Wallet Overview

Verified against: Pinned source and release revisions, Qwertycoin mainnet where applicable, 2026-09-29.

Published-release track: Core/GUI v2.0.2.

Wallet	Best for	Important boundary
Desktop GUI	Everyday desktop use	Verify the exact official package; preserve seed and wallet files.
CLI	Operators and advanced users	Commands act on the currently opened wallet.
Web Wallet	Browser use	Trust and backup model differs from native wallets; use only the official origin.
Wallet RPC	Exchange/service integration	Holds wallet authority; keep private, authenticated, and serialized.

Current mainnet supports primary addresses, subaddresses, and integrated addresses. Generate addresses with current wallet software. A subaddress can legitimately have a visible prefix different from QWC; validate_address is authoritative for format/network/type.

Wallet data

• Mnemonic seed/private spend key: controls funds; protect offline.

• Wallet file: encrypted key material and configuration.

• Wallet cache: transaction state that can be rebuilt by rescanning.

• Daemon blockchain: node data, not wallet backup.

• EPoSE keystore: separate service identity; never place it in a wallet directory.

Never open the same wallet file concurrently in CLI and wallet RPC.
