`read_vec` was unbounded. It now accepts an optional bound. In some places, we
are able to define and provide a bound (Bulletproofs(+)' `L` and `R` vectors).
In others, we cannot (the amount of inputs within a transaction, which is not
subject to any rule in the current consensus other than the total transaction
size limit). Usage of `None` in those locations preserves the existing
behavior.

Monero Wallet

Wallet functionality for the Monero protocol, built around monero-serai. This library prides itself on resolving common pit falls developers may face.

monero-wallet also offers a FROST-inspired multisignature protocol orders of magnitude more performant than Monero's own.

This library is usable under no-std when the std feature (on by default) is disabled.

Features

  • Scanning Monero transactions
  • Sending Monero transactions
  • Sending Monero transactions with a FROST-inspired threshold multisignature protocol, orders of magnitude more performant than Monero's own

Caveats

This library DOES attempt to do the following:

  • Create on-chain transactions identical to how wallet2 would (unless told not to)
  • Not be detectable as monero-serai when scanning outputs
  • Not reveal spent outputs to the connected RPC node

This library DOES NOT attempt to do the following:

  • Have identical RPC behavior when creating transactions
  • Be a wallet

This means that monero-serai shouldn't be fingerprintable on-chain. It also shouldn't be fingerprintable if a targeted attack occurs to detect if the receiving wallet is monero-serai or wallet2. It also should be generally safe for usage with remote nodes.

It won't hide from remote nodes it's monero-serai however, potentially allowing a remote node to profile you. The implications of this are left to the user to consider.

It also won't act as a wallet, just as a wallet functionality library. wallet2 has several non-transaction-level policies, such as always attempting to use two inputs to create transactions. These are considered out of scope to monero-serai.

Finally, this library only supports producing transactions with CLSAG signatures. That means this library cannot spend non-RingCT outputs.

Cargo Features

  • std (on by default): Enables std (and with it, more efficient internal implementations).
  • compile-time-generators (on by default): Derives the generators at compile-time so they don't need to be derived at runtime. This is recommended if program size doesn't need to be kept minimal.
  • multisig: Adds support for creation of transactions using a threshold multisignature wallet.
