backend, an official F-Droid release, iOS investigation, and a more complete project website. | ||
