For full details, see the RPC help text. In summary: + - The `bip9_softforks` sub-object is no longer returned + - The `softforks` sub-object now returns an object keyed by soft fork name, + rather than an array + - Each softfork object in the `softforks` object contains a `type` value which + is either `buried` (for soft fork deployments where the activation height is + hard-coded into the client implementation), or `bip9` (for soft fork deployments + where activation is controlled by BIP 9 signaling). + +- `getblocktemplate` no longer returns a `rules` array containing `CSV` + and `segwit` (the BIP 9 deployments that are currently in active state). -- cgit v1.2.3
