+Updated RPCs
+------------
+
+* The -maxtxfee setting no longer has any effect on non-wallet RPCs.
+
+ The `sendrawtransaction` and `testmempoolaccept` RPC methods previously
+ accepted an `allowhighfees` parameter to fail the mempool acceptance in case
+ the transaction's fee would exceed the value of the command line argument
+ `-maxtxfee`. To uncouple the RPCs from the global option, they now have a
+ hardcoded default for the maximum transaction fee, that can be changed for
+ both RPCs on a per-call basis with the `maxfeerate` parameter. The
+ `allowhighfees` boolean option has been removed and replaced by the
+ `maxfeerate` numeric option.
