Thanks for a great project.

I am having trouble unlocking my wallet.

I get "Unlocking your wallet, this may take a while (up to several minutes)..."

It worked for me once, but now after several hours waiting still no new message.

Version is 1.03 downloaded freshly yesterday, running in a custom location

No output in the console even with DEBUG=*

@melvster: do you use the UI or the command line tool? Also, which OS? And are you fully synced? The wallet should not be unlocked before you are fully synced. Well, it's possible to do but there could be problems.

If that does not help: close everything and make sure that all the processes are shut down (reboot your PC maybe). Then, run siad in a command line tool. Wait until you are fully synced and then try unlocking with 'siac wallet unlock'. It should start rescanning the consensus set, this takes a while (maybe 10min). See if there are any outputs/errors.
