look-alike can't quietly redirect fees. Operators can also set their instance's
display name and branding on the directory card. For everyone else: signing out

small interface bugs are closed. Under the hood, the on-chain release machinery
that the public launch depends on was completed and hardened.For operators:
morphit-ops upgradehandles this release the usual way — it runs

server for you. Like beta.24, this release changes no third-party
dependencies, so there's no special install step beyond the upgrade tool.New
- The project treasury is part of the software now. The canonical BLURT, BTC,
and XMR treasury addresses are baked into the code as the single source of
truth, rather than something each piece configures separately. Fee routing and
every on-chain treasury check derive from that one place, which removes a whole
class of "which address is right?" mistakes. - The directory flags treasury mismatches. On the public instances page, an
instance whose on-chain treasury address doesn't match the canonical project
treasury now carries a clear mismatch indicator — a trust signal that makes a
fee-redirecting look-alike visible at a glance. - Name and brand your instance. Operators can set their instance's display
name and branding for its directory card throughmorphit-ops, so your node
shows up the way you want it to.
Fixed
- Sign out means sign out — everywhere. Signing out from any control,
including the avatar menu, now clears your session across the whole app
consistently, instead of leaving some surfaces still showing you as signed in. - Your instance's directory name actually updates. A bug kept an operator's
chosen instance name from changing on the directory card; it now reflects what
you set. - The asset picker on the order book closes properly. Selecting an asset no
longer leaves the picker stuck open.
Improved
- Sharper FAQ search. Search now accepts ordinary straight quotes (not just
curly ones) for exact-phrase matching, waits for a few characters before it
starts matching so a single keystroke doesn't flood the results, and subtly
highlights the matched terms so you can see why a result came up. - A foolproof path to the on-chain release. The release ceremony now has
proper tooling: a laptop-only helper signs and broadcasts the on-chain release
record with the signing key entered at a masked prompt (never stored, never
logged), and previews exactly what it will send before asking for the key. The
release bundle's integrity manifest now generates in the exact format the
on-chain record and the in-browser verifier expect. - Clearer launch documentation. The operator launch runbook was de-duplicated
and reconciled into one canonical sequence, so there's a single, unambiguous
set of steps to follow at go-live.
Under the hood
- The on-chain release pipeline works end to end. The chain of build → integrity
manifest → signed release record was completed and proven end to end, and is now
pinned by automated checks so it can't drift back out of shape. This is the
groundwork the public launch (which will let any visitor's browser verify the
running site hasn't been tampered with) is built on. - Leaner chat bundle. A type-only import was corrected so a byte-handling
polyfill no longer rides along into a chat code chunk it never needed. - More regression guards. New automated checks pin the behaviors above — the
treasury single-source-of-truth, the release-manifest format, and more — so a
future change can't quietly undo them. - Translation upkeep. Every new or reworded piece of on-screen text ships in
all ten languages.

2026-06-21 05:15:04 +00:00 | 170 commits to main since this releaseA reliability, self-healing, and polish release. The headline for operators is
that your instance now keeps its own account-creation buffer topped up by
itself — so new sign-ups stop failing silently when that buffer runs dry — and
it alerts you the moment account creation is actually being refused. For
everyone else: a sign-in bug that wrongly rejected a valid account is fixed, a
couple of subtle key- and order-handling issues are closed, the FAQ comparisons
are refreshed, and a long tail of smaller annoyances is tidied up.For operators:
morphit-ops upgradehandles this release the usual way — it runs
npm ciand rebuilds the web frontend, the command-line tools, and the MCP
server for you. Unlike beta.23, this release changes no third-party
dependencies, so there's no special install step beyond what the upgrade tool
already does. If you haven't already, this is a good moment to set your alert
address (morphit-ops→ Matrix alerts) so the new account-creation alerts
actually reach you.New
- Your instance keeps itself able to create accounts. Creating a new account
consumes a pre-minted "account token" the relay holds in a small buffer; when
that buffer empties, sign-ups fail — regardless of how much BLURT the relay is
holding. The relay now refills that buffer on its own, in the background,
spending only above a reserve you set, so you no longer have to top it up by
hand. This is on by default; set the auto-mint switch to off if you'd rather
manage it yourself. - An alert the moment sign-ups are actually being refused. Previously, if the
account-creation buffer ran dry, new users just hit a failure and you got no
warning (the only balance alert watched BLURT, which could be plentiful while
the buffer was empty). There's now a CRITICAL alert that fires exactly when the
buffer falls to the point where sign-ups are being rejected — and clears itself
when it recovers — so a silent sign-up outage can't go unnoticed. - Exact-phrase FAQ search. Wrap a search in quotes ("…") to match that exact
phrase instead of the individual words.
