Postpone safety (Strategy B): - A signed/sent will carries an immutable locktime; postponing the delivery time previously did nothing, so a will-executor could still broadcast the old (earlier-locktime) transaction and execute the inheritance too early. - core/will.py: add WillPostponedException and detect postpone by comparing the requested locktime against w.tx.locktime (the locktime frozen in the signed transaction) instead of the in-memory heir entry, which is updated together with the new value and would always compare equal. - gui/qt/dialogs.py (BalBuildWillDialog.task_phase1, the real path used by Tools -> Prepare): handle WillPostponedException before NotCompleteWill; return (None, tx) to trigger sign + broadcast of the invalidation, then the user presses Prepare again to rebuild/re-sign/re-send (two explicit steps). - gui/qt/window.py: mirror the branch in build_inheritance_transaction with an explanatory message; wording aligned to the 'Prepare' button. - gui/qt/common.py: export WillPostponedException. - A postpone on a will that was never signed/sent just rebuilds (no on-chain fee). Server status column: - gui/qt/lists.py: add a dedicated 'Server' column to PreviewList with an always-readable label and a tooltip (will-executor URL + state). - gui/qt/theme.py: add server_status_text() and server_status_tooltip(), reusing the existing status flags. - gui/qt/common.py: export the new theme helpers. Docs: update README.md, bal/README.md and CHANGELOG_REFACTOR.md. Tests: 182 passed; smoke + external-zip OK; ruff has no new real findings.
BalPlugin
Bitcoin After Life Electrum Plugin
Free and decentralized Bitcoin inheritance support for Electrum: build time-locked "will" transactions that transfer your funds to your heirs if you stop refreshing them (dead-man's switch), optionally relayed by will-executor servers.
Key behaviours
- Anticipate / postpone safety: changing the delivery time of an already-signed will is handled safely. Postponing a signed/sent will first asks you to invalidate the old transaction on-chain (so a will-executor can never broadcast the earlier-locktime transaction and execute the inheritance too early), then lets you rebuild and re-send the new one via Tools → Prepare.
- "Server" column: the will transaction list shows whether each transaction
is actually stored on the will-executor servers
(
Confirmed on server,Sent (not checked),Send failed,Not on server,Signed (not sent),Not sent), with a tooltip showing the will-executor URL.
