Serious problem with Electrum-Mona 1.0.6

  1. Tried to send a payment to a Monacoin address (rbf enabled, change address obfuscation enabled)
  2. Transaction was broadcasted
  3. The change was received to three address, but the initial destination address was missing from the transaction, instead there was an unknown address that received the amount I sent (1 Mona).

The amount was negligible as I wanted to test before transferring the whole lot of coins, but I could have been in trouble right now.


Once I realized the problem I decided to run away from this wallet.

  1. I installed Monawallet
  2. I exported my private keys from Electrum-Mona
  3. I imported these keys into Monawallet.

I was unable to find an 'issues' tab on github repo, so this subreddit seems like the only place I can share my problem. Please beware of Electrum-Mona 1.0.6 (IDK if the issue was fixed in the current 3.1.0 version!)

I use Electrum on macOS so this is very unlikely any malware is the cause. I I watch for my system vary carefully.
