Lute Wallet 2.0 ships unified keystore, Haystack Router swaps and Dark, Light and Gold themes
Covered by 3 sources
Lute Wallet 2.0 is live for both the web app and browser extension. The release introduces a unified keystore that consolidates all stored keys under a single password, integrated asset swapping powered by Haystack Router from TxnLab (MainNet only), and a full UI redesign with Dark, Light and Gold themes and an improved mobile layout. Existing accounts from version 1.x migrate automatically on first password entry; older 1.x stored keys require a one-time mnemonic re-entry. Ledger and passkey accounts are unaffected.
The official X post also lists support for HD, Algo25 and Falcon account types, auto-lock, and cross-platform sync between the web app and the extension. The Reddit announcement adds that mnemonic export is now available from the account menu, a detail not present in the X post.
