Three semi-independent fixes flagged from a user-facing testing pass:
1. cw_core/lib/root_dir.dart had a hardcoded 'cake_wallet' for the
Linux app data dir, bypassing the binary name entirely. That's why
~/.config/cake_wallet/ kept being created even after the project
rename. Changed appName const to hash_wallet. Also:
- CAKE_WALLET_DIR env-var override -> HASH_WALLET_DIR (with the
old name kept as a fallback so users migrating from a Cake
install via env-var don't lose their path).
- linuxSymlinkSharedPreferences kept the legacy
['com.example.cake_wallet','cake_wallet'] paths in the migration
array so existing Cake users get auto-migrated into hash_wallet's
new home on first launch of the fork.
2. lib/new-ui/new_dashboard.dart: commented out the
Future.delayed(300ms).then(_showChangelog) trigger. The changelog
content lives under assets/new-ui/changelog/text and describes
Cake's v6.1.0 release notes — not ours. The 'View more info' button
inside the modal launched blog.cakewallet.com. Re-enable once we
write our own changelog content.
3. tool/configure.dart: WalletType.wownero hoisted to the top of the
generated availableWalletTypes list. It's the reason this fork
exists, so it should be the first choice in create / restore
pickers. Monero stays as #2.
Hash Wallet
Hash Wallet (#) is an open-source, non-custodial, multi-currency crypto wallet for Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, and Windows. It is a fork of Cake Wallet maintained by Such Software LLC.
Why a fork?
Cake Wallet ended Wownero support in early 2026. Hash Wallet exists to keep Wownero as a first-class mobile experience, run by the project's founder, while shipping a slimmer, more focused multi-coin wallet without the chains and integrations we don't want to maintain or recommend.
Supported chains
- Monero (XMR)
- Wownero (WOW)
- Bitcoin (BTC)
- Litecoin (LTC), incl. MWEB
- Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
- Dogecoin (DOGE)
- Nano (XNO)
- Ethereum (ETH) + ERC-20s
- Polygon (POL)
- Base (BASE)
- Arbitrum (ARB)
- BNB Smart Chain (BSC)
Hardware wallet support: Ledger, Trezor, BitBox.
What's different from Cake Wallet
Removed:
- Solana, Tron, Zano, Zcash, Decred (chain support disabled)
- Lightning Network (deferred — running Greenlight infra is out of scope for now)
- Cake Pay gift cards (Cake Labs–operated service)
- All direct swap-provider integrations except Trocador, which already aggregates ChangeNow, FixedFloat, LetsExchange, Exolix, StealthEx, Quantex, and ~16 others under one privacy-friendly API
Replaced or planned:
- Default Monero/Wownero/BTC node lists augmented with community nodes (don't rely on Cake Labs–operated nodes alone)
- Fiat price API replacement (Cake's API → public source) — pending
- Tor / Arti integration improvements — pending
Build instructions
The build system is unchanged from upstream Cake Wallet. See docs/ for per-platform instructions:
- Android:
docs/build_android.md - iOS:
docs/build_ios.md - macOS:
docs/build_macos.md - Linux:
docs/build_linux.md - Windows:
docs/build_windows.md
Required Flutter version is pinned in Dockerfile (currently 3.32.0) and .tool-versions. Newer Flutter SDKs (3.5+) drop the _macros pseudo-package that Cake's pinned hive_generator + build_resolvers transitively require — flutter pub get will fail until you switch to 3.32.0. If using asdf or mise, the version will be picked up automatically; otherwise:
git clone --depth 1 --branch 3.32.0 https://github.com/flutter/flutter.git ~/sdks/flutter/3.32.0
export PATH="$HOME/sdks/flutter/3.32.0/bin:$PATH"
flutter --version # confirm 3.32.0 / Dart 3.8.0
Before the first flutter pub get, you must run the prep scripts to clone external native dependencies:
./scripts/prepare_torch.sh
./scripts/prepare_moneroc.sh
./scripts/prepare_zcash.sh # still required by build, even though Zcash is disabled
./scripts/build_bitbox_flutter.sh
# Then fetch the prebuilt reown_flutter tarball (CI does this; reproduce locally
# with the URL in .github/workflows/pr_test_build_linux.yml if you have it).
Then run the platform-specific configure script, e.g.:
APP_LINUX_TYPE=cakewallet ./configure_hash_wallet.sh linux
