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, 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. + +Notable changes +=============== + +### Wallet + +- #28994 wallet: skip BnB when SFFO is enabled +- #28920 wallet: birth time update during tx scanning +- #29176 wallet: Fix use-after-free in WalletBatch::EraseRecords +- #29510 wallet: getrawchangeaddress and getnewaddress failures should not affect keypools for descriptor wallets + +### RPC + +- #29003 rpc: fix getrawtransaction segfault +- #28784 rpc: keep .cookie file if it was not generated + +### Logs + +- #29227 log mempool loading progress + +### P2P and network changes + +- #29200 net: create I2P sessions using both ECIES-X25519 and ElGamal encryption +- #29412 p2p: Don't process mutated blocks +- #29524 p2p: Don't consider blocks mutated if they don't connect to known prev block + +### Build + +- #29127 Use hardened runtime on macOS release builds. +- #29195 build: Fix -Xclang -internal-isystem option + +### CI + +- #28992 ci: Use Ubuntu 24.04 Noble for asan,tsan,tidy,fuzz +- #29080 ci: Set HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALLED_DEPENDENTS_CHECK to avoid unrelated failures +- #29610 ci: Fix "macOS native" job + +### Miscellaneous + +- #28391 refactor: Simplify CTxMempool/BlockAssembler fields, remove some external mapTx access +- #29179 test: wallet rescan with reorged parent + IsFromMe child in mempool +- #28791 snapshots: don't core dump when running -checkblockindex after loadtxoutset +- #29357 test: Drop x modifier in fsbridge::fopen call for MinGW builds +- #29529 fuzz: restrict fopencookie usage to Linux & FreeBSD + +Credits +======= + +Thanks to everyone who directly contributed to this release: + +- dergoegge +- fanquake +- furszy +- glozow +- Greg Sanders +- Hennadii Stepanov +- Jon Atack +- MarcoFalke +- Mark Friedenbach +- Martin Zumsande +- Murch +- Roman Zeyde +- stickies-v +- UdjinM6 + +As well as to everyone that helped with translations on +[Transifex](https://www.transifex.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/). + -- cgit v1.2.3
