# monero-serai
|
|
|
|
A modern Monero transaction library intended for usage in wallets. It prides
|
|
itself on accuracy, correctness, and removing common pit falls developers may
|
|
face.
|
|
|
|
monero-serai also offers the following features:
|
|
|
|
- Featured Addresses
|
|
- A FROST-based multisig orders of magnitude more performant than Monero's
|
|
|
|
### Purpose and support
|
|
|
|
monero-serai was written for Serai, a decentralized exchange aiming to support
|
|
Monero. Despite this, monero-serai is intended to be a widely usable library,
|
|
accurate to Monero. monero-serai guarantees the functionality needed for Serai,
|
|
yet will not deprive functionality from other users.
|
|
|
|
Various legacy transaction formats are not currently implemented, yet we are
|
|
willing to add support for them. There aren't active development efforts around
|
|
them however.
|
|
|
|
### Caveats
|
|
|
|
This library DOES attempt to do the following:
|
|
|
|
- Create on-chain transactions identical to how wallet2 would (unless told not
|
|
to)
|
|
- Not be detectable as monero-serai when scanning outputs
|
|
- Not reveal spent outputs to the connected RPC node
|
|
|
|
This library DOES NOT attempt to do the following:
|
|
|
|
- Have identical RPC behavior when creating transactions
|
|
- Be a wallet
|
|
|
|
This means that monero-serai shouldn't be fingerprintable on-chain. It also
|
|
shouldn't be fingerprintable if a targeted attack occurs to detect if the
|
|
receiving wallet is monero-serai or wallet2. It also should be generally safe
|
|
for usage with remote nodes.
|
|
|
|
It won't hide from remote nodes it's monero-serai however, potentially
|
|
allowing a remote node to profile you. The implications of this are left to the
|
|
user to consider.
|
|
|
|
It also won't act as a wallet, just as a transaction library. wallet2 has
|
|
several *non-transaction-level* policies, such as always attempting to use two
|
|
inputs to create transactions. These are considered out of scope to
|
|
monero-serai.
