Ame geɖe kekeawo zãa Zcash to wɔa dɔ kple light wallet, si menɔa blockchain bliboa gɔme o. Le esime ma teƒe la, eƒoa nu kple server si wɔ dɔ ma xoxo. Axa sia aɖe nyateƒe le server siawo ŋu, nu si woate ŋu akpɔ tso gbɔwò kple nu si womate ŋu akpɔ o, aleke nàto wò kadodo ɖe Tor dzi, kple aleke nàtrɔ server si wò gakotoku zãa.
Mɔ̃ ƒe ɖoɖowo eve le light wallets ƒe subɔsubɔ wɔm egbe. lightwalletd nye subɔsubɔ gbãtɔ, si wotu kple Go. Zaino nye indexer yeye si wotu kple Rust, eye wotu eŋu le zcashd ƒe deprecation dɔwɔwɔ me.
Nu si light wallet server wɔa
Light wallet server nɔa wò gakotoku kple Zcash blockchain dome, eye wònaa ɖoɖonu la ƒe nukpɔkpɔ si me data ƒe zãzã medze dɔ ge o. Ewɔ nu etɔ na wò.

Etsɔa wò gaɖoɖowo yi. Ne nèɖo ga la, wò gakotoku naa gaɖoɖo si woɖo nu blibo la server la, eye server la ɖee gbe le network la me.
Eɖoa biabiawo ŋu tso ɖoɖonu la ŋu, abe fifi ƒe kɔkɔme kple adzɔ ƒe nyatakaka si wò gakotoku hia ene.
Wò gakotoku gale asixɔxɔ dɔa wɔm le afi si nèle. Etsɔa wò safuiwo ɖe asi, eɣe ɣaɣlaŋlɔŋlɔ le gaɖoɖowo ƒuƒoƒewo ŋu be wòakpɔ wò didienuwo, eye wòwɔa eye wòdea asi gaɖoɖowo ŋu le wò mɔ̃ dzi.

Eyae nye akpa si wòasu be woawɔ vodada le. Wò safuiwo menoa wò mɔ̃ dzi o, ke esia menye be server la mesrɔ̃ naneke tso gbɔwò o.

Emegbe la, nu si woɣlã o lae nye. Threat model la bu esiawo be wonye gbɔdzɔdzɔ siwo woanya tso traffic ƒe kpɔla ƒe ŋu:

Eyata, nyateƒe ƒe tatae nye esi. Light wallet server mate ŋu azã wò ga o, eye mate ŋu axle asixɔxɔwo alo nya kpuiawo si le wò ɣaɣla gaɖoɖowo me o.
