GUI changes
|
|
||||||
-----------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Configuration changes made in the bitcoin GUI (such as the pruning setting,
|
|
||||||
proxy settings, UPNP preferences) are now saved to `<datadir>/settings.json`
|
|
||||||
file rather than to the Qt settings backend (windows registry or unix desktop
|
|
||||||
config files), so these settings will now apply to bitcoind, instead of being
|
|
||||||
ignored.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Also, the interaction between GUI settings and `bitcoin.conf` settings is
|
|
||||||
simplified. Settings from `bitcoin.conf` are now displayed normally in the GUI
|
|
||||||
settings dialog, instead of in a separate warning message ("Options set in this
|
|
||||||
dialog are overridden by the configuration file: -setting=value"). And these
|
|
||||||
settings can now be edited because `settings.json` values take precedence over
|
|
||||||
`bitcoin.conf` values.

Migrating Legacy Wallets to Descriptor Wallets
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
An experimental RPC `migratewallet` has been added to migrate Legacy (non-descriptor) wallets to
|
|
||||||
Descriptor wallets. More information about the migration process is available in the
|
|
||||||
[documentation](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/managing-wallets.md#migrating-legacy-wallets-to-descriptor-wallets).

Updated REST APIs
|
|
||||||
-----------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The `/headers/` and `/blockfilterheaders/` endpoints have been updated to use
|
|
||||||
a query parameter instead of path parameter to specify the result count. The
|
|
||||||
count parameter is now optional, and defaults to 5 for both endpoints. The old
|
|
||||||
endpoints are still functional, and have no documented behaviour change.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For `/headers`, use
|
|
||||||
`GET /rest/headers/<BLOCK-HASH>.<bin|hex|json>?count=<COUNT=5>`
|
|

instead of
|
|

New RPCs

|

|
|

- The `sendall` RPC spends specific UTXOs to one or more recipients
|
|

without creating change. By default, the `sendall` RPC will spend
|
|
||||||
every UTXO in the wallet. `sendall` is useful to empty wallets or to
|
|
||||||
create a changeless payment from select UTXOs. When creating a payment
|
|
||||||
from a specific amount for which the recipient incurs the transaction
|
|
||||||
fee, continue to use the `subtractfeefromamount` option via the
|
|
||||||
`send`, `sendtoaddress`, or `sendmany` RPCs. (#24118)

descriptors for P2WSH in a watchonly wallet to track coins, but you can't spend from them using

the Bitcoin Core wallet yet.

*version* Release Notes Draft

Bitcoin Core version *version* is now available from:

|
||||||
|

This release includes new features, various bug fixes and performance
|
|
||||||
improvements, as well as updated translations.

How to Upgrade
|
|
||||||
==============
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
|
|
||||||
shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the
|
|
||||||
installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on Mac)
|
|
||||||
or `bitcoind`/`bitcoin-qt` (on Linux).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Upgrading directly from a version of Bitcoin Core that has reached its EOL is
|
|
||||||
possible, but it might take some time if the data directory needs to be migrated. Old
|
|
||||||
wallet versions of Bitcoin Core are generally supported.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Compatibility
|
|
||||||
==============
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Bitcoin Core is supported and extensively tested on operating systems
|
|
||||||
using the Linux kernel, macOS 10.15+, and Windows 7 and newer. Bitcoin
|
|
||||||
Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not as
|
|
||||||
frequently tested on them. It is not recommended to use Bitcoin Core on
|
|
||||||
unsupported systems.

Updated RPCs
|

------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The `-deprecatedrpc=softforks` configuration option has been removed. The
|
|
||||||
RPC `getblockchaininfo` no longer returns the `softforks` field, which was
|
|
||||||
previously deprecated in 23.0. (#23508) Information on soft fork status is
|
|
||||||
now only available via the `getdeploymentinfo` RPC.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The `deprecatedrpc=exclude_coinbase` configuration option has been removed.
|
|
||||||
The `receivedby` RPCs (`listreceivedbyaddress`, `listreceivedbylabel`,
|
|
||||||
`getreceivedbyaddress` and `getreceivedbylabel`) now always return results
|
|
||||||
accounting for received coins from coinbase outputs, without an option to
|
|
||||||
change that behaviour. Excluding coinbases was previously deprecated in 23.0.
|
|
||||||
(#25171)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The `deprecatedrpc=fees` configuration option has been removed. The top-level
|
|
||||||
fee fields `fee`, `modifiedfee`, `ancestorfees` and `descendantfees` are no
|
|
||||||
longer returned by RPCs `getmempoolentry`, `getrawmempool(verbose=true)`,
|
|
||||||
`getmempoolancestors(verbose=true)` and `getmempooldescendants(verbose=true)`.
|
|
||||||
The same fee fields can be accessed through the `fees` object in the result.
|
|
||||||
The top-level fee fields were previously deprecated in 23.0. (#25204)