Fixed
- Sign-in no longer wrongly rejects a valid account. Importing or signing in
could report a perfectly valid account as "invalid" because the account-lookup
request was being built with a doubled slash in the URL that the server then
refused. The address is now always built correctly, so a real account is found. - The right key, every time. On the key panel, the short fingerprint shown on
screen could differ from the full key the Copy button actually gave you. It now
shows a shortened form of the same value you copy. - No accidental duplicate orders. If you navigated away while an order was
mid-broadcast — unsure whether it had landed — and then posted again, you could
create a second, duplicate order on-chain (each attempt gets its own random
identifier). Navigation is now held while an order is being broadcast, the same
protection the account-creation step already had. - "Register when you're ready" actually points somewhere. A sign-up message
used to tell people to "register from Settings," but Settings has no
account-creation step — only on-chain name verification. The wording now points
at the real path (the register prompt on the order book), in all ten languages. - Operator console fixes. The
morphit-opsstatus dashboard no longer dead-ends
with "No database URL configured" when you run it from outside the install
directory, and the menu's colored markers (including the bright "update
available" flag) render in color again. - Quieter console behind the beta gate. A harmless-but-noisy
manifest 401
during the beta's password gate is resolved. - Smaller fixes. Clicking the logo (and a couple of other spots) no longer
drops your in-memory session; a fresh page no longer loads with its top heading
tucked under the sticky header; and a "you're about to switch accounts" prompt
prevents a stale-session mix-up on the sign-in page.
Improved
- The FAQ comparisons are current. The "how is Morphit different from …"
articles were reorganized and brought up to date — including the recent
real-world events that make the case (a major Bisq/Haveno-class exploit and the
shutdown of a long-running competitor) — across all ten languages. - One wordmark, loaded once. The header, hero, and footer logo are now the
exact same asset, fetched a single time and cached, instead of being requested
repeatedly. - Glossary and copy. The glossary intro, the "BLURT Power" entry, and a number
of labels and descriptions were tightened, with every change shipped in all ten
languages.
Under the hood
- Self-healing by default. The account-token refill loop is bounded (it never
spends below your reserve, mints only toward a target, and caps how much it does
per cycle) and logs what it does, so the relay can keep itself healthy without
surprising you. - More regression guards. New automated checks pin the behaviors above — the
duplicate-order guard, the corrected sign-in lookup, a documentation-vs-code
check that catches an operator example naming a setting the software doesn't
read, and more — so a future change can't quietly undo them. - A deep, repo-wide audit pass. A multi-session review swept every workspace
for drift, dead code, hostile-input handling, privacy leaks, and documentation
accuracy; the findings it surfaced are the fixes above. - Translation upkeep. Every new or reworded piece of on-screen text ships in
all ten languages.

2026-06-20 05:00:08 +00:00 | 171 commits to main since this releaseA privacy, reliability, and polish release. The headline is that your browser
no longer talks to third-party Blurt nodes to do everyday things: reading your
balance and history, browsing the block explorer, and confirming your key when
you sign in all now go through the instance you're already using. That closes a
quiet leak where outside servers could see your IP address and which account you
were looking at. On top of that, the "a new version is available" prompt now
shows up reliably, the QR sign-in code lasts its full five minutes, signing in
checks your input more helpfully, the first-trade flow is clearer, and a long
list of smaller annoyances are fixed.For operators: this release does require reinstalling dependencies — run
npm install(ornpm ci) as part of your deploy, because a dependency was
updated since beta.22. If you run behind BunkerWeb and your instance was first
deployed before the frontend config was switched to a bind-mount, do a one-time
docker compose up -d frontendso the new no-cache rules for the update files
take effect (a plain restart won't attach the new volume; fresh installs get it
automatically).morphit-ops upgradenow also rebuilds the command-line tools
and the MCP server, not just the web frontend.New
- Your browser stops phoning third-party servers to read the chain. Looking
at your balance, your transaction history, and the block explorer used to make
your browser contact outside Blurt nodes directly — which meant those nodes
could see your IP address and which account you were viewing. All of that now
goes through the instance you're already on, so there's nothing new for an
outside server to learn about you. It's also more reliable: reads no longer
break just because one particular set of public nodes is down. - Signing in no longer leaks which account is yours. When you sign in or
import a key, Morphit checks that your key matches your on-chain account. That
check used to go straight to a third-party node, tying your IP to your account
at the moment you logged in. It now goes through your instance instead. Your
secret key still never leaves your device — only your public account name is
ever looked up. - A "refresh now" button on the block explorer. An account's explorer page
updates on its own, but slows down its checks when the page sits idle, so a
brand-new transaction could take up to a minute to appear. There's now a
refresh button that pulls the latest straight away, plus a small note so you
know roughly how fresh what you're seeing is.
Fixed
- The logo no longer logs you out. Clicking the Morphit logo (and a couple of
other spots) used to drop your in-memory session. Those now keep you signed in,
the same way the rest of the site's links already did. - The "new version available" prompt now actually appears. On some setups a
caching layer could keep serving the old app, so the prompt to reload into a
fresh version never showed. The app now also checks the deployed version
directly and offers the update even in that case. - The QR sign-in code lasts the full five minutes it promises. Pairing a
phone by QR code could quietly expire after about a minute on some setups. It
now stays valid for the whole five minutes. - Smaller fixes: a couple of explorer/account links that showed a placeholder
and led nowhere now work; a mistyped "blurt.media" link that used to slip
through is now caught.
Improved
- Signing in checks your input as you type. The account-name box re-checks
when you edit it and turns red with a clear marker if the name can't exist or
isn't found; the posting-key box flags an obviously-wrong key the moment you
paste it; the confirm-password field tells you right away if it doesn't match.
