Spark wallet review · checked 2026-09-11
Wallet of Satoshi and Spark
Wallet of Satoshi is included in this review of wallets and wallet surfaces that use, expose, or publicly describe Spark. The question tested here was whether the reviewed product provides a complete in-app unilateral-exit workflow when Spark operators are unavailable.
Review result
Unverified from the available public surface
The new recovery-phrase article explicitly says a conventional Bitcoin wallet will not recreate the Spark balance and directs users to compatible Spark software. The disclosure still describes permissionless exits, but the reviewed public instructions do not supply an operator-outage procedure for preserving state and executing recovery. In-app exit support remains unverified because the application code and binary were not inspected.
Surface reviewed: public documentation and source availability
Release or source boundary: Disclosure 1.23 (August 25) and recovery guidance updated August 31, checked September 11. App source and binary behavior were not audited.
What the review found
published description of unilateral exit as a permissionless alternative seed-backup and ordinary wallet-restore guidance explicit documentation that Spark recovery needs compatible key derivation and software
What this does not establish
This is a dated, bounded review of the named source, release or public documentation. It does not establish that every version behaves identically, that a private implementation has no recovery path, or that protocol-level unilateral exit is impossible. A partial SDK capability, seed backup or cooperative withdrawal is not counted as a complete operatorless mobile recovery flow.
Evidence and limits
- No source-code absence claim is made.
- Private application code or a later product release may contain capabilities not documented publicly.
- The finding is limited to the cited disclosure and publicly accessible product records; it does not assess unavailable application code.
