Dark Wallet
A wallet that makes the important parts visible.
Private by default, with deliberate control — a Bitcoin wallet built for clean, repeatable work.
Dark Wallet
Private Bitcoin, on your terms.
Tor/I2P-only routing, clean address hygiene, and offline signing — designed with calm, engineer-friendly clarity.

Tor / I2P only

Routing that stays private
Dark Wallet routes through Tor/I2P by default — and refuses silent clearnet fallback when the path is unstable.
- Tor/I2P-only routing with fail-closed behavior
- Route visibility and instant server switching
- Server pinning + TLS pinning for predictable behavior
- Force Tor and Prefer .onion as first-class modes
Force Tor
Prefer .onion
Fail-closed
If the anonymity path isn’t healthy, routing pauses — it never “quietly works” through clearnet.
Designed for clarity
Keep your workflow clean.
Fresh details when you need them, deliberate control when it matters — no clutter in between.

Privacy-first routing
Tor / I2P only
Dark Wallet refuses clearnet fallback. If the anonymity path breaks, network activity stops until the chain is restored.
Receive or Send.
Receiving stays clean by default. Sending reveals advanced controls only when you choose to use them.
Clean in. Controlled out.
Core workflows
Confident Bitcoin, end to end.
Sign offline. Receive clean. Send privately. Keep things lightweight.
Private by default
No ceremony — just sensible defaults.
Control when it matters
Depth appears only when you ask for it.
Designed to stay fresh
Less clutter. Fewer surprises.
Air-gapped signing
Build online. Sign offline. Send when you choose.
- Sign offline. Keys stay off the online machine.
- Broadcast on your terms. Send when you’re ready, not automatically.
- Stay in control. Clear steps, no hidden state.
Private Address Book
Share once. Let it disappear.
Address Vault
Always have a clean receive detail ready.
- A pool of receive addresses. Pre-generated — no forced reuse.
- Organize with tags and pins. Invoices, savings, donors — in order.
- Clean status and export. Used marked “burned”. Export via CSV.
Built-in Mixer
Private sending in a few taps.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Short, practical explanations — no fear, no fluff.
What happens if Tor/I2P is temporarily unavailable?
Dark Wallet is designed to avoid silent clearnet fallback. If the anonymity path isn’t healthy,
routing pauses until the chain is restored (fail-closed).
What’s the difference between watch-only and air-gapped mode?
Watch-only lets you monitor balances without private keys present. Air-gapped mode keeps keys on a cold device
and uses PSBT to move signing offline.
What is PSBT and what does the signing flow look like?
PSBT is a standard format for partially signed Bitcoin transactions. Prepare online, export PSBT, sign offline,
then import the signed result to broadcast.
What data stays local and how does cleanup work?
Contacts and notes are stored locally. Expired entries can be auto-purged, sessions can be cleared on close,
and local storage can be wiped in one action. No telemetry by default.
What does “burned” mean in Address Vault?
“Burned” indicates an address has been used and is treated as no longer fresh for receiving — keeping hygiene tidy.
Can I choose or pin my own Electrum server?
Yes. You can switch servers instantly, pin a preferred server for predictable behavior, and use TLS pinning
to reduce downgrade and interception risk on recurring connections.
What are “stealth” and “disposable” receive addresses?
They’re receive details optimized for one-off or low-linkability workflows. Address Vault can pre-generate pools,
tag them, and keep a clean supply of fresh receive details without manual bookkeeping.
How does the Private Address Book protect contacts?
Contacts stay local and can expire by default. You can share once (e.g., via QR) and let entries auto-purge after use,
reducing address reuse and minimizing partner data leakage.
What is Address Mixer, in plain terms?
Address Mixer is a built-in privacy workflow that helps reduce simplistic input/output linking by reshaping how funds are
assembled and routed inside the wallet. It can increase fees and is not a guarantee of anonymity—use responsibly and comply with local laws.
What does “obfuscated sending” include?
The advanced Send flow can expose coin control, split sends, optional delays, and “hop” routing before the final recipient.
These controls are off by default and appear only when you choose to use them.
What is multipath broadcasting and why use it?
BroadcastMultiPath can relay a raw transaction to multiple nodes with staggered timing, making simple network-correlation
heuristics less reliable. It does not change the transaction itself—only how it’s propagated.
How do I verify the download (checksum / release integrity)?
Use the provided checksums/signatures from the release page and compare them against your downloaded file.
Verification is recommended before first run, especially on security-sensitive machines.
