This does not apply when using the `private` parameter, which + matches the marker used when descriptor was generated or imported. Newly created + wallets use `h`. This change makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually. + E.g. an RPC call that takes an array of descriptors can now use '["desc": ".../0h/..."]'. + Either `h` or `'` can still be used when providing a descriptor to e.g. `getdescriptorinfo` + or `importdescriptors`. Note that this choice changes the descriptor checksum. + For legacy wallets the `hdkeypath` field in `getaddressinfo` is unchanged, + nor is the serialization format of wallet dumps. (#26076) |
