Particl Desktop 2.2.0 Released

Cancel bids, settings, UI/UX & flow improvements, & more 💫

Earlier today, just a few hours after the Open Marketplace reached its all-time high number of listings, Particl Desktop 2.2.0 was released on mainnet! This update brings one of most awaited feature since the Open Marketplace’s mainnet launch on the 12th of August— bid cancellation.

Prior to Particl Desktop 2.2.0, it was possible, but not user-friendly, to cancel a bid/order up until the seller either accepted or rejected it. This led to situations where buyers would need to wait a long time, or some “advanced Particl knowledge”, until they could access their funds again. This update fixes that issue entirely by making it possible for both parties to cancel a bid/order at any time up until the moment both party’s funds are fully locked in escrow.

Wallet-Specific Settings Page

This Particl Desktop update also brings forward the new Settings page. It can be accessed by clicking the Settings icon at the bottom left corner of the client.

The Settings page lets you control some preferences right from the Particl Desktop client and without having to manually edit configuration files. This is the first iteration of the Settings page and more options will be added over time.

This update also introduces a bunch of general improvements, tweaks, and issue fixes, making Particl Desktop 2.2.0 the smoothest Particl experience so far.
