I'm running a production instance of bytecoin.
walletd requires to enter a password via stdin.
There's deprecated method to enter it via argv param.

Maybe there should be an option to specify a file with a password, so I can store passwd here and chmod 600 that file, so nobody else can touch it?

I agree. I have been running into a similar problem. I'm likely going to make the modification my self very soon. I may set up an option to get the variable from the environment as well.

I have not tested the file one but it should work. The environment variables work perfectly however.

@KrzysztofHajdamowicz Please have a look at the subsection in our wiki where we give a recipe for doing this right.

This isn't a solution for doing this right via systemd.
