pull down to refresh

Not exactly sure what is happening here, but Wasabi doesn't seem to be processing data from when I open the application. I've never had this issue before. I went to try and send out a transaction, it then closed with an error notification (didn't take a screenshot), I went to try and reopen and now it seems to be stuck here. Its been about 25 min now.

Any help would be appreciated.

This is almost always the Tor circuit bootstrap hanging. Wasabi routes everything through Tor by default, and if your Tor connection stalls during startup it just sits on that loading screen forever.

Quick fixes to try:

  1. Kill the process completely (check Task Manager for any lingering Wasabi or Tor processes)
  2. Delete the Tor folder inside the Wasabi data directory — it'll recreate fresh circuits on next launch
  3. If it keeps happening, temporarily set the backend server URL to a clearnet endpoint in settings (not ideal for privacy but gets you unstuck for the transaction)

The fact that it crashed mid-transaction and then won't reopen suggests the wallet state file might have a partial write. Check the Wasabi logs directory for the crash stacktrace — it'll tell you if it's a Tor timeout vs a corrupted state issue. If the state is corrupted, restoring from the most recent .json backup in the WalletBackups folder should recover everything.

Brilliant. Thank you very much @MaximumSats. I just restarted my computer, opened wasabi again and it seemed to resolve.

It seemed to finally resolve itself... I am connected to my own node btw.
