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 10.12+, 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. + +From Bitcoin Core 0.20.0 onwards, macOS versions earlier than 10.12 are no +longer supported. Additionally, Bitcoin Core does not yet change appearance +when macOS "dark mode" is activated. + +The node's known peers are persisted to disk in a file called `peers.dat`. The +format of this file has been changed in a backwards-incompatible way in order to +accommodate the storage of Tor v3 and other BIP155 addresses. This means that if +the file is modified by 0.21.0 or newer then older versions will not be able to +read it. Those old versions, in the event of a downgrade, will log an error +message "Incorrect keysize in addrman deserialization" and will continue normal +operation as if the file was missing, creating a new empty one. (#19954, #20284) + +Notable changes +=============== + +P2P and network changes +----------------------- + +- The mempool now tracks whether transactions submitted via the wallet or RPCs + have been successfully broadcast. Every 10-15 minutes, the node will try to + announce unbroadcast transactions until a peer requests it via a `getdata` + message or the transaction is removed from the mempool for other reasons. + The node will not track the broadcast status of transactions submitted to the + node using P2P relay. This version reduces the initial broadcast guarantees + for wallet transactions submitted via P2P to a node running the wallet. (#18038) + +- The size of the set of transactions that peers have announced and we consider + for requests has been reduced from 100000 to 5000 (per peer), and further + announcements will be ignored when that limit is reached. If you need to dump + (very) large batches of transactions, exceptions can be made for trusted + peers using the "relay" network permission. For localhost for example it can + be enabled using the command line option `-whitelist=relay@127.0.0.1`. + (#19988) + +- This release adds support for Tor version 3 hidden services, and rumoring them + over the network to other peers using + [BIP155](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0155.mediawiki). + Version 2 hidden services are still fully supported by Bitcoin Core, but the + Tor network will start + [deprecating](https://blog.torproject.org/v2-deprecation-timeline) them in the + coming months. (#19954) + +- The Tor onion service that is automatically created by setting the + `-listenonion` configuration parameter will now be created as a Tor v3 service + instead of Tor v2. The private key that was used for Tor v2 (if any) will be + left untouched in the `onion_private_key` file in the data directory (see + `-datadir`) and can be removed if not needed. Bitcoin Core will no longer + attempt to read it. The private key for the Tor v3 service will be saved in a + file named `onion_v3_private_key`. To use the deprecated Tor v2 service (not + recommended), the `onion_private_key` can be copied over + `onion_v3_private_key`, e.g. + `cp -f onion_private_key onion_v3_private_key`. (#19954) + +- The client writes a file (`anchors.dat`) at shutdown with the network addresses + of the node’s two outbound block-relay-only peers (so called "anchors"). The + next time the node starts, it reads this file and attempts to reconnect to those + same two peers. This prevents an attacker from using node restarts to trigger a + complete change in peers, which would be something they could use as part of an + eclipse attack. (#17428) + +- This release adds support for serving + [BIP157](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0157.mediawiki) compact + filters to peers on the network when enabled using + `-blockfilterindex=1 -peercfilters=1`. (#16442) + +- This release adds support for signets + ([BIP325](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0325.mediawiki)) in + addition to the existing mainnet, testnet, and regtest networks. Signets are + centrally-controlled test networks, allowing them to be more predictable + test environments than the older testnet. One public signet is maintained, and + selectable using `-signet`. It is also possible to create personal signets. + (#18267). + +- This release implements + [BIP339](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0339.mediawiki) + wtxid relay. When negotiated, transactions are announced using their wtxid + instead of their txid. (#18044). + +- This release implements the proposed Taproot consensus rules + ([BIP341](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0341.mediawiki) and + [BIP342](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0342.mediawiki)), + without activation on mainnet. Experimentation with Taproot can be done on + signet, where its rules are already active. (#19553) + +Updated RPCs +------------ + +- The `getpeerinfo` RPC has a new `network` field that provides the type of + network ("ipv4", "ipv6", or "onion") that the peer connected through. (#20002) + +- The `getpeerinfo` RPC now has additional `last_block` and `last_transaction` + fields that return the UNIX epoch time of the last block and the last *valid* + transaction received from each peer. (#19731) + +- `getnetworkinfo` now returns two new fields, `connections_in` and + `connections_out`, that provide the number of inbound and outbound peer + connections. These new fields are in addition to the existing `connections` + field, which returns the total number of peer connections. (#19405) + +- Exposed transaction version numbers are now treated as unsigned 32-bit + integers instead of signed 32-bit integers. This matches their treatment in + consensus logic. Versions greater than 2 continue to be non-standard + (matching previous behavior of smaller than 1 or greater than 2 being + non-standard). Note that this includes the `joinpsbt` command, which combines + partially-signed transactions by selecting the highest version number. + (#16525) + +- `getmempoolinfo` now returns an additional `unbroadcastcount` field. The + mempool tracks locally submitted transactions until their initial broadcast + is acknowledged by a peer. This field returns the count of transactions + waiting for acknowledgement. + +- Mempool RPCs such as `getmempoolentry` and `getrawmempool` with + `verbose=true` now return an additional `unbroadcast` field. This indicates + whether initial broadcast of the transaction has been acknowledged by a + peer. `getmempoolancestors` and `getmempooldescendants` are also updated. + +- The `getpeerinfo` RPC no longer returns the `banscore` field unless the configuration + option `-deprecatedrpc=banscore` is used. The `banscore` field will be fully + removed in the next major release. (#19469) + +- The `testmempoolaccept` RPC returns `vsize` and a `fees` object with the `base` fee + if the transaction would pass validation. (#19940) + +- The `getpeerinfo` RPC now returns a `connection_type` field. This indicates + the type of connection established with the peer. It will return one of six + options. For more information, see the `getpeerinfo` help documentation. + (#19725) + +- The `getpeerinfo` RPC no longer returns the `addnode` field by default. This + field will be fully removed in the next major release. It can be accessed + with the configuration option `-deprecatedrpc=getpeerinfo_addnode`. However, + it is recommended to instead use the `connection_type` field (it will return + `manual` when addnode is true). (#19725) + +- The `getpeerinfo` RPC no longer returns the `whitelisted` field by default. + This field will be fully removed in the next major release. It can be accessed + with the configuration option `-deprecatedrpc=getpeerinfo_whitelisted`. However, + it is recommended to instead use the `permissions` field to understand if specific + privileges have been granted to the peer. (#19770) + +- The `walletcreatefundedpsbt` RPC call will now fail with + `Insufficient funds` when inputs are manually selected but are not enough to cover + the outputs and fee. Additional inputs can automatically be added through the + new `add_inputs` option. (#16377) + +- The `fundrawtransaction` RPC now supports `add_inputs` option that when `false` + prevents adding more inputs if necessary and consequently the RPC fails. + +Changes to Wallet or GUI related RPCs can be found in the GUI or Wallet section below. + +New RPCs +-------- + +- The `getindexinfo` RPC returns the actively running indices of the node, + including their current sync status and height. It also accepts an `index_name` + to specify returning the status of that index only. (#19550) + +Build System +------------ + +Updated settings +---------------- + +- The same ZeroMQ notification (e.g. `-zmqpubhashtx=address`) can now be + specified multiple times to publish the same notification to different ZeroMQ + sockets. (#18309) + +- The `-banscore` configuration option, which modified the default threshold for + disconnecting and discouraging misbehaving peers, has been removed as part of + changes in 0.20.1 and in this release to the handling of misbehaving peers. + Refer to "Changes regarding misbehaving peers" in the 0.20.1 release notes for + details. (#19464) + +- The `-debug=db` logging category, which was deprecated in 0.20 and replaced by + `-debug=walletdb` to distinguish it from `coindb`, has been removed. (#19202) + +- A `download` permission has been extracted from the `noban` permission. For + compatibility, `noban` implies the `download` permission, but this may change + in future releases. Refer to the help of the affected settings `-whitebind` + and `-whitelist` for more details. (#19191) + +- Netmasks that contain 1-bits after 0-bits (the 1-bits are not contiguous on + the left side, e.g. 255.0.255.255) are no longer accepted. They are invalid + according to RFC 4632. Netmasks are used in the `-rpcallowip` and `-whitelist` + configuration options and in the `setban` RPC. (#19628) + +- The `-blocksonly` setting now completely disables fee estimation. (#18766) + +Changes to Wallet or GUI related settings can be found in the GUI or Wallet section below. + +Tools and Utilities +------------------- + +- A new `bitcoin-cli -netinfo` command provides a network peer connections + dashboard that displays data from the `getpeerinfo` and `getnetworkinfo` RPCs + in a human-readable format. An optional integer argument from `0` to `4` may + be passed to see increasing levels of detail. (#19643) + +- A new `bitcoin-cli -generate` command, equivalent to RPC `generatenewaddress` + followed by `generatetoaddress`, can generate blocks for command line testing + purposes. This is a client-side version of the former `generate` RPC. See the + help for details. (#19133) + +- The `bitcoin-cli -getinfo` command now displays the wallet name and balance for + each of the loaded wallets when more than one is loaded (e.g. in multiwallet + mode) and a wallet is not specified with `-rpcwallet`. (#18594) + +- The `connections` field of `bitcoin-cli -getinfo` is now expanded to return a JSON + object with `in`, `out` and `total` numbers of peer connections. It previously + returned a single integer value for the total number of peer connections. (#19405) + +New settings +------------ + +- The `startupnotify` option is used to specify a command to + execute when Bitcoin Core has finished with its startup + sequence. (#15367) + +Wallet +------ + +- Backwards compatibility has been dropped for two `getaddressinfo` RPC + deprecations, as notified in the 0.20 release notes. The deprecated `label` + field has been removed as well as the deprecated `labels` behavior of + returning a JSON object containing `name` and `purpose` key-value pairs. Since + 0.20, the `labels` field returns a JSON array of label names. (#19200) + +- To improve wallet privacy, the frequency of wallet rebroadcast attempts is + reduced from approximately once every 15 minutes to once every 12-36 hours. + To maintain a similar level of guarantee for initial broadcast of wallet + transactions, the mempool tracks these transactions as a part of the newly + introduced unbroadcast set. See the "P2P and network changes" section for + more information on the unbroadcast set. (#18038) + +- The `sendtoaddress` and `sendmany` RPCs accept an optional `verbose=True` + argument to also return the fee reason about the sent tx. (#19501) + +- The wallet can create a transaction without change even when the keypool is + empty. Previously it failed. (#17219) + +- The `-salvagewallet` startup option has been removed. A new `salvage` command + has been added to the `bitcoin-wallet` tool which performs the salvage + operations that `-salvagewallet` did. (#18918) + +- A new configuration flag `-maxapsfee` has been added, which sets the max + allowed avoid partial spends (APS) fee. It defaults to 0 (i.e. fee is the + same with and without APS). Setting it to -1 will disable APS, unless + `-avoidpartialspends` is set. (#14582) + +- The wallet will now avoid partial spends (APS) by default, if this does not + result in a difference in fees compared to the non-APS variant. The allowed + fee threshold can be adjusted using the new `-maxapsfee` configuration + option. (#14582) + +- The `createwallet`, `loadwallet`, and `unloadwallet` RPCs now accept + `load_on_startup` options to modify the settings list. Unless these options + are explicitly set to true or false, the list is not modified, so the RPC + methods remain backwards compatible. (#15937) + +- A new `send` RPC with similar syntax to `walletcreatefundedpsbt`, including + support for coin selection and a custom fee rate, is added. The `send` RPC is + experimental and may change in subsequent releases. (#16378) + +- The `estimate_mode` parameter is now case-insensitive in the `bumpfee`, + `fundrawtransaction`, `sendmany`, `sendtoaddress`, `send` and + `walletcreatefundedpsbt` RPCs. (#11413) + +- The `bumpfee` RPC now uses `conf_target` rather than `confTarget` in the + options. (#11413) + +- `fundrawtransaction` and `walletcreatefundedpsbt` when used with the + `lockUnspents` argument now lock manually selected coins, in addition to + automatically selected coins. Note that locked coins are never used in + automatic coin selection, but can still be manually selected. (#18244) + +- The `-zapwallettxes` startup option has been removed and its functionality + removed from the wallet. This option was originally intended to allow for + rescuing wallets which were affected by a malleability attack. More recently, + it has been used in the fee bumping of transactions that did not signal RBF. + This functionality has been superseded with the abandon transaction feature. (#19671) + +- The error code when no wallet is loaded, but a wallet RPC is called, has been + changed from `-32601` (method not found) to `-18` (wallet not found). + (#20101) + +### Automatic wallet creation removed + +Bitcoin Core will no longer automatically create new wallets on startup. It will +load existing wallets specified by `-wallet` options on the command line or in +`bitcoin.conf` or `settings.json` files. And by default it will also load a +top-level unnamed ("") wallet. However, if specified wallets don't exist, +Bitcoin Core will now just log warnings instead of creating new wallets with +new keys and addresses like previous releases did. + +New wallets can be created through the GUI (which has a more prominent create +wallet option), through the `bitcoin-cli createwallet` or `bitcoin-wallet +create` commands, or the `createwallet` RPC. (#15454, #20186) + +### Experimental Descriptor Wallets + +Please note that Descriptor Wallets are still experimental and not all expected functionality +is available. Additionally there may be some bugs and current functions may change in the future. +Bugs and missing functionality can be reported