A connection problem never shows a false red — that isn't your fault. - The "how will you pay?" step is clearer. The payment section on a new
listing was relabeled and tidied, the four payment categories now start
collapsed so the page isn't a wall of options, and the currency you want paid
in is now a searchable picker instead of a free-text box. - Your first trade is guided. Because a brand-new account needs a little
BLURT before it can do anything else, your very first trade is set up as a buy
of BLURT — explained on the page, with the listing fee waived — and is set to
expire in seven days. After that first trade, everything is fully open as
before. - A few helpful notes added. The instances page suggests bookmarking a few
instances (and their privacy-network addresses) since the order book lives
on-chain and is reachable through any of them; the privacy page now spells out
plainly what Morphit does and doesn't collect; and the "back up my keys" page
shows the right guidance when you signed in with only a posting key. - Small polish. Your avatar matches your public profile everywhere, the cards
on your Orders page lift on hover and press on click, rows with a checkbox or
radio button highlight on hover, and a number of labels and bits of wording
were tightened.
Under the hood
- Privacy-first by construction. The chain reads and the sign-in key check
now run server-side on the instance you're using, over its own vetted set of
nodes, so no outside party sees your IP or your account during normal use. The
parts that exist specifically to catch a misbehaving instance — verifying
signatures, release authenticity, and a chat correspondent's key — deliberately
still query the wider network directly, because routing those through a single
instance would defeat their purpose. - A dependency was updated to pick up upstream security fixes, which is why
this release needsnpm installon deploy. - More regression guards, and translation upkeep. New automated checks pin
the behaviors above so a future change can't quietly undo them, and every new
or reworded piece of on-screen text ships in all ten languages.

2026-06-19 03:48:48 +00:00 | 172 commits to main since this releaseA sign-in, session, and polish release. The headline is that your session now
follows you across browser tabs: open a Morphit link in a new tab — or reload
one tab while others stay open — and you no longer have to sign in again, with no
keys ever written to disk. And when you sign out, you now sign out of every open
tab at once. On top of that, signing in got more helpful as you type, your avatar
now matches your public profile everywhere, two broken account links are fixed,
and a handful of smaller annoyances are cleaned up.For operators: there's nothing required beyond deploying this build. Everything
in this release is on the visitor side — there are no configuration, service, or
command changes since beta.21.New
- Stay signed in across your open tabs. If you already have Morphit open and
unlocked in one tab, opening a link in a new tab (or reloading another tab)
picks up your session automatically — no second sign-in, not even a password
prompt. Your keys are handed from tab to tab in memory only; they are never
written to disk and they disappear the moment your last Morphit tab closes.
This is separate from "Remember me," which remains the opt-in for surviving a
full browser close. - Sign out everywhere at once. Signing out in one tab now also signs you out
of every other open Morphit tab, so an explicit sign-out leaves no session
lingering elsewhere. Closing a single tab, or letting a tab auto-lock after
idling, does not sign out your other tabs — only an explicit Sign Out does.
Fixed
- Account links in the block explorer and your orders now work. A couple of
links to an account's explorer page were showing a literal placeholder instead
of the account name and led nowhere. Both now go to the right place. - No more phantom "Draft restored" message on a fresh New Post. Arriving at
the New Post page from a prompt (for example the welcome flow, or a re-list)
could later pop up a "draft restored" banner for a draft you never wrote.
Pre-filled visits no longer save a stray draft, so the banner only appears for
a draft you actually started. - "Back up my keys" handles posting-key sign-ins correctly. If you signed in
with only a posting key, the page no longer offers a 12-word seed-phrase backup
that doesn't apply to you; it shows the right note and keeps your encrypted
keyfile backup.
Improved
- "Remember me on this device" now works however you sign in. Previously only
a seed-phrase sign-in could be remembered; signing in with a JSON keyfile or a
posting key is now offered the same choice. It stays unchecked by default, so
nothing is saved to your device unless you ask for it. - Your avatar now matches your profile everywhere. The little identicon next
to your name is now drawn from your account name consistently — so the avatar
in the top-right menu matches the one on your public profile, in the order
book, in chat, and everywhere else you appear. - The sign-in boxes check your input as you type. The account-name box
re-checks whenever you edit it and turns red with a clear "invalid" marker if
the name can't exist or isn't found on Blurt; the posting-key box flags an
obviously-wrong key (wrong length or prefix) the moment you paste it. A
connection problem never shows a false red — that isn't your fault. - Clearer wording in a few places. The welcome / first-trade card explains
more plainly what your first trade gets you, and several labels and notes
around saving links and keys were tightened. The "blurt.media" link box also
now catches a mistyped address that used to slip through. - Small polish. The square cards on your Orders page lift on hover and press
in on click like the rest of the site, and rows with a checkbox or radio button
now show a subtle highlight when you hover them.
