+* On startup, the list of banned hosts and networks (via `setban` RPC) in
+ `banlist.dat` is ignored and only `banlist.json` is considered. Bitcoin Core
+ version 22.x is the only version that can read `banlist.dat` and also write
+ it to `banlist.json`. If `banlist.json` already exists, version 22.x will not
+ try to translate the `banlist.dat` into json. After an upgrade, `listbanned`
+ can be used to double check the parsed entries. (#22570)
