I like this proposal - it's simpler than ours and the stateless design is really elegant.

But it's not flexible enough for our use case. Two main concerns:

1. Doesn't support imported wallets
2. No good UX if passkey is deleted. User would have to create a new passkey/wallet, then decide how to transfer funds - consolidate all UTXOs in one transaction and lose privacy? Or transfer UTXO by UTXO and lose funds to fees?

biometrics is only required for accessing the passkey.

PIN or biometric for signing a transaction is a wallet level decision. You can set this up in Cove to require it right now.

This is something I could add for sure. Allow users to import multi-sig public descriptors. I’ll create an issue in GitHub. But I have the next little while planned so probably won’t be done for a while.

Can you tell me more about your use case and why would prefer using Cove in this way vs something like Nunchuk?

Multisig support is not planned, that and lightning support are explicitly things Cove will not support because we believe there are already great wallets for that (Nunchuk, Phoenix, Bull bitcoin etc..) and adding those features would complicate Cove and it would no longer be Simple.

It’s in the roadmap, but not until later. I’m prioritizing less advance features, main focus is currently getting good cloud back up going.

I usually use passphrases with hardware wallets. Haven’t ever used it with a hot wallet. Can you tell me more about your use case?

Awesome! Glad it’s working nicely

If you get a chance to leave a review on Apple that would be greatly appreciated.

I’d like Cove to show up in the App Store search when people search “Cove”. Right now you gotta search for “Cove Wallet”. Thanks!

I've been working on a proposal for a new way to do trustless, end-to-end encrypted backups of hot wallets for Cove using Passkeys.

I will work with @nprofile1q... to turn this initial proposal into a proper spec.

Please give it look and give us any feedback you have

UR is a terrible standard for QRs, it's actually terrible, needlessly complex and you always end up with more QRs than BBQr.

All hardware wallet manufacturers should switch to BBQr and please just let UR die.

With all that being said, UR support is coming to covewallet soon...

Hey I think the issue you seeing is we don’t support self signed SSL certs
