Wallet
The native wallet is a full-node application. It derives addresses, proves spending authority, submits transactions, follows Live State, verifies blocks and stores payment receipts on the same device.
Its bundled node is a private application component. The wallet starts it without a terminal, communicates through local RPC and shuts it down cleanly when the application exits.
Screenshots of populated wallet pages use the built-in preview dataset. Addresses, balances, blocks and transaction identifiers shown in them are illustrative.

The active address
One derived address is active at a time. It supplies:
- the owner used for a new payment's inputs;
- the address that receives change;
- the default internal-mining payout.
The wallet still scans and displays generated inactive addresses. It does not silently combine their UTXOs into a payment from the active address.
Local proving
When Proof & Send is selected, the form locks while the wallet constructs a fresh authorization capsule. Mining CPU work yields to the local operation. The secret never enters a transaction field or leaves the wallet process.
After successful submission, the final panel reports the logical transaction ID and public payment facts. Confirmation is tracked by the node and the wallet later saves a receipt.
Local data
The default data directory is:
~/.parano1d/data
on Linux and macOS, and the equivalent .parano1d\data directory under the
Windows user profile.
The master secret is stored in wallet.key. Saved receipts are stored in
wallet.receipts. Interface preferences are in
~/.parano1d/gui-settings.json.
The master-secret file is not password-encrypted. Protect the operating-system account and back up the secret before receiving funds.
