HoldFast Wallet v4.1.2

October 26, 2026

A security update. Every user should install it. Same app (app.aroundtheblock.wallet) and signing key; it updates in place and your wallet, PIN and settings carry over.

Independent wallet by Around The Block LLC. Not an official DigiByte app.

Lock and PIN: after Android closes the app in the background it always reopens behind your PIN. A fingerprint unlock no longer loops back to the sign-in screen, a damaged PIN store no longer crashes the app on start, and an interrupted wallet wipe finishes the next time the app opens.

Confirmations and balance: a confirmation reported by a server is only a hint; the wallet re-checks it against its own chain before a payment counts as confirmed. A payment that never confirms, or lost to a double spend, no longer stays in your balance, and two sends never pick the same coin.

Sending: with Tor on, a transaction never leaves over a connection outside Tor, including while Tor is starting; if Tor cannot start, the wallet says so before it connects directly.

Recovering funds from another wallet now finds and sweeps taproot DGB, and DigiDollar recovery handles fees, change addresses and moves more safely.

Digi-ID: a restored or older wallet can sign in with the identity a site already knows. The first time, you choose the per-site identity or the shared one used by DigiByte Wallet 3.x to 4.0.76. Digi-ID links that arrive while the wallet is open or locked are no longer dropped.

Privacy and robustness: DigiAsset images load only through IPFS gateways, pinned connections never follow a redirect to another host, release builds no longer log transactions, and sync and peer handling are hardened.

Most of these changes come from outside researchers who reported problems to us privately. They are credited, with the known issues, in the full release notes on GitHub.
