category: bitcoin
name: Electrum Gate
version: "0.0.16"
tagline: Your own node from anywhere, without waiting for Tor
description: >-
  The privacy win is already yours: you run the Electrum server. A public one gets asked for
  the history of every address in your wallet, and that tells it which addresses and which
  balance belong to one person. Your own server never reports back.


  What is left is a trade. Tor is the more private way in, and every wallet below speaks it.
  But it adds hundreds of milliseconds to every request, it drops when a phone sleeps or
  changes network, and plenty of networks block it outright. Electrum Gate is the other side
  of that trade: a TLS front door on your node. Fast, no fingerprint to type over, and it
  works on any network you happen to be on.


  It reuses the Let's Encrypt certificate your reverse proxy already manages, so there is
  nothing to request and nothing to renew. A renewal is picked up on its own, without
  dropping connections that are already open. You can also upload a certificate you manage
  yourself, if you do not run a reverse proxy on this machine.


  Nothing in the middle. The connection runs from your wallet straight to your own node,
  encrypted with a certificate you already own, for a domain you already control. There is no
  account to create, no tunnel service that terminates your traffic along the way, and no
  client to install on every device you use: the wallets below already speak TLS, they only
  need an address. What it does ask of you is one forwarded port on your router.


  Useful for wallets connecting from outside your home: Trezor Suite, Electrum, Sparrow,
  BlueWallet, Nunchuk, Blockstream and BitBoxApp. Apps on the Umbrel itself do not need
  it, they already reach the Electrum server directly.


  The dashboard hands you the exact line each of those wallets asks for, and shows block
  height, certificate expiry and whether your Electrum server is answering. Electrs, Fulcrum
  and ElectrumX all work, switchable in the umbrelOS settings.


  What it does not do: hide that the traffic exists. Your domain is public in the certificate
  transparency logs. If that matters more to you than speed, use Tor instead.

# Eén verhaal over deze versie, dan één regel per eerdere versie. Niet meer dan
# dat, en dat staat hier omdat het drie versies achter elkaar fout ging: bij elke
# release kwam er een nieuwe kop bovenop terwijl de oude tekst eronder bleef
# staan. In 0.0.9 stond er daardoor drie keer "Earlier releases" en twee keer
# dezelfde 0.0.4-regel. De toets let er nu op.
releaseNotes: >-
  The app now checks its own front door. Until this release it watched whether your Electrum server was
  answering, but never whether the gateway itself was, which is the one thing it exists to do.


  Every few minutes it opens a connection to its own TLS port, completes the handshake, and compares the
  certificate it gets back with the one you picked. That last part catches something nothing else did: a
  certificate change that nginx never actually applied, which looks fine from the outside and fails at
  your wallet.


  For now the result appears as a line in the activity log when it changes. A tile on the dashboard
  follows in a later release. The check runs every few minutes rather than every minute, and its own
  connections are kept out of the activity log, so the log stays about your wallets.


  What it does not tell you: whether your gateway can be reached from outside. This check runs inside the
  app, so a router that stopped forwarding the port still reads as fine here.


  Earlier releases:


  0.0.15 moved the app store this app comes from to a new address, and pointed every link in this listing
  there. If you added the store at its old address, remove it in umbrelOS and add the new one.


  0.0.14 stopped calling a scan from the internet a refusal. Those now read "probe", in grey, and red
  is kept for a session that did carry traffic and then broke. The panels also got more room between
  them.


  0.0.13 made the certificate panel and the activity log grow and shrink together, so opening the
  upload section no longer leaves a gap under the button.


  0.0.12 tightened the spacing in the certificate panel, and dropped a line claiming certificates
  are read from Nginx Proxy Manager.


  0.0.11 lined up the copy buttons along the right edge on a phone, and moved the upload section
  above the certificate picker.


  0.0.10 made the dashboard work on a phone, and dropped the tile counting the days left on your
  certificate.


  0.0.9 moved everything the app writes into the "data" folder inside the app folder, which is
  where the App Store expects an app to keep its state.


  0.0.8 gave the dashboard the same line as this listing, instead of describing TLS as a means.


  0.0.7 added uploading your own certificate, with the key checked against the certificate before
  anything is stored.


  0.0.6 made a connected wallet visible while it is connected, turned the certificate picker into
  a dropdown, and rewrote the session line in the activity log.


  0.0.5 shortened the message you get when more than one certificate was found.


  0.0.4 fixed an install that showed no dashboard at all.

# defaultUsername en defaultPassword stonden hier met een lege waarde en zijn

# Het icoon hoort bij een eigen store en moet bij inlevering in de officiele
