Downgrade warning
-----------------
-### Downgrade to a version < 0.10.0
-
-Because release 0.10.0 and later makes use of headers-first synchronization and
-parallel block download (see further), the block files and databases are not
-backwards-compatible with pre-0.10 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software:
-
-* Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are
-received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or
-other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work
-anymore as a result of this.
-
-* The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is
-stored on disk, which earlier versions won't support.
-
-If you want to be able to downgrade smoothly, make a backup of your entire data
-directory. Without this your node will need start syncing (or importing from
-bootstrap.dat) anew afterwards. It is possible that the data from a completely
-synchronised 0.10 node may be usable in older versions as-is, but this is not
-supported and may break as soon as the older version attempts to reindex.
-
-This does not affect wallet forward or backward compatibility.

Notable changes
===============
-Signature validation using libsecp256k1
----------------------------------------
-
-ECDSA signatures inside Bitcoin transactions now use validation using
-[https://github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1](libsecp256k1) instead of OpenSSL.
-
-Depending on the platform, this means a significant speedup for raw signature
-validation speed. The advantage is largest on x86_64, where validation is over
-five times faster. In practice, this translates to a raw reindexing and new
-block validation times that are less than half of what it was before.
-
-Libsecp256k1 has undergone very extensive testing and validation.
-
-A side effect of this change is that libconsensus no longer depends on OpenSSL.
-
-Reduce upload traffic
----------------------
-
-A major part of the outbound traffic is caused by serving historic blocks to
-other nodes in initial block download state.
-
-It is now possible to reduce the total upload traffic via the `-maxuploadtarget`
-parameter. This is *not* a hard limit but a threshold to minimize the outbound
-traffic. When the limit is about to be reached, the uploaded data is cut by not
-serving historic blocks (blocks older than one week).
-Moreover, any SPV peer is disconnected when they request a filtered block.
-
-This option can be specified in MiB per day and is turned off by default
-(`-maxuploadtarget=0`).
-The recommended minimum is 144 * MAX_BLOCK_SIZE (currently 144MB) per day.
-
-Whitelisted peers will never be disconnected, although their traffic counts for
-calculating the target.
-
-A more detailed documentation about keeping traffic low can be found in
-[/doc/reduce-traffic.md](/doc/reduce-traffic.md).
-
-Direct headers announcement (BIP 130)
--------------------------------------
-
-Between compatible peers, [BIP 130]
-(https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0130.mediawiki)
-direct headers announcement is used. This means that blocks are advertized by
-announcing their headers directly, instead of just announcing the hash. In a
-reorganization, all new headers are sent, instead of just the new tip. This
-can often prevent an extra roundtrip before the actual block is downloaded.
-
-With this change, pruning nodes are now able to relay new blocks to compatible
-peers.
-
-Memory pool limiting
---------------------
-
-Previous versions of Bitcoin Core had their mempool limited by checking
-a transaction's fees against the node's minimum relay fee. There was no
-upper bound on the size of the mempool and attackers could send a large
-number of transactions paying just slighly more than the default minimum
-relay fee to crash nodes with relatively low RAM. A temporary workaround
-for previous versions of Bitcoin Core was to raise the default minimum
-relay fee.
-
-Bitcoin Core 0.12 will have a strict maximum size on the mempool. The
-default value is 300 MB and can be configured with the `-maxmempool`
-parameter. Whenever a transaction would cause the mempool to exceed
-its maximum size, the transaction that (along with in-mempool descendants) has
-the lowest total feerate (as a package) will be evicted and the node's effective
-minimum relay feerate will be increased to match this feerate plus the initial
-minimum relay feerate. The initial minimum relay feerate is set to
-1000 satoshis per kB.
-
-Bitcoin Core 0.12 also introduces new default policy limits on the length and
-size of unconfirmed transaction chains that are allowed in the mempool
-(generally limiting the length of unconfirmed chains to 25 transactions, with a
-total size of 101 KB). These limits can be overriden using command line
-arguments; see the extended help (`--help -help-debug`) for more information.
-
-Opt-in Replace-by-fee transactions
-----------------------------------
-
-It is now possible to replace transactions in the transaction memory pool of
-Bitcoin Core 0.12 nodes. Bitcoin Core will only allow replacement of
-transactions which have any of their inputs' `nSequence` number set to less
-than `0xffffffff - 1`. Moreover, a replacement transaction may only be
-accepted when it pays sufficient fee, as described in [BIP 125]
-(https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0125.mediawiki).