Under the hood
- Regression guards for the cross-tab session work. New automated checks pin
the cross-tab sign-out so it propagates to sibling tabs, and — just as
importantly — verify the safety rule that closing a tab or an idle auto-lock
never signs you out of your other tabs. Closing this gap is what the release's
cross-tab sign-out is about. - Regression guards for the sign-in validation. The new live checks on the
account-name and posting-key boxes are pinned so a future edit can't quietly
undo them. - Translation upkeep. Every new and reworded piece of on-screen text ships in

2026-06-18 02:54:50 +00:00 | 174 commits to main since this releaseA sign-in and account-setup release. The headline fix is that signing in with a
Blurt posting key — and the final naming step of creating a brand-new account —
now work in the browser; both were crashing on a low-level type mismatch that
only showed up in the browser build, never in tests. On top of that, signing in
got clearer end to end: you can sign in with a seed phrase, a JSON keyfile, or a
posting key from one screen, the account-name box checks your name against Blurt
as you type, and the error messages now tell you exactly what went wrong instead
of a generic "import failed." New accounts now also receive all four of their
Blurt keys, each copyable and downloadable, with a plain warning about never
sharing them. A couple of smaller annoyances — the order book's filter menus not
closing when you tapped away, and the FAQ search jumping the page when you
pressed Enter — are fixed too.For operators: there's nothing required beyond deploying this build. Everything
in this release is on the visitor side — there are no configuration, service, or
command changes since beta.20.Fixed
- Signing in with your posting key now works. Pasting a Blurt posting key to
sign in was failing with a generic "import failed" message. The cause was a
low-level type mismatch (a key was handed to the Blurt library as the wrong
kind of byte array) that only surfaces in the browser, so automated tests
never caught it. It's fixed, and the same fix also repairs the final
name-registration step when creating a brand-new account, which was hitting the
identical problem. - The order book's filter menus close when you tap away. Opening the Asset,
Fiat, or Payment filter and then tapping somewhere else — including up in the
page header — used to leave the menu stuck open. All three now close on an
outside tap. - FAQ search no longer jumps the page when you press Enter. Typing a question
and pressing Enter used to scroll the page to a seemingly random spot. Enter is
now ignored in the FAQ search; you pick an answer from the suggestions list by
tapping it.
Improved
- Sign in with a seed phrase, a JSON keyfile, or a posting key — from one
screen. The sign-in screen now says exactly that, the "go back" link is a
real link, and the wording around using a posting key is clearer about what it
can and can't do (you can read, post, and trade, but changing your account keys
still needs a wallet like blurtwallet.com). - The account-name box checks your name as you type. It strips a leading "@"
for you, turns red if you type a character that can't be in a Blurt username,
and — once you've typed a valid name — quietly confirms with a "looks good!"
that the account actually exists on Blurt. - Much clearer sign-in errors. Instead of one generic failure message, the
sign-in flow now tells you precisely what happened and highlights the field at
fault: you pasted your master password instead of your posting key; you pasted
the wrong kind of key (owner, active, or memo); the key is valid but belongs
to a different account; the account name wasn't found; or the Blurt network
couldn't be reached (which is a connection problem, not a problem with your
key). - Pasting a seed phrase is more forgiving. If you paste a seed with commas
between the words, or with capital letters, Morphit tidies it up for you when
you click away from the box.
New
- New accounts now receive all four Blurt keys. When you create an account,
you can reveal your owner, active, posting, and memo keys, each with a one-tap
copy button and a "download as a text file" option. A prominent warning
explains, in plain language, that anyone holding one of these private keys has
full control of the account and its funds — so they should never be shared with
Morphit, support, friends, or any website. (Morphit never uses a master
password; these individual keys are what you keep.) The same panel is available
later from the Back up my keys page.
Under the hood
- New key-handling helpers, each proven to match the Blurt library exactly.
This release adds the ability to write out a private key in the standard Blurt
WIF format, to recognise when someone has pasted a master password instead of a
key (by comparing only public, on-chain information — never an oracle for any
secret), and to derive the four-key backup set. Each is verified byte-for-byte
against the reference Blurt library, both in-sandbox and by automated checks
that run on every build, and none of this key material is ever logged, stored,
or sent over the network. - Regression guards for the sign-in and order-book fixes. New automated
checks pin the posting-key conversion, the master-password detection, the seed
tidy-up, the four-key derivation, and the order book's tap-away-to-close
behaviour, so a future edit can't quietly undo them. - Translation upkeep. Every new piece of on-screen text ships in all ten
languages, and an unused leftover string was removed.

The optional Matrix alert bot is now something you set up and verify with two
short commands instead of hand-editing systemd, and several bugs that quietly
stopped it from starting on a fresh deploy are fixed. On the visitor side, the
home page and order book start faster, the "new version available" banner now
appears promptly when you come back to the tab, and a trade chat can offer a
one-tap prompt to turn on reply notifications. A wrong description of the
welcome bonus in the FAQ was corrected in every language.For operators: there's nothing required beyond deploying this build. If you want
Matrix alerts,morphit-ops matrix set @you:your.serverturns them on and
morphit-ops matrix testsends you a real test alert so you know delivery works
end to end. If you upgrade from beta.19 and had configured the alert bot, this
build is the first one where its service unit actually starts cleanly.Improved
- The home page and order book load faster. The browser no longer pulls the
elliptic-curve signing and seed-phrase libraries (and the Blurt client) into
the very first page load on pages that don't need them. First-paint JavaScript
on the home page dropped by roughly a fifth. These libraries still load the
moment you do something that needs them — create an account, sign in, open an
encrypted chat — and not before. - The "a new version is available" banner now appears promptly. It used to
rely on a slow background timer, so on mobile it could take several minutes to
notice a freshly deployed build (and on a desktop tab that was already up to
date it correctly showed nothing). It now re-checks the instant you bring the
tab back to the foreground, or when your connection comes back, so the prompt
shows up within a beat of an update being available. - Optional reply notifications inside a trade chat. When you open a trade
conversation, Morphit can offer a small, dismissible prompt to turn on chat
notifications so you're pinged when the other person replies even with the tab
closed. It rides the same private web-push mechanism the rest of the app uses
— an opaque browser endpoint, no email, phone number, or other personal detail
— and "Not now" hides it for good.
