Known Limitations:

• CLI Wallet & Laser Beam Channels: Ensure the CLI wallet remains online when using active laser beam channels; it should not be offline for over 24 hours to avoid disruptions.

• Offline Address Usage: Do not offer the same offline address to multiple senders of payments, as this can lead to complications and tracking issues.

• DApp Store - Ubuntu 22+ Issue: Users on Ubuntu 22 and newer versions might experience issues with loading app icons in the DApp Store. This is under investigation.

---

Points to Mention:

• Atomic Swaps Requirement: For users intending to execute Atomic Swaps with ETH, DAI, WBTC, and USDT, it is necessary to create an account on Infura.

• Public Offline Address Transparency: Be aware that when sending funds to a receiver's Public Offline Address, the sender might deduce when those funds are subsequently used. This transparency aspect is crucial in understanding the privacy dynamics of Beam wallet transactions.