-
-Transaction replacement can be disabled with a new command line option,
-`-mempoolreplacement=0`. Transactions signaling replacement under BIP125 will
-still be allowed into the mempool in this configuration, but replacements will
-be rejected. This option is intended for miners who want to continue the
-transaction selection behavior of previous releases.
-
-The `-mempoolreplacement` option is *not recommended* for wallet users seeking
-to avoid receipt of unconfirmed opt-in transactions, because this option does
-not prevent transactions which are replaceable under BIP 125 from being accepted
-(only subsequent replacements, which other nodes on the network that implement
-BIP 125 are likely to relay and mine). Wallet users wishing to detect whether
-a transaction is subject to replacement under BIP 125 should instead use the
-updated RPC calls `gettransaction` and `listtransactions`, which now have an
-additional field in the output indicating if a transaction is replaceable under
-BIP125 ("bip125-replaceable").
-
-Note that the wallet in Bitcoin Core 0.12 does not yet have support for
-creating transactions that would be replaceable under BIP 125.
-
-
-RPC: Random-cookie RPC authentication
--------------------------------------
-
-When no `-rpcpassword` is specified, the daemon now uses a special 'cookie'
-file for authentication. This file is generated with random content when the
-daemon starts, and deleted when it exits. Its contents are used as
-authentication token. Read access to this file controls who can access through
-RPC. By default it is stored in the data directory but its location can be
-overridden with the option `-rpccookiefile`.
-
-This is similar to Tor's CookieAuthentication: see
-https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en
-
-This allows running bitcoind without having to do any manual configuration.
-
-Relay: Any sequence of pushdatas in OP_RETURN outputs now allowed
------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Previously OP_RETURN outputs with a payload were only relayed and mined if they
-had a single pushdata. This restriction has been lifted to allow any
-combination of data pushes and numeric constant opcodes (OP_1 to OP_16) after
-the OP_RETURN. The limit on OP_RETURN output size is now applied to the entire
-serialized scriptPubKey, 83 bytes by default. (the previous 80 byte default plus
-three bytes overhead)
-
-Relay and Mining: Priority transactions
+Example item
---------------------------------------
-Bitcoin Core has a heuristic 'priority' based on coin value and age. This
-calculation is used for relaying of transactions which do not pay the
-minimum relay fee, and can be used as an alternative way of sorting
-transactions for mined blocks. Bitcoin Core will relay transactions with
-insufficient fees depending on the setting of `-limitfreerelay=<r>` (default:
-`r=15` kB per minute) and `-blockprioritysize=<s>`.
-
-In Bitcoin Core 0.12, when mempool limit has been reached a higher minimum
-relay fee takes effect to limit memory usage. Transactions which do not meet
-this higher effective minimum relay fee will not be relayed or mined even if
-they rank highly according to the priority heuristic.
-
-The mining of transactions based on their priority is also now disabled by
-default. To re-enable it, simply set `-blockprioritysize=<n>` where is the size
-in bytes of your blocks to reserve for these transactions. The old default was
-50k, so to retain approximately the same policy, you would set
-`-blockprioritysize=50000`.
-
-Additionally, as a result of computational simplifications, the priority value
-used for transactions received with unconfirmed inputs is lower than in prior
-versions due to avoiding recomputing the amounts as input transactions confirm.
-
-External miner policy set via the `prioritisetransaction` RPC to rank
-transactions already in the mempool continues to work as it has previously.
-Note, however, that if mining priority transactions is left disabled, the
-priority delta will be ignored and only the fee metric will be effective.
-
-This internal automatic prioritization handling is being considered for removal
-entirely in Bitcoin Core 0.13, and it is at this time undecided whether the
-more accurate priority calculation for chained unconfirmed transactions will be
-restored. Community direction on this topic is particularly requested to help
-set project priorities.
-
-Automatically use Tor hidden services
--------------------------------------
-
-Starting with Tor version 0.2.7.1 it is possible, through Tor's control socket
-API, to create and destroy 'ephemeral' hidden services programmatically.
-Bitcoin Core has been updated to make use of this.
-
-This means that if Tor is running (and proper authorization is available),
-Bitcoin Core automatically creates a hidden service to listen on, without
-manual configuration. Bitcoin Core will also use Tor automatically to connect
-to other .onion nodes if the control socket can be successfully opened. This
-will positively affect the number of available .onion nodes and their usage.
