Taproot 🤝 Passport Today we’ve released Passport firmware v2.3.0, with a massive set of new features and improvements. Is it our biggest release ever? 🤔 You be the judge. https://i.nostr.build/mK7x.png **Full Taproot support is here 🥕** Passport now has full support for sending and receiving using Taproot, making the combination of Envoy and Passport a powerful way to leverage the latest and greatest tech that Bitcoin has to offer. **Verifying addresses just got way easier 📥** We’ve improved address display based on the Bitcoin Design guidelines, making it easier than ever to verify addresses on Passport! Shout-out to @bitcoin_design for the excellent work on this standard! Check it out 📷 https://i.nostr.build/53ja.png **Passport now has full support for verifying and displaying OP_RETURN messages directly on-screen 💬** Want to send a snarky message to your friends or enshrine a headline directly in Bitcoin? Now you can do it (and verify it offline) with passport! https://i.nostr.build/X3Pz.png **We’ve enabled SeedQR exports of the master seed 📷** While this feature should be used with caution, SeedQR is a rapidly growing standard that Bitcoiners are using to backup and restore their seed phrases. Now you can more easily do so on Passport! https://i.nostr.build/D3qv.png **Passport now has a brand new address explorer ✉️** Ever wanted to browse the addresses of one of your Passport accounts on-device? Now you can! We’ve worked hard to make it as easy as possible to navigate and find addresses for verification directly on Passport. https://i.nostr.build/73l2.png **12-word seed phrases are here 🌱** Passport now allows the creation of 12 word seed phrases, and defaults to 12 word seed phrases during onboarding. Want to learn more about why 12-word seed phrases are more than secure enough? 👇 **Calculate a manual seed phrase checksum directly on Passport 📝** If you’re an advanced user who wants to generate a seed phrase offline, now you can have Passport automatically generate the final word for you when you import it. https://i.nostr.build/R3EM.png **It’s time to name your Passport! 🔠** Now you can set a name for your Passport that gets synced to Envoy when you pair it, and lets you easily distinguish between different family member’s Passports or your unnecessarily large Passport collection 👀 And much, much more.
