## Requirements
- **Electrum 4.7.2** — the last stable release exposing `json_db.register_dict`,
which this plugin relies on. Newer versions removed it.
- **Electrum 4.7.2 or 4.8.0** — the plugin detects which wallet-DB
registration API is available (`json_db.register_dict` on 4.7.2,
`stored_dict.register_name` on 4.8.0) and adapts automatically.
- **PyQt6** (bundled with the Electrum desktop GUI).
## Wallet compatibility
BAL currently supports **standard (single-signature) wallets** and
**hardware wallets** supported by Electrum. **Multisig wallets** and
**Electrum TrustedCoin (2FA) wallets** are **not yet supported** — see
[`COMPATIBILITY.md`](COMPATIBILITY.md) for the full compatibility matrix and
current status.