-
-This new feature is enabled by default if Bitcoin Core is listening, and
-a connection to Tor can be made. It can be configured with the `-listenonion`,
-`-torcontrol` and `-torpassword` settings. To show verbose debugging
-information, pass `-debug=tor`.
-
-Notifications through ZMQ
--------------------------
-
-Bitcoind can now (optionally) asynchronously notify clients through a
-ZMQ-based PUB socket of the arrival of new transactions and blocks.
-This feature requires installation of the ZMQ C API library 4.x and
-configuring its use through the command line or configuration file.
-Please see [docs/zmq.md](/doc/zmq.md) for details of operation.
-
-Wallet: Transaction fees
-------------------------
-
-Various improvements have been made to how the wallet calculates
-transaction fees.
-
-Users can decide to pay a predefined fee rate by setting `-paytxfee=<n>`
-(or `settxfee <n>` rpc during runtime). A value of `n=0` signals Bitcoin
-Core to use floating fees. By default, Bitcoin Core will use floating
-fees.
-
-Based on past transaction data, floating fees approximate the fees
-required to get into the `m`th block from now. This is configurable
-with `-txconfirmtarget=<m>` (default: `2`).
-
-Sometimes, it is not possible to give good estimates, or an estimate
-at all. Therefore, a fallback value can be set with `-fallbackfee=<f>`
-(default: `0.0002` BTC/kB).
-
-At all times, Bitcoin Core will cap fees at `-maxtxfee=<x>` (default:
-0.10) BTC.
-Furthermore, Bitcoin Core will never create transactions smaller than
-the current minimum relay fee.
-Finally, a user can set the minimum fee rate for all transactions with
-`-mintxfee=<i>`, which defaults to 1000 satoshis per kB.
-
-Wallet: Negative confirmations and conflict detection
------------------------------------------------------
-
-The wallet will now report a negative number for confirmations that indicates
-how deep in the block chain the conflict is found. For example, if a transaction
-A has 5 confirmations and spends the same input as a wallet transaction B, B
-will be reported as having -5 confirmations. If another wallet transaction C
-spends an output from B, it will also be reported as having -5 confirmations.
-To detect conflicts with historical transactions in the chain a one-time
-`-rescan` may be needed.
-
-Unlike earlier versions, unconfirmed but non-conflicting transactions will never
-get a negative confirmation count. They are not treated as spendable unless
-they're coming from ourself (change) and accepted into our local mempool,
-however. The new "trusted" field in the `listtransactions` RPC output
-indicates whether outputs of an unconfirmed transaction are considered
-spendable.
-
-Wallet: Merkle branches removed
--------------------------------
+Example text.
-Previously, every wallet transaction stored a Merkle branch to prove its
-presence in blocks. This wasn't being used for more than an expensive
-sanity check. Since 0.12, these are no longer stored. When loading a
-0.12 wallet into an older version, it will automatically rescan to avoid
-failed checks.
-
-Wallet: Pruning
----------------
-
-With 0.12 it is possible to use wallet functionality in pruned mode.
-This can reduce the disk usage from currently around 60 GB to
-around 2 GB.
-
-However, rescans as well as the RPCs `importwallet`, `importaddress`,
-`importprivkey` are disabled.
-
-To enable block pruning set `prune=<N>` on the command line or in
-`bitcoin.conf`, where `N` is the number of MiB to allot for
-raw block & undo data.
-
-A value of 0 disables pruning. The minimal value above 0 is 550. Your
-wallet is as secure with high values as it is with low ones. Higher
-values merely ensure that your node will not shut down upon blockchain
-reorganizations of more than 2 days - which are unlikely to happen in
-practice. In future releases, a higher value may also help the network
-as a whole: stored blocks could be served to other nodes.
-
-For further information about pruning, you may also consult the [release
-notes of v0.11.0](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/v0.11.0/doc/release-notes.md#block-file-pruning).
-
-`NODE_BLOOM` service bit
-------------------------
-
-Support for the `NODE_BLOOM` service bit, as described in [BIP
-111](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0111.mediawiki), has been
-added to the P2P protocol code.
-
-BIP 111 defines a service bit to allow peers to advertise that they support
-bloom filters (such as used by SPV clients) explicitly. It also bumps the protocol
-version to allow peers to identify old nodes which allow bloom filtering of the
-connection despite lacking the new service bit.
-
-In this version, it is only enforced for peers that send protocol versions
-`>=70011`. For the next major version it is planned that this restriction will be
-removed. It is recommended to update SPV clients to check for the `NODE_BLOOM`
-service bit for nodes that report versions newer than 70011.