to the [issue tracker](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues). + +0.21 introduces a new type of wallet - Descriptor Wallets. Descriptor Wallets store +scriptPubKey information using output descriptors. This is in contrast to the Legacy Wallet +structure where keys are used to implicitly generate scriptPubKeys and addresses. Because of this +shift to being script based instead of key based, many of the confusing things that Legacy +Wallets do are not possible with Descriptor Wallets. Descriptor Wallets use a definition +of "mine" for scripts which is simpler and more intuitive than that used by Legacy Wallets. +Descriptor Wallets also uses different semantics for watch-only things and imports. + +As Descriptor Wallets are a new type of wallet, their introduction does not affect existing wallets. +Users who already have a Bitcoin Core wallet can continue to use it as they did before without +any change in behavior. Newly created Legacy Wallets (which remains the default type of wallet) will +behave as they did in previous versions of Bitcoin Core. + +The differences between Descriptor Wallets and Legacy Wallets are largely limited to non user facing +things. They are intended to behave similarly except for the import/export and watchonly functionality +as described below. + +#### Creating Descriptor Wallets + +Descriptor wallets are not the default type of wallet. + +In the GUI, a checkbox has been added to the Create Wallet Dialog to indicate that a +Descriptor Wallet should be created. And a `descriptors` option has been added to `createwallet` RPC. +Setting `descriptors` to `true` will create a Descriptor Wallet instead of a Legacy Wallet. + +Without those options being set, a Legacy Wallet will be created instead. + +#### `IsMine` Semantics + +`IsMine` refers to the function used to determine whether a script belongs to the wallet. +This is used to determine whether an output belongs to the wallet. `IsMine` in Legacy Wallets +returns true if the wallet would be able to sign an input that spends an output with that script. +Since keys can be involved in a variety of different scripts, this definition for `IsMine` can +lead to many unexpected scripts being considered part of the wallet. + +With Descriptor Wallets, descriptors explicitly specify the set of scripts that are owned by +the wallet. Since descriptors are deterministic and easily enumerable, users will know exactly +what scripts the wallet will consider to belong to it. Additionally the implementation of `IsMine` +in Descriptor Wallets is far simpler than for Legacy Wallets. Notably, in Legacy Wallets, `IsMine` +allowed for users to take one type of address (e.g. P2PKH), mutate it into another address type +(e.g. P2WPKH), and the wallet would still detect outputs sending to the new address type +even without that address being requested from the wallet. Descriptor Wallets do not +allow for this and will only watch for the addresses that were explicitly requested from the wallet. + +These changes to `IsMine` will make it easier to reason about what scripts the wallet will +actually be watching for in outputs. However for the vast majority of users, this change is +largely transparent and will not have noticeable effect. + +#### Imports and Exports + +In Legacy Wallets, raw scripts and keys could be imported to the wallet. Those imported scripts +and keys are treated separately from the keys generated by the wallet. This complicates the `IsMine` +logic as it has to distinguish between spendable and watchonly. + +Descriptor Wallets handle importing scripts and keys differently. Only complete descriptors can be +imported. These descriptors are then added to the wallet as if it were a descriptor generated by +the wallet itself. This simplifies the `IsMine` logic so that it no longer has to distinguish +between spendable and watchonly. As such, the watchonly model for Descriptor Wallets is also +different and described in more detail in the next section. + +To import into a Descriptor Wallet, a new `importdescriptors` RPC has been added that uses a syntax +similar to that of `importmulti`. + +As Legacy Wallets and Descriptor Wallets use different mechanisms for storing and importing scripts and keys +the existing import RPCs have been disabled for descriptor wallets. +New export RPCs for Descriptor Wallets have not yet been added. + +The following RPCs are disabled for Descriptor Wallets: + +* `importprivkey` +* `importpubkey` +* `importaddress` +* `importwallet` +* `dumpprivkey` +* `dumpwallet` +* `importmulti` +* `addmultisigaddress` +* `sethdseed` + +#### Watchonly Wallets + +A Legacy Wallet contains both private keys and scripts that were being watched. +Those watched scripts would not contribute to your normal balance. In order to see the watchonly +balance and to use watchonly things in transactions, an `include_watchonly` option was added +to many RPCs that would allow users to do that. However it is easy to forget to include this option. + +Descriptor Wallets move to a per-wallet watchonly model. Instead an entire wallet is considered to be +watchonly depending on whether it was created with private keys disabled. This eliminates the need +to distinguish between things that are watchonly and things that are not within a wallet itself. + +This change does have a caveat. If a Descriptor Wallet with private keys *enabled* has +a multiple key descriptor without all of the private keys (e.g. `multi(...)