The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit fixes a bug where a Bitcoin wallet's displayed balance could become stale or be overwritten with an outdated value. The changes make balance updates copy the new value instead of sharing a reference, recalculate balances per account, avoid updating balances when the network connection is lost, and make address validation non-blocking so it doesn't freeze the app. There is no direct evidence this was exploited or treated as a security vulnerability by the vendor.

Recommended action

Review whether stale or incorrect balances could mislead users during transactions; consider whether the fix should be backported and whether a CVE or security advisory is warranted if balance manipulation could affect user funds. No immediate exploit path is evident from the diff alone.
