Morphit v1.9.7
Hardware-key (YubiKey) enrollment
Binding a YubiKey to your keystore as a second unlock method now speaks the full HMAC-SHA1 challenge-response protocol to your key over the browser's hardware-device connection. If you have a YubiKey with a slot configured for challenge-response — set it up with Yubico's free YubiKey Manager app, slot 2 by convention — you can enroll it from Settings → Hardware key in a Chromium browser (Chrome, Edge, or Brave). Enrollment always proves your key is genuinely answering before it commits anything, and your passphrase and 12-word seed phrase always remain, so a key that isn't set up for this can never lock you out.
Clearer YubiKey setup guidance
The enrollment card used to point you at the wrong tool for configuring your key. It now names the correct one — YubiKey Manager, which programs the challenge-response slot — instead of Yubico Authenticator, which manages one-time codes and can't set up the slot. The slot picker also explains, in plainer terms, why slot 2 is the usual choice.
A tidier download page
The "Why so many mirrors?" note on the download page no longer carries a stray line about mirrors that were "coming soon." Every mirror listed is live, and each is still verifiable against the signed tag and the on-chain SHA-256.
Smaller touches
- Clearer key-entry hints. The fields where you paste a posting or active key now show the correct example format — "5J… or 5K…" — since those private keys always begin with 5J or 5K.
- A nudge toward a strong password. When you first set the password that unlocks Morphit on your device, the hint now reminds you to choose a strong password of at least 8 characters.
- Order terms look sharper. When you use Markdown in your order terms, the bullet points, numbered-list numbers, and horizontal rules now render in Morphit's brand green — matching the quote blocks.
For operators
There is nothing new to do. This release changes the web app and its wording only — no new operator steps, and the on-chain release format is unchanged and fully backward-compatible.