For operators
- Manage the Matrix alert bot with
morphit-ops matrix. The alert bot is
installed by default but only runs once you give it a valid Matrix username to
notify.morphit-ops matrix set @you:your.serverturns it on (and starts it),
morphit-ops matrix clearturns it off (and stops it), andmorphit-ops matrix
shows its current status. Upgrades re-check the setting automatically, so the
bot's running state always matches your configuration. - Confirm alerts actually reach you with
morphit-ops matrix test. One
command asks the running bot to send you a clearly-labelled test alert DM, so
you can verify the whole delivery path — token, direct message, encryption —
without the old manual log-watching dance. (The first message from the bot
arrives as a room invite you accept once.) - The alert bot's service unit now starts cleanly on a fresh deploy. Three
packaging bugs that could stop the unit from starting — a mount path it never
used, the wrong launcher path, and an over-restrictive/procsetting that
broke its log reader — are fixed. - Alerts from the shell-based system monitors now reliably reach the bot. On
some hosts, alerts emitted by the host/disk/firewall/etc. monitors were landing
in the journal without the unit attribution the bot filters on, so the bot
silently missed them. They now flow through the path that carries reliable
attribution. (If your indexer and relay are your only alert sources, you were
unaffected either way.)
Fixed
- The FAQ described the welcome bonus incorrectly. One FAQ answer said new
traders receive "10 BP delegated"; the welcome bonus is actually 10 Blurt plus
10 Blurt Power granted (powered up and owned, not a revocable delegation),
and it omitted the liquid Blurt entirely. This was corrected in all ten
languages, and a related reward-description wording fix was made in the two
Chinese locales. The fee and reward reference docs were brought into line.
Under the hood
- A slimmed production install can no longer break the services at launch.
The indexer, relay, Matrix bot, and MCP server all run their TypeScript source
throughtsxat runtime, but several of them only declaredtsxas a dev
dependency — so a production-style install (npm install --omit=dev,
NODE_ENV=production) would have stripped it and stopped those services from
starting.tsxis now a regular dependency wherever a service runs it, and a
new check fails the build if that ever regresses. - The
/devdiagnostic pages are disabled in production builds. The internal
diagnostic pages (icon catalogue, responsive-layout preview, and a hardware
security-key probe) were reachable on a deployed site. They now return "not
found" in a production build and are available only when running the app
locally for development. - DNS-rebinding hardening on the alert bot's local self-test endpoint, plus
a small set of audit-driven accuracy fixes across the documentation. - Dependency-licensing transparency. A
THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.mdnow documents
that the dependency tree is otherwise fully permissive except for one
source-available (no-military-use) runtime library, and a new check fails the
build if any non-free dependency license is introduced.

2026-06-15 19:40:09 +00:00 | 177 commits to main since this releaseA performance, privacy, and polish release. The biggest change is invisible: the
app no longer loads its ~1 MB cryptography library until you actually need it —
creating an account, signing in, or opening an encrypted chat — so first visits
to the home page, the order book, and trader profiles are now markedly lighter.
The app also stops quietly pinging every Blurt node the moment it loads, and it
now talks directly only to the Blurt nodes that work correctly in a browser —
both make the site quieter on the network and steadier in use. On top of that:
primary buttons across the site now share one brand color, the onboarding wizard
opens each step at the top, and the "a new version is available" banner no longer
reappears in a loop.For operators: there's nothing to do beyond deploying this build. The browser's
default direct-to-Blurt node list narrowed to the three nodes that serve correct
CORS headers, but all six remain in your server-side config and CSP, so failover
is unchanged.Improved
- Pages load faster — the cryptography library is now fetched only when it's
used. Morphit's signing/encryption library (libsodium) is about a megabyte,
and it was being pulled into the very first page load on every page,
including ones that never touch your keys (the home page, the order book, a
trader's profile). It now loads the first time you actually do something
cryptographic — create an account, sign in, open an encrypted chat, import a
key — and not before. If you're just browsing offers, that megabyte never
downloads. Nothing about the security changes: the same library does the same
work the moment a key is involved; it simply isn't fetched until then. - The app no longer probes every Blurt node the moment it opens. Previously,
opening the site kicked off background "are you alive?" requests to every
Blurt RPC node in the pool, so the mere act of loading a page produced a
fan-out of connections before you'd done anything. The client now reaches a
node only when it has a real request to make, and learns which nodes are
fastest from real traffic. Less noise on the network, and a smaller footprint
for simply visiting. - Steadier direct connections to Blurt. The set of Blurt nodes the browser
talks to directly is now limited to the three that return correct
cross-origin (CORS) headers, so the browser no longer spends attempts on nodes
it can't actually read from. The full set of nodes still backs the indexer and
relay on the server side (where CORS doesn't apply), so there's no loss of
redundancy — this only stops the browser from trying nodes a browser can't use
anyway. - One consistent button color across the whole site. Primary action buttons
— the header Start button and every filled call-to-action — now use a single
deepened brand teal (chosen so white text clears the WCAG AA contrast bar)
instead of a mix of greens, so the interface reads as one coherent set.
Fixed
- The "a new version is available" banner no longer loops. The small banner
that appears when a new build has been deployed could, in some navigation
patterns, re-fire repeatedly — popping back up after you'd dismissed it. It now
attaches its update listeners once per service-worker registration and reloads
at most once, so it shows up a single time and stays gone after you dismiss it. - The onboarding wizard now opens each step at the top. When the
create-account flow advanced from one step to the next, it could leave you
scrolled partway down the previous step. Each step now jumps to its own
heading, so you always start reading from the top.
