Rule number 1 – never type your seed on a internet connected device.

He should import his xpub to sparrow, and use the OFFLINE hardware wallet to sign the transactions.

If he started with a Wasabi wallet then the seed has already been connected to the internet.

Verify the Sparrow PGP keys and release and you're all good.

Wasabi supports Coldcard, Ledger, Trezor, Jade, and Bitbox devices. There shouldn't be any migration necessary, the user can just open Sparrow and use his device there. The caveat is that he needs to configure a full node and Tor on Sparrow first in order to match the privacy of Wasabi.

Can you explain the privacy part to me? Why is wasabi more private by default?

reply

Wasabi uses Tor by default for everything. Additionally, it scans the blockchain using BIP157/BIP158 compact block filters, so you don't share your wallet's addresses with any third party servers.

Wasabi is great, i just wish it had a mobile app...

reply

If you have a Start9 node, you can access the Wasabi app on it from your mobile.

I've made the switch to mobile-only. No PC or server for me. If I can't run it on my phone alone, then i'm not interested in that software.

I might be able to run the desktop Wasabi app on my grapheneOS phone using Winlator (https://github.com/brunodev85/winlator), the user experience would likely be horrible.

Are you running a Bitcoin full node on your phone?

He NGMI

Lol. How would the seed be connected to the internet? It was created offline and was never connected to a computer.

reply

Where did you generate the seed? On a hardware wallet or Wasabi?
