Litecoin MWEB: A Game-Changer for Privacy

Probably the most exciting update is the integration of Litecoin MimbleWimble Extension (MWEB). Cake Wallet is now the first cross-platform wallet to offer MWEB support. This means users can enjoy enhanced privacy and scalability when transacting with Litecoin. Enabling and using MWEB is of course a piece of cake:

1. Go into your Litecoin wallet
2. Tap enable MWEB.
3. Hello, privacy.

We’ll be posting more information in the near future with more technical details as well.

Wallet Groups: Organize Your Wallets with Ease

To help users better manage their wallets, we’ve introduced the ability to create wallet groups. It’s the little things that make life a bit more organized.

Bitcoin Silent Payment Enhancements

Our Silent Payment feature, designed for private Bitcoin transactions, has received several important improvements in this update. We’ve focused on enhancing speed, reliability, and usability to continue to provide you all with a private experience. We’ve been seeing many reports (link) of people reporting much faster sync times and improved usability, and we hope these changes in 4.20.0 will improve even further!

Monero Improvements: Icing on the Cake

For Monero users, the update includes sending improvements and address generation refactoring, which is currently in testing. These enhancements aim to streamline the Monero transaction process and improve security.

Expanded Exchange Options with StealthEx and LetsExchange

We’re continually searching for exchange partners to make sure our users receive the best rates with speed and security. Swaps will continue to improve.

Conclusion

With MWEB, we now have two privacy-first technologies not found elsewhere:

• Silent Payments for Bitcoin
• MWEB for Litecoin

Neither of these can be found in any other cross-platform wallet. We are proud to offer next-generation privacy tools to our customers, all accessible in our open source application. Whether you use Bitcoin, Litecoin, or Monero—our goal is to improve the privacy of all users in the cryptocurrency space. And most importantly: give users the option to transact with varying levels of privacy across their favorite projects. We hope our development of these projects can encourage greater community adoption. Share with us your feedback on MWEB and any issues you experience. Enjoy the update!