Under the hood
- libsodium now sits behind a lazy accessor (
$lib/crypto/sodium): a single
module-levelsodiumbinding populated by a dynamic
import('libsodium-wrappers-sumo')the first timeensureSodium()is awaited.
Every async crypto entry point (keygen, keystore, WIF import, desktop pairing,
backup codes, YubiKey wrap) awaits it first; the handful of synchronous
sodium.*uses are all on paths that can only run after an async load has
already happened. A newlibsodium-not-in-baseline-closure-smokeasserts the
~1 MB chunk stays out of the every-page module-preload closure, and the chat
crypto is reached via a dynamicimport('$lib/chat/crypto')in the trade event
listener so it never anchors into the baseline either. - The endpoint rotator no longer calls
warmup()eagerly on construction. The
method remains available for explicit opt-in, but the default path probes
endpoints only on real demand, and the in-app endpoint list
(EndpointList.svelte) wires deliberate probing only where a human is actually
looking at node health. - The frontend default Blurt RPC pool (
config.tsDEFAULT_RPC_ENDPOINTS) is
now a curated subset — the three browser-CORS-clean nodes
(rpc.drakernoise.com,rpc.blurt.blog,blurt-rpc.saboin.com). The full
six-node canonical set still lives in@morphit/operator-config
DEFAULT_BLURT_RPC_ENDPOINTS(indexer + relay), both env examples, and the
four-surface CSPconnect-src.rpc-endpoint-canon-smokenow checks the
frontend list is a non-empty subset (no stray nodes, at least two for
failover, all HTTPS) while still pinning the server-side env examples to the
full set. - Dependency-audit review: the
npm auditgate gained documented allowlist
entries for three dev-only advisories nested undervite(a dev-server
path-traversal and two Windows-specific issues invite/launch-editor) and
theform-dataCRLF advisory reached only through the matrix-bot's transitive
requestdependency. None reach production — operators serve prebuilt static
assets with no Vite dev server running, and the matrix-bot makes only outbound,
operator-configured homeserver calls with field names it constructs itself. No
npm audit fix, no lockfile rewrite; the lockfile stays the tested source of
truth. - The press/media kit (
morphit-mediakit.zip) was regenerated for the new brand
color (the palette grew from six entries to seven), with the build script's
palette guard and the README color-standards table updated to match.

2026-06-15 04:53:58 +00:00 | 178 commits to main since this releaseA small operator-quality release, plus one user-facing fix. For users: the
printable backup card on the onboarding screen now renders instead of producing
a blank page. For operators: it removes a recurring upgrade nag and makes the
upgrade's "is the new build actually live?" check reliable — both changes are in
morphit-ops upgradeitself, with nothing extra to do beyond deploying it. This
release also expands the default Blurt RPC pool to six independent nodes and
makes the client back off properly from rate-limited endpoints, so chain reads
and broadcasts are steadier.Fixed
- The printable backup card no longer prints as a blank page. On the
onboarding "your keys are ready" screen, the Print backup card button could
open the print/PDF dialog showing a single empty page. The card was isolated
for printing using aposition: fixedelement inside a deliberately
collapsed page subtree — a combination some print-to-PDF engines drop
entirely. The card is now lifted to the top of the page and printed in normal
flow, so it renders reliably as a single clean page. (The seed words still
never leave your device — this is pure local rendering, no network, no PDF
library.) morphit-ops upgradenow tidies up old backups for you. Each upgrade
keeps a rotating set of/opt/morphit.bak-<timestamp>backups and prunes
the oldest. Previously, if you happened to have a leftover login shell, or a
pager left open from asystemctl status …, parked inside one of those old
backup directories, the upgrade refused to delete it and printed a[WARN]
asking you to go find and stop those processes — on every single upgrade.
The upgrade now prunes those backups anyway, because a parked shell or pager
is harmless (the system keeps it running fine even though its working
directory is gone). It still refuses to delete a backup only when something
is genuinely running its code from it — for example, a relay or indexer you
started by hand from the old tree — since deleting that out from under a live
service would be unsafe.- The post-upgrade "is the new frontend live?" check is now reliable. That
check, and the manual command it printed when it couldn't confirm
automatically, used to grep a token out of the service worker — but that
token is assembled at runtime and doesn't survive minification, so the check
almost always came back "could not auto-verify" and the suggested
curl … | grep -o 'morphit-[0-9]*'command returned nothing useful. It now
reads themorphit_versionfield from/verify.jsoninstead, which is a
single, stable value. If you ever need to confirm the served version by hand,
the upgrade now tells you to runcurl -s <your-site>/verify.jsonand check
that its"morphit_version"matches the build. - Two more Blurt RPC endpoints in the default pool, and rate-limited nodes
now back off properly. The default Blurt RPC set grew from four to six
independent public nodes (addedrpc.drakernoise.comand
blurtrpc.dagobert.uk), giving more headroom when an endpoint is slow or
down. Separately, when a node replies429 Too Many Requests, the client now
parks it on a dedicated, longer cool-off (starting at 30 s and escalating)
rather than re-trying it every couple of seconds — which was what kept
re-triggering the rate limit. While a node is parked, requests are served
from the other endpoints, so this is invisible in the UI; it just removes the
needless 429 round-trips. Operators running a hand-written reverse proxy or
CSP: if your deployment pins aconnect-srcallow-list, add the two new
origins (https://rpc.drakernoise.com https://blurtrpc.dagobert.uk) to it
and to your indexer/relay RPC env vars, or the browser/server will refuse to
reach them. A fresh install picks all six up automatically. - A clearer error when the database URL was never expanded. If a
MORPHIT_*_DATABASE_URLwas set to a value containing a shell command
substitution — e.g. a host written as$(docker inspect … )— environment
files are read literally (the shell never runs), so the substitution was
passed through verbatim andmorphit-opsfailed with a baffling
getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND $(docker inspect … ). The CLI now detects the
unexpanded$(…)/backticks up front and tells you exactly what happened and
how to fix it (resolve the host to a concrete IP, or publish the DB on
localhost), instead of a cryptic DNS error.
