Known Limitations:

• CLI Wallet & Laser Beam Channels: Ensure the CLI wallet remains online when using active laser beam channels; it should not be offline for over 24 hours to avoid disruptions.

• Offline Address Usage: Do not offer the same offline address to multiple senders of payments, as this can lead to complications and tracking issues.

• DApp Store - Ubuntu 22+ Issue: Users on Ubuntu 22 and newer versions might experience issues with loading app icons in the DApp Store. This is under investigation.

---

Points to Mention:

• Atomic Swaps Requirement: For users intending to execute Atomic Swaps with ETH, DAI, WBTC, and USDT, it is necessary to create an account on Infura.

• Public Offline Address Transparency: Be aware that when sending funds to a receiver's Public Offline Address, the sender might deduce when those funds are subsequently used. This transparency aspect is crucial in understanding the privacy dynamics of Beam wallet transactions.

HOTFIX - Groovy Gluon 7.4.13781

This update addresses a crucial issue and maintains our commitment to providing a seamless user experience. Please review the details below:

Fixes:

• Transaction Status Fix: Resolved an issue where a completed transaction could erroneously display as "Expired" following a network reorganization. This fix ensures accurate status representation of transactions at all times.

Known Limitations:

1. CLI Wallet & Laser Beam Channels: When using active laser beam channels, it is critical to keep the CLI wallet online and not allow it to be offline for more than 24 hours to maintain channel integrity.

2. Offline Address Usage: To avoid potential tracking and discrepancy issues, do not offer the same offline address to multiple senders of payments.

3. DApp Store - Ubuntu 22+ Issue: Users operating on Ubuntu 22 or newer versions may face difficulties with loading app icons in the DApp Store. Our team is diligently working towards resolving this issue.

Points to Mention:

• Atomic Swaps: Users interested in executing Atomic Swaps with ETH, DAI, WBTC, and USDT are required to set up an account on Infura. This is a prerequisite for these types of transactions.

• Public Offline Address Transparency: It is important for users to be aware that when sending funds to a Public Offline Address, the sender might be able to infer when those funds are subsequently utilized by the receiver. This is an aspect of the Beam wallet's functionality. We urge users to exercise caution and fully understand the transaction visibility before proceeding.

Note:

The latest Windows builds are not signed. We are working on getting a renewed certificate. When in doubt please build from the source
