:material-check-decagram: Compatibility

Wallet types

Wallet type Status
Standard Electrum wallet (seed-based, single-signature) Supported
Hardware wallets supported by Electrum Supported — see Hardware wallets
Multisig wallets Not yet supported — planned for a future release
Electrum TrustedCoin (2FA) wallets Unknown / unsupported — not yet determined

!!! danger "Do not rely on BAL with multisig or 2FA wallets" If you use a multisig or TrustedCoin (2FA) wallet, do not use BAL for inheritance until compatibility is confirmed.

Electrum versions

The plugin follows Electrum closely; each release states the Electrum version it was tested against.

Plugin release Tested with
v{{ bal.plugin_version }} Electrum {{ bal.electrum_tested }}
v0.2.3 Electrum 4.7.0
v0.2.0 Electrum 4.6.2 — introduced the will setup wizard and the remote Will-Executor list
v0.1.0 Electrum 4.5.8 — first release

Always check the releases page for the current pairing before upgrading Electrum.

Networks

The protocol and the servers support mainnet, testnet, testnet4, signet and regtest. The WeList lets you filter Will-Executors by network — useful when you want to run a full test before committing real funds.

Unconfirmed incoming transactions

You can set up an inheritance on a wallet with an incoming transaction still in the mempool. It does not need to be confirmed — being visible in the mempool is enough. The plugin handles this case automatically.