Under the hood
- The backup-prune safeguard previously keyed on whether any process had its
current working directory under the backup tree. That is a weak signal —
it caught harmless campers (shells,less/pager processes) and blocked the
prune forever. The newpidsRunningFromcheck instead looks at whether a
process's executable (/proc/<pid>/exe) or an absolute path in its command
line lives under the tree, which is the real "unsafe to delete" condition;
a process that merely parked its cwd there no longer blocks pruning. A new
regression smoke (upgrade-backup-prune) pins this so the prune cannot
silently revert to the cwd-blocks-forever behaviour. - The frontend freshness verification (
readBuiltVersion/
resolveServedVersion) now parsesbuild/verify.json'smorphit_versionon both
the built side and the served side, replacing the brittle service-worker
token grep. Theupgrade-frontend-deploysmoke was updated to cover the new
parseVerifyJsonVersionparser. - The RPC pool gained a dedicated rate-limit cooldown ladder
(DEFAULT_RATE_LIMIT_COOLDOWN_LADDER_MS, 30 s → 5 min) and an
isRateLimitErrorpredicate; a429now selects that longer ladder while
any other transport failure stays on the generic one. The single source of
truth for the default endpoint set (@morphit/operator-config
DEFAULT_BLURT_RPC_ENDPOINTS) carries the two new nodes, and the
non-importing copies (frontendconfig.ts, the two env examples, the
four-surface CSPconnect-src) are kept in sync byrpc-endpoint-canonand
csp-header-consistency. Newrpc-pool-smokescenarios cover the rate-limit
ladder and the predicate. morphit-ops' database-URL reader (readDatabaseUrl) now rejects an
unexpanded shell command substitution ($(…)/ backticks) with an actionable
message before pg is ever handed the literal host; pinned by a new
instance-env-loader-smokescenario.

2026-06-14 19:43:03 +00:00 | 179 commits to main since this releaseA focused follow-up to beta16: it fixes a layout regression in the orderbook
filters and makes the in-app update prompt more reliable. Everyone gets the
fixes; there is nothing for operators to do beyond deploying it.Fixed
- The orderbook filters no longer overlap each other. On narrow screens
(most visibly on phones), opening one filter could leave a second filter
painted on top of the open list — for example, the payment-method pills
appeared in the middle of the open currency list, and the controls looked
tangled together. Each filter now lifts cleanly above the others while it
is open and the idle filters sit behind the active one's backdrop, so only
one list shows at a time and tapping elsewhere closes it. This was a
display-only regression introduced in beta16; if you saw it, simply
loading this build fixes it (no cache clearing or reset needed once the
new build is served). - The "A Morphit update is available" prompt is more reliable. "Load it
now" now always applies the update — if the new version can't take over on
its own within a moment (which can happen right after a hard refresh), the
page reloads to pick it up instead of the button appearing to do nothing.
A stale prompt also no longer lingers after an update has already been
applied. (If your browser still shows a stuck prompt from before this
build, clearing the site's data once clears it.)
Under the hood
- The three orderbook selects (asset, currency, payment method) are stacked
on one page; each is its own stacking context, and at an equal z-index
sibling contexts paint in DOM order, so an open dropdown was being painted
under the filters that follow it. The fix makes each select's z-index
conditional on its open state — elevated above the shared backdrop while
open, dropped below it while closed — which both layers the open list
correctly and lets a tap on an idle filter close the open one. - A regression smoke (
orderbook-select-stacking) pins this layering across
all three components so a future edit cannot silently fall back to the flat
z-index that caused the overlap. - The update banner now clears its reference to a waiting service worker once
there is nothing left to apply (so it can't show a dead prompt), and "Load
it now" has a short fallback reload guarded against a double reload, for the
cases where thecontrollerchangeevent never fires (an uncontrolled page
after a hard refresh, or a wedged worker). Two new scenarios in
service-worker-single-registrationpin both behaviours.

2026-06-14 03:09:23 +00:00 | 180 commits to main since this releaseThis release has three threads: it makes the AI-agent (MCP) endpoint actually
reachable over the network, lands a batch of frontend fixes (chat links, the
currency picker, RSS filtering, the onboarding flow, and the in-app update
prompt), and — from a top-to-bottom security and correctness audit — fixes a
moderation bug that affected operators running a separate operator account.