-
-Option parsing behavior
------------------------
-
-Command line options are now parsed strictly in the order in which they are
-specified. It used to be the case that `-X -noX` ends up, unintuitively, with X
-set, as `-X` had precedence over `-noX`. This is no longer the case. Like for
-other software, the last specified value for an option will hold.
-
-RPC: Low-level API changes
---------------------------
-
-- Monetary amounts can be provided as strings. This means that for example the
- argument to sendtoaddress can be "0.0001" instead of 0.0001. This can be an
- advantage if a JSON library insists on using a lossy floating point type for
- numbers, which would be dangerous for monetary amounts.
-
-* The `asm` property of each scriptSig now contains the decoded signature hash
- type for each signature that provides a valid defined hash type.
-
-* OP_NOP2 has been renamed to OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY by [BIP 65](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0065.mediawiki)
-
-The following items contain assembly representations of scriptSig signatures
-and are affected by this change:
-
-- RPC `getrawtransaction`
-- RPC `decoderawtransaction`
-- RPC `decodescript`
-- REST `/rest/tx/` (JSON format)
-- REST `/rest/block/` (JSON format when including extended tx details)
-- `bitcoin-tx -json`
-
-For example, the `scriptSig.asm` property of a transaction input that
-previously showed an assembly representation of:
-
- 304502207fa7a6d1e0ee81132a269ad84e68d695483745cde8b541e3bf630749894e342a022100c1f7ab20e13e22fb95281a870f3dcf38d782e53023ee313d741ad0cfbc0c509001 400000 OP_NOP2
-
-now shows as:
-
- 304502207fa7a6d1e0ee81132a269ad84e68d695483745cde8b541e3bf630749894e342a022100c1f7ab20e13e22fb95281a870f3dcf38d782e53023ee313d741ad0cfbc0c5090[ALL] 400000 OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY
-
-Note that the output of the RPC `decodescript` did not change because it is
-configured specifically to process scriptPubKey and not scriptSig scripts.
-
-RPC: SSL support dropped
-------------------------
-
-SSL support for RPC, previously enabled by the option `rpcssl` has been dropped
-from both the client and the server. This was done in preparation for removing
-the dependency on OpenSSL for the daemon completely.
-
-Trying to use `rpcssl` will result in an error:
-
- Error: SSL mode for RPC (-rpcssl) is no longer supported.
-
-If you are one of the few people that relies on this feature, a flexible
-migration path is to use `stunnel`. This is an utility that can tunnel
-arbitrary TCP connections inside SSL. On e.g. Ubuntu it can be installed with:
-
- sudo apt-get install stunnel4
-
-Then, to tunnel a SSL connection on 28332 to a RPC server bound on localhost on port 18332 do:
-
- stunnel -d 28332 -r 127.0.0.1:18332 -p stunnel.pem -P ''
-
-It can also be set up system-wide in inetd style.
-
-Another way to re-attain SSL would be to setup a httpd reverse proxy. This solution
-would allow the use of different authentication, loadbalancing, on-the-fly compression and
-caching. A sample config for apache2 could look like:
-
- Listen 443
-
- NameVirtualHost *:443
- <VirtualHost *:443>
-
- SSLEngine On
- SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/server.crt
- SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/server.key
-
- <Location /bitcoinrpc>
- ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8332/
- ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:8332/
- # optional enable digest auth
- # AuthType Digest
- # ...
-
- # optional bypass bitcoind rpc basic auth
- # RequestHeader set Authorization "Basic <hash>"
- # get the <hash> from the shell with: base64 <<< bitcoinrpc:<password>
- </Location>
-
- # Or, balance the load:
- # ProxyPass / balancer://balancer_cluster_name
-
- </VirtualHost>
-
-Mining Code Changes
--------------------
-
-The mining code in 0.12 has been optimized to be significantly faster and use less
-memory. As part of these changes, consensus critical calculations are cached on a
-transaction's acceptance into the mempool and the mining code now relies on the
-consistency of the mempool to assemble blocks. However all blocks are still tested
-for validity after assembly.
-
-Other P2P Changes
------------------
-
-The list of banned peers is now stored on disk rather than in memory.
-Restarting bitcoind will no longer clear out the list of banned peers; instead
-a new RPC call (`clearbanned`) can be used to manually clear the list. The new
-`setban` RPC call can also be used to manually ban or unban a peer.
