DigiByte Wallet v4.0.80
September 9, 2026
A release of DigiByte Wallet (io.digibyte), the app DigiByte Mobile replaces. Moving to DigiByte Mobile.
Some DigiAssets are issued with a rule — most often a royalty every transfer must pay the issuer. The wallet knew nothing about rules and never built that payment. DigiByte confirmed such a transaction normally, but the DigiAsset layer re-checks the rules afterwards and strips the assets from every output of a transfer that breaks one: not just the amount sent, but the whole holding it came from, the change due back, and any other asset on the same output — while the app reported success and went on showing a balance that existed nowhere.
This was reported privately by a security researcher, confirmed from source on both sides, and then proven on mainnet with throwaway assets on a test phone, where sending 2 of 5 units destroyed all 5.
An asset the wallet cannot prove is rule-free can now no longer be sent, on the send path or the recovery path. The refusal is explained on screen in 13 languages, and nothing is signed or broadcast. Rule-free assets are unaffected. The fix prevents the loss but cannot undo one: a holding burned by an earlier version may still show units that no longer exist.