` with only one private key), +then the wallet will fail to sign and broadcast transactions. Such wallets would need to use the PSBT +workflow but the typical GUI Send, `sendtoaddress`, etc. workflows would still be available, just +non-functional. + +This issue is worsened if the wallet contains both single key (e.g. `wpkh(...)`) descriptors and such +multiple key descriptors as some transactions could be signed and broadcast and others not. This is +due to some transactions containing only single key inputs, while others would contain both single +key and multiple key inputs, depending on which are available and how the coin selection algorithm +selects inputs. However this is not considered to be a supported use case; multisigs +should be in their own wallets which do not already have descriptors. Although users cannot export +descriptors with private keys for now as explained earlier. + +#### BIP 44/49/84 Support + +The change to using descriptors changes the default derivation paths used by Bitcoin Core +to adhere to BIP 44/49/84. Descriptors with different derivation paths can be imported without +issue. + +#### SQLite Database Backend + +Descriptor wallets use SQLite for the wallet file instead of the Berkeley DB used in legacy wallets. +This will break compatibility with any existing tooling that operates on wallets, however compatibility +was already being broken by the move to descriptors. + +### Wallet RPC changes + +- The `upgradewallet` RPC replaces the `-upgradewallet` command line option. + (#15761) + +- The `settxfee` RPC will fail if the fee was set higher than the `-maxtxfee` + command line setting. The wallet will already fail to create transactions + with fees higher than `-maxtxfee`. (#18467) + +- A new `fee_rate` parameter/option denominated in satoshis per vbyte (sat/vB) + is introduced to the `sendtoaddress`, `sendmany`, `fundrawtransaction` and + `walletcreatefundedpsbt` RPCs as well as to the experimental new `send` + RPC. The legacy `feeRate` option in `fundrawtransaction` and + `walletcreatefundedpsbt` still exists for setting a fee rate in BTC per 1,000 + vbytes (BTC/kvB), but it is expected to be deprecated soon to avoid + confusion. For these RPCs, the fee rate error message is updated from BTC/kB + to sat/vB and the help documentation in BTC/kB is updated to BTC/kvB. The + `send` and `sendtoaddress` RPC examples are updated to aid users in creating + transactions with explicit fee rates. (#20305, #11413) + +- The `bumpfee` RPC `fee_rate` option is changed from BTC/kvB to sat/vB and the + help documentation is updated. Users are warned that this is a breaking API + change, but it should be relatively benign: the large (100,000 times) + difference between BTC/kvB and sat/vB units means that a transaction with a + fee rate mistakenly calculated in BTC/kvB rather than sat/vB should raise an + error due to the fee rate being set too low. In the worst case, the + transaction may send at 1 sat/vB, but as Replace-by-Fee (BIP125 RBF) is active + by default when an explicit fee rate is used, the transaction fee can be + bumped. (#20305) + +GUI changes +----------- + +- Wallets created or loaded in the GUI will now be automatically loaded on + startup, so they don't need to be manually reloaded next time Bitcoin Core is + started. The list of wallets to load on startup is stored in + `\<datadir\>/settings.json` and augments any command line or `bitcoin.conf` + `-wallet=` settings that specify more wallets to load. Wallets that are + unloaded in the GUI get removed from the settings list so they won't load + again automatically next startup. (#19754) + +- The GUI Peers window no longer displays a "Ban Score" field. This is part of + changes in 0.20.1 and in this release to the handling of misbehaving + peers. Refer to "Changes regarding misbehaving peers" in the 0.20.1 release + notes for details. (#19512) + +Low-level changes +================= + +RPC +--- + +- To make RPC `sendtoaddress` more consistent with `sendmany` the following error + `sendtoaddress` codes were changed from `-4` to `-6`: + - Insufficient funds + - Fee estimation failed + - Transaction has too long of a mempool chain + +- The `sendrawtransaction` error code for exceeding `maxfeerate` has been changed from + `-26` to `-25`. The error string has been changed from "absurdly-high-fee" to + "Fee exceeds maximum configured by user (e.g. -maxtxfee, maxfeerate)." The + `testmempoolaccept` RPC returns `max-fee-exceeded` rather than `absurdly-high-fee` + as the `reject-reason`. (#19339) + +- To make wallet and rawtransaction RPCs more consistent, the error message for + exceeding maximum feerate has been changed to "Fee exceeds maximum configured by user + (e.g. -maxtxfee, maxfeerate)." (#19339) + +Tests +----- + +- The BIP 325 default signet can be enabled by the `-chain=signet` or `-signet` + setting. The settings `-signetchallenge` and `-signetseednode` allow + enabling a custom signet. + +- The `generateblock` RPC allows testers using regtest mode to + generate blocks that consist of a custom set of transactions.
