# Changelog
## v1.8.00-alpha (2026-06-18)
Polishes the mesh AI assistant and Fedimint, on top of all the v1.7.99 features (kept listed below so you can still see what's new).
- The off-grid mesh radio no longer posts cryptic identity codes to the shared public channel. Your node was announcing a line starting with "ARCHY:" to the public channel about once a minute, which everyone else on that channel saw as spam; that broadcast has been removed.
- You can now use your node's AI assistant straight from a normal chat. Send "!ai <your question>" in a direct message to an AI-enabled node and the answer comes right back in the same conversation — whether your message travelled over the internet or the LoRa radio. Before, the reply could be sent on the wrong path and never arrive.
- The Mesh AI Assistant panel is easier to set up: pick the Claude model from a dropdown (Haiku, Sonnet, or Opus) instead of typing it, and add specific contacts to an "always allow" list so chosen people can use "!ai" even when the assistant is set to trusted-nodes-only.
- Fedimint federations show up in Wallet Settings again. The Fedimint client app wasn't starting because of a configuration error, so the federation your node auto-joins never appeared; the client is fixed and runs again.
- In Settings, "App Updates" and "App Registry" now sit directly under your Account section for quicker access.
- In Mesh chat, scrolling the conversation no longer also scrolls the contact list behind it.
All the v1.7.99-alpha features are included as well:
- Your node can now hold Fedimint ecash as well as Cashu, with tabbed Wallet Settings for each and both balances shown side by side on the home wallet card.
- You can buy files shared by another node right from their cloud, paying from this node's ecash, your Lightning wallet, on-chain, or by scanning a Lightning QR with any outside wallet.
- Your node can act as an AI assistant on the off-grid mesh: peers ask by starting a message with "!ai" and get an answer back over the radio, with a panel to turn it on or off.
- You can view your node's 24-word recovery phrase any time from Settings, behind a password (and 2FA) confirmation and a tap-to-show blur.
- Setting up a brand-new node is smoother: it waits and retries quietly instead of flashing errors, and shows a gentle "securing your private connection…" status that turns to "ready" on its own.
- The NetBird VPN app now logs in (it's served over HTTPS and opens in a browser tab).
- Phone remote-control of a node's screen now supports two-finger scrolling inside apps, and external-browser apps open on your phone.
- You can choose whether your node shares Bitcoin block headers over the mesh, and your choices are remembered.
- Version numbers display cleanly everywhere (no more doubled "v"), and "Back" buttons look and behave consistently across desktop and mobile.
- For advanced testing, Settings includes an optional update & app source choice between the usual trusted origin and an experimental peer-to-peer (DHT swarm) mode, with the trusted origin remaining the default.
## v1.7.99-alpha (2026-06-17)
- Your node can now hold Fedimint ecash as well as Cashu. Wallet Settings now has tabbed sections for each: keep your list of trusted Cashu mints, or paste a Fedimint invite code to join a federation, and the home wallet card shows both your Cashu and Fedimint balances side by side. A new "Fedimint Client" app in the catalog powers the federation side.
