I’m trying to structure my time a bit better, so I’ve decided to dedicate Thursdays to MVPs, greenfield ideas, and exploration projects.

Today’s project: electrs-duress.

It’s a tiny Bun proxy that sits between your wallet and its Electrum server. The proxy listens for scripthash requests and can send an alert via Telegram or webhook when a specific wallet balance is being checked.

The idea is simple: configure the proxy with the xpub of your decoy wallet. If you ever find yourself in a $5 wrench attack situation, you unlock the decoy wallet. Your wallet software will naturally ask the connected Electrum server for balances, which triggers a silent alarm in electrs-duress and sends the notification of your choice.
