## Download
|
|
Download compiled binaries from our [release page](https://github.com/adityapk00/zecwallet-lite/releases)
|
|
|
|
## Privacy
|
|
* While all the keys and transaction detection happens on the client, the server can learn what blocks contain your shielded transactions.
|
|
* The server also learns other metadata about you like your ip address etc...
|
|
* Also remember that t-addresses don't provide any privacy protection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Note Management
|
|
Zecwallet-Lite does automatic note and utxo management, which means it doesn't allow you to manually select which address to send outgoing transactions from. It follows these principles:
|
|
* Defaults to sending shielded transactions, even if you're sending to a transparent address
|
|
* Sapling funds need at least 5 confirmations before they can be spent
|
|
* Can select funds from multiple shielded addresses in the same transaction
|
|
* Will automatically shield your transparent funds at the first opportunity
|
|
* When sending an outgoing transaction to a shielded address, Zecwallet-Lite can decide to use the transaction to additionally shield your transparent funds (i.e., send your transparent funds to your own shielded address in the same transaction)
|
|
|
|
## Compiling from source
|
|
* ZecWallet is written in C++ 14, and can be compiled with g++/clang++/visual c++.
|
|
* It also depends on Qt5, which you can get from [here](https://www.qt.io/download).
|
|
* You'll need Rust v1.37 +
