Taproot 🤝 Passport

Today we’ve released Passport firmware v2.3.0, with a massive set of new features and improvements. Is it our biggest release ever? 🤔

You be the judge.



**Full Taproot support is here 🥕**

Passport now has full support for sending and receiving using Taproot, making the combination of Envoy and Passport a powerful way to leverage the latest and greatest tech that Bitcoin has to offer.

**Verifying addresses just got way easier 📥**

We’ve improved address display based on the Bitcoin Design guidelines, making it easier than ever to verify addresses on Passport! Shout-out to @bitcoin_design for the excellent work on this standard!

**Passport now has full support for verifying and displaying OP_RETURN messages directly on-screen 💬**

Want to send a snarky message to your friends or enshrine a headline directly in Bitcoin? Now you can do it (and verify it offline) with passport!



**We’ve enabled SeedQR exports of the master seed 📷**

While this feature should be used with caution, SeedQR is a rapidly growing standard that Bitcoiners are using to backup and restore their seed phrases. Now you can more easily do so on Passport!



**Passport now has a brand new address explorer ✉️**

Ever wanted to browse the addresses of one of your Passport accounts on-device? Now you can! We’ve worked hard to make it as easy as possible to navigate and find addresses for verification directly on Passport.



**12-word seed phrases are here 🌱**

Passport now allows the creation of 12 word seed phrases, and defaults to 12 word seed phrases during onboarding.

**Calculate a manual seed phrase checksum directly on Passport 📝**

If you’re an advanced user who wants to generate a seed phrase offline, now you can have Passport automatically generate the final word for you when you import it.



**It’s time to name your Passport! 🔠**

Now you can set a name for your Passport that gets synced to Envoy when you pair it, and lets you easily distinguish between different family member’s Passports or your unnecessarily large Passport collection 👀

And much, much more. To get the full list of what we’ve added, improved, or fixed, read the full release notes below.
