Nice wallet. I hope it will come out well (fast), because the current wallet is really not pleasant. Where are the advances in the implementation of Sonic?
We're excited for everyone to try out the new wallet! Smiley

With regards to SuperSonic, this is from the development update last April 18th:
Quote
* We got our cryptographer back fully in action and has been using his time to get SuperSonic built up in Rust. It sounds like it might be closer than we originally anticipated. Of course rigorous testing and 3rd party criticism and review must take place before we can start integrating it.

Veil Development Update — April 25, 2020

Hey everyone, update for this week are as follows:


  • Everything is in a bit of a stalemate until Elements blind code base gets added into Particl to allow the Rangeproof to be flexible enough for our needs. The existing Particl code only handles an exponent of 32 and we need an exponent that we can change. It’s a bit of a setback that we tried to avoid, however, there is a lot of work going into fixing this issue.
  • PoW is complete, but it’s just missing the final piece which requires the above.
  • There have been discussions about fixing up some issues with excessive LOCKs, so expect a more performant core wallet soon.
  • Veil Link Server has been on and off this week with a bit more clean up on the repo. A lot of attention and focus had to be diverted to this.
  • macOS fixes are ongoing but very close. It does build with the latest pushes. We are ensuring that involved team members can build it just fine.
  • Veil X has many new features added:
    • Options to switch wallets and change passwords
    • App auto-updating
    • Ensure orphans aren't displayed
    • Direct editing of veil.conf in the app
    • Copy transaction debug information to clipboard
    • Help screen
    • More transaction display consolidation
    • Neat "Reveal" button to display CT & RingCT transaction values

It has been a little bit of a frustrating week for Core developers as we were really hoping to have delivered some big news this week. Instead, we ran into the major issue described above. We will continue working as hard as we can to deliver a safe product.

Fun fact(?) this week: Did you know that we potentially started seeing blue as recently as 200 years ago after the creation of the light bulb? Is it true? You tell me!

Could "cash equivalent" be our catchcry? The threats of surveillance capitalism and totalitarian governance bolster the need for a digital equivalent to cash.

Welcome to a new research blog series authored by Veil cryptographer Paul Moonshine - a semi-technical overview of blockchain privacy through zk-SNARKs and Sonic. In this first episode, Paul gives an introduction to zk-SNARKs by way of analogy.

Great to hear that you have it working. Smiley Minimizing transaction size is something that the team is looking into for the future, and was one of the requirements when deciding on the new privacy protocol Sonic. You can read about it in our update from May.

I just aware if you said about sonic. I have a question about can I still use zero coin right now? or is it already disabled? I'm wanna sending my veil and I'm feeling worry about that because I have been always using zero coin to send veil. I hope you can consider to create a new desktop wallet that doesn't forced us to update the wallet to be fully synched with the network.
Thank you for your feedback asriloni. Yes, you can still use zerocoin to transact, but be aware of this change (from v1.0.4.4 release notes) as we move to transition to RingCT-only staking, and then to Sonic:

Light Zerocoin
Zerocoin will now have its reliance on zero knowledge proofs completely disabled. A zerocoin will now behave much more like a normal UTXO based transaction does. This results in a large reduction in transaction size, much quicker transaction validation, and fast transaction creation.



I'm stuck on block 450159
will try downloading the latest snapshot to get back on the righttrack

this is usually the best way to go or there are simpler and faster fixes?

still no plans for a lighter wallet, right?
Hey Lucas. You can try these steps if you get stuck on a block:

1. Go to Settings > Advanced options > Console > and type in command getbestblockhash
2. Copy the result that the wallet gives you.
3. Paste that result into this command: reconsiderblock PASTERESULTHERE

No ETA yet as to light and mobile wallets, but these are planned for development. We'll be happy to share the updates on it as the information becomes available.