Most people simply get the frontend improvements; the MCP and moderation
items matter only to operators who enabled those features.Fixed
-
The MCP server now actually runs as a network service. The persistent
morphit-mcpservice previously started and then stopped within a second
because it only spoke stdio, leaving nothing on its port and making the
advertised/mcpdiscovery URL unreachable. It now serves a real HTTP
endpoint and stays up. -
Upgrades roll the MCP forward automatically.
morphit-ops upgradenow
redeploys the MCP's isolated copy and restarts it as part of the upgrade
(only if you have it installed), so you no longer have to redeploy it by
hand after every version bump. -
Operator instance blocks now take effect when a separate operator
account is configured. If you setMORPHIT_INDEXER_OPERATOR_ACCOUNT_NAME
to an account different from your official account, accounts you blocked
were still appearing in your instance's orderbook, live stream, RSS feeds,
and per-account listings — the block was recorded under the operator
account, but the public surfaces were filtering by the official account.
They now all filter by the operator account, so a block applies
everywhere. The same fix was extended to two further paths: your
instance's derived (native) price feeds no longer count a blocked
seller's orders, andmorphit-ops blocknow writes the block under the
operator account so the CLI command is effective too. Instances that do
not set a separate operator account were never affected. -
Links in chat messages are now clickable. http/https URLs that a peer
sends are rendered as links (opening in a new tab, with no-referrer and
no-follow), while the rest of the message stays plain, escaped text. -
The currency picker now reaches every currency. The orderbook's fiat
filter previously stopped at the 50th currency alphabetically (it cut off
around Georgian lari); all currencies are now reachable. -
RSS feeds honor every filter, including on the all-assets feed. The
global/rss/orderbook.{xml,atom,json}feed now applies the same side,
currency, region, payment-method, and minimum-trades filters the per-asset
feeds already supported, and the orderbook's RSS button now appears for
filtered all-asset views as well. -
The onboarding "Leave anyway" button now actually leaves. A guard bug
could re-cancel the navigation so the confirmation did nothing; it now
navigates as expected. -
Switching language during onboarding no longer wipes your progress.
The language switcher now changes locale in place on the onboarding
screens instead of reloading the page, so your current step, your inputs,
and any freshly generated keys survive the switch. -
The in-app "update available" prompt is back. A new version was
silently auto-activating and reloading the page mid-task instead of
showing the "Load it now / Later" prompt; updates are once again
consent-gated. The offline-shell recovery is unaffected (it comes from
network-first navigation, not from the auto-activation that was removed). -
The "Back up your keys" help tooltip is fixed. It now flips above the
icon when there is no room below (so it is not cut off at the bottom of
the screen), its "Learn more" opens the FAQ in a new tab (so it cannot
discard your in-progress keys), and tapping the info icon reliably opens
it on touch devices.
Added / changed
-
Hardened HTTP transport for the MCP. It binds loopback by default and
is locked down in depth: DNS-rebinding protection (Host/Origin
allowlists), a per-client rate limit, a hard request-body cap, a
concurrent-connection ceiling, slow-client timeouts, and a fail-closed
bind that refuses all-interfaces or a public address unless you explicitly
opt in. Local AI tools that launch the server themselves (Claude Desktop,
Cline, Cursor, and the like) keep using the simpler stdio mode — no change
for them. -
Works behind a dockerized reverse proxy (e.g. BunkerWeb). Because a
containerized proxy cannot reach the host's loopback, you can bind the MCP
to the Docker bridge gateway instead — setMORPHIT_MCP_HTTP_HOSTto your
bridge address (commonly172.18.0.1) in/etc/morphit/mcp.env, exactly
the way the indexer and relay are reached. Private and bridge addresses are
allowed without any override; only public binds require one. -
A
/healthendpoint so you can confirm the MCP is up directly:
curl http://127.0.0.1:8124/health(or your bridge address). It is also
reflected inmorphit-ops health, alongside a new web-push status line in
the relay block. -
Lighter first load on the orderbook. The payment-method filter's data
now loads on first use instead of shipping in the initial bundle (the
currency filter already worked this way), so the orderbook page starts
smaller. -
Smaller polish. The side, minimum-trades, and sort dropdowns now show
a pointer cursor; password, key, and seed-phrase fields carry sensible
maximum lengths that never truncate a valid value.
Under the hood
- New behavioral and static smoke tests exercise the HTTP transport end to
end (protocol handshake, tool listing, and every defense — Host/Origin
rejection, method/path/content-type guards, body cap, rate limit, and the
bind guard for all-interfaces and public addresses versus private and
bridge ones). Operator-block filtering is now guarded too, so a read
surface cannot drift back to filtering by the wrong account. - ADR-0044 records the MCP transport decision (stateless JSON, loopback,
security posture, stdio retained for local agents). - The operator docs (OPERATIONS, run-a-node) were reconciled — they had both
claimed the MCP was "stdio, no HTTP health endpoint" and, elsewhere,
described an HTTP/mcpreverse-proxy block; they are now consistent, and
a manual-install ordering issue (deploying before creating the service
user) is fixed. A troubleshooting entry was added for broken account
avatars, which are caused by a stale deploy-side Content-Security-Policy
rather than by any code change. - Peer-sent chat links are made safe without unescaping any peer text, and
developer-only comments were removed from the served HTML shell. - A top-to-bottom security and correctness audit was completed — covering
forged-field resistance across every chain handler, the fee and feedback
mechanics, the featured-slot auction, the smoke battery itself, and the
operator documentation. It surfaced the operator-block account mismatch
above; a follow-up review then found and fixed the same mismatch in two
more places — the derived price feeds and the operator CLI — so the block
now applies consistently across every surface. Each is covered by a
regression test.
