+blocks. This allows the pruneblockchain RPC to be called to
+delete specific blocks and enables automatic pruning of old
+blocks if a target size in MiB is provided. This mode is
+incompatible with \fB\-txindex\fR. Warning: Reverting this setting

+Relative paths will be prefixed by datadir location. (default:
+settings.json)
+.HP
+\fB\-shutdownnotify=\fR<cmd>
+.IP
+Execute command immediately before beginning shutdown. The need for
+shutdown may be urgent, so be careful not to delay it long (if
+the command doesn't require interaction with the server, consider

+and transactions), noban (do not ban for misbehavior; implies
+download), forcerelay (relay transactions that are already in the
+mempool; implies relay), relay (relay even in \fB\-blocksonly\fR mode,
+and unlimited transaction announcements), mempool (allow
+requesting BIP35 mempool contents), download (allow getheaders

+.HP
+\fB\-avoidpartialspends\fR
+.IP
+Group outputs by address, selecting many (possibly all) or none, instead
+of selecting on a per\-output basis. Privacy is improved as
+addresses are mostly swept with fewer transactions and outputs
+are aggregated in clean change addresses. It may result in higher
+fees due to less optimal coin selection caused by this added
+limitation and possibly a larger\-than\-necessary number of inputs
+being used. Always enabled for wallets with "avoid_reuse"
+enabled, otherwise default: 0.
+.HP
+\fB\-changetype\fR
+.IP
+What type of change to use ("legacy", "p2sh\-segwit", "bech32", or

+is an implementation detail.
+.HP
+\fB\-consolidatefeerate=\fR<amt>
+.IP
+The maximum feerate (in BTC/kvB) at which transaction building may use
+more inputs than strictly necessary so that the wallet's UTXO
+pool can be reduced (default: 0.0001).
+.HP
+\fB\-disablewallet\fR
+.IP
+Do not load the wallet and disable wallet RPC calls
+.HP
+\fB\-discardfee=\fR<amt>
+.IP
+The fee rate (in BTC/kvB) that indicates your tolerance for discarding
+change by adding it to the fee (default: 0.0001). Note: An output
+is discarded if it is dust at this rate, but we will always
+discard up to the dust relay fee and a discard fee above that is
+limited by the fee estimate for the longest target
+.HP

+\fB\-walletbroadcast\fR
+.IP
+Make the wallet broadcast transactions (default: 1)

+.HP
+\fB\-rpcbind=\fR<addr>[:port]

+Bind to given address to listen for JSON\-RPC connections. Do not expose
+the RPC server to untrusted networks such as the public internet!
+This option is ignored unless \fB\-rpcallowip\fR is also passed. Port is
+optional and overrides \fB\-rpcport\fR. Use [host]:port notation for

+Password for JSON\-RPC connections
+.HP
+\fB\-rpcport=\fR<port>

+.IP
+Sets default behavior for rpc whitelisting. Unless rpcwhitelistdefault
+is set to 0, if any \fB\-rpcwhitelist\fR is set, the rpc server acts as

-*version* Release Notes Draft
-===============================
-
-Bitcoin Core version *version* is now available from:
-
-  <https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-*version*/>
-
-This release includes new features, various bug fixes and performance
-improvements, as well as updated translations.
-
-Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub:
-
-  <https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues>
-
-To receive security and update notifications, please subscribe to:
-
-  <https://bitcoincore.org/en/list/announcements/join/>
-
-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 macOS)
-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 3.17+, macOS 11.0+, 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.
