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 Mac)
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 10.12+, 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.

From Bitcoin Core 0.20.0 onwards, macOS versions earlier than 10.12 are no
longer supported. Additionally, Bitcoin Core does not yet change appearance
when macOS "dark mode" is activated.

The node's known peers are persisted to disk in a file called `peers.dat`. The
format of this file has been changed in a backwards-incompatible way in order to
accommodate the storage of Tor v3 and other BIP155 addresses. This means that if
the file is modified by 0.21.0 or newer then older versions will not be able to
read it. Those old versions, in the event of a downgrade, will log an error
message "Incorrect keysize in addrman deserialization" and will continue normal
operation as if the file was missing, creating a new empty one. (#19954, #20284)

Notable changes
===============

P2P and network changes
-----------------------

- The mempool now tracks whether transactions submitted via the wallet or RPCs
  have been successfully broadcast. Every 10-15 minutes, the node will try to
  announce unbroadcast transactions until a peer requests it via a `getdata`
  message or the transaction is removed from the mempool for other reasons.
  The node will not track the broadcast status of transactions submitted to the
  node using P2P relay. This version reduces the initial broadcast guarantees
  for wallet transactions submitted via P2P to a node running the wallet. (#18038)

- The size of the set of transactions that peers have announced and we consider
  for requests has been reduced from 100000 to 5000 (per peer), and further
  announcements will be ignored when that limit is reached. If you need to dump
  (very) large batches of transactions, exceptions can be made for trusted
  peers using the "relay" network permission. For localhost for example it can
  be enabled using the command line option `-whitelist=relay@127.0.0.1`.
  (#19988)

- This release adds support for Tor version 3 hidden services, and rumoring them
  over the network to other peers using
  [BIP155](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0155.mediawiki).
  Version 2 hidden services are still fully supported by Bitcoin Core, but the
  Tor network will start
  [deprecating](https://blog.torproject.org/v2-deprecation-timeline) them in the
  coming months. (#19954)

- The Tor onion service that is automatically created by setting the
  `-listenonion` configuration parameter will now be created as a Tor v3 service
  instead of Tor v2. The private key that was used for Tor v2 (if any) will be
  left untouched in the `onion_private_key` file in the data directory (see
  `-datadir`) and can be removed if not needed. Bitcoin Core will no longer
  attempt to read it. The private key for the Tor v3 service will be saved in a
  file named `onion_v3_private_key`. To use the deprecated Tor v2 service (not
  recommended), the `onion_private_key` can be copied over
  `onion_v3_private_key`, e.g.
  `cp -f onion_private_key onion_v3_private_key`. (#19954)

- The client writes a file (`anchors.dat`) at shutdown with the network addresses
  of the node’s two outbound block-relay-only peers (so called "anchors"). The
  next time the node starts, it reads this file and attempts to reconnect to those
  same two peers. This prevents an attacker from using node restarts to trigger a
  complete change in peers, which would be something they could use as part of an
  eclipse attack. (#17428)

- This release adds support for serving
  [BIP157](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0157.mediawiki) compact
  filters to peers on the network when enabled using
  `-blockfilterindex=1 -peercfilters=1`. (#16442)

- This release adds support for signets
  ([BIP325](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0325.mediawiki)) in
  addition to the existing mainnet, testnet, and regtest networks. Signets are
  centrally-controlled test networks, allowing them to be more predictable
  test environments than the older testnet. One public signet is maintained, and
  selectable using `-signet`. It is also possible to create personal signets.
  (#18267).

- This release implements
  [BIP339](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0339.mediawiki)
  wtxid relay. When negotiated, transactions are announced using their wtxid
  instead of their txid. (#18044).

- This release implements the proposed Taproot consensus rules
  ([BIP341](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0341.mediawiki) and
  [BIP342](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0342.mediawiki)),
  without activation on mainnet. Experimentation with Taproot can be done on
  signet, where its rules are already active. (#19553)

Updated RPCs
------------

- The `getpeerinfo` RPC has a new `network` field that provides the type of
  network ("ipv4", "ipv6", or "onion") that the peer connected through. (#20002)

- The `getpeerinfo` RPC now has additional `last_block` and `last_transaction`
  fields that return the UNIX epoch time of the last block and the last *valid*
  transaction received from each peer. (#19731)

- `getnetworkinfo` now returns two new fields, `connections_in` and
  `connections_out`, that provide the number of inbound and outbound peer
  connections. These new fields are in addition to the existing `connections`
  field, which returns the total number of peer connections. (#19405)

- Exposed transaction version numbers are now treated as unsigned 32-bit
  integers instead of signed 32-bit integers. This matches their treatment in
  consensus logic. Versions greater than 2 continue to be non-standard
  (matching previous behavior of smaller than 1 or greater than 2 being
  non-standard). Note that this includes the `joinpsbt` command, which combines
  partially-signed transactions by selecting the highest version number.
  (#16525)

- `getmempoolinfo` now returns an additional `unbroadcastcount` field. The
  mempool tracks locally submitted transactions until their initial broadcast
  is acknowledged by a peer. This field returns the count of transactions
  waiting for acknowledgement.

- Mempool RPCs such as `getmempoolentry` and `getrawmempool` with
  `verbose=true` now return an additional `unbroadcast` field. This indicates
  whether initial broadcast of the transaction has been acknowledged by a
  peer. `getmempoolancestors` and `getmempooldescendants` are also updated.

- The `getpeerinfo` RPC no longer returns the `banscore` field unless the configuration
  option `-deprecatedrpc=banscore` is used. The `banscore` field will be fully
  removed in the next major release. (#19469)

- The `testmempoolaccept` RPC returns `vsize` and a `fees` object with the `base` fee
  if the transaction would pass validation. (#19940)

- The `getpeerinfo` RPC now returns a `connection_type` field. This indicates
  the type of connection established with the peer. It will return one of six
  options. For more information, see the `getpeerinfo` help documentation.
  (#19725)

- The `getpeerinfo` RPC no longer returns the `addnode` field by default. This
  field will be fully removed in the next major release.  It can be accessed
  with the configuration option `-deprecatedrpc=getpeerinfo_addnode`. However,
  it is recommended to instead use the `connection_type` field (it will return
  `manual` when addnode is true). (#19725)

- The `getpeerinfo` RPC no longer returns the `whitelisted` field by default. 
  This field will be fully removed in the next major release. It can be accessed 
  with the configuration option `-deprecatedrpc=getpeerinfo_whitelisted`. However, 
  it is recommended to instead use the `permissions` field to understand if specific 
  privileges have been granted to the peer. (#19770)

- The `walletcreatefundedpsbt` RPC call will now fail with
  `Insufficient funds` when inputs are manually selected but are not enough to cover
  the outputs and fee. Additional inputs can automatically be added through the
  new `add_inputs` option. (#16377)

- The `fundrawtransaction` RPC now supports `add_inputs` option that when `false`
  prevents adding more inputs if necessary and consequently the RPC fails.

Changes to Wallet or GUI related RPCs can be found in the GUI or Wallet section below.

New RPCs
--------

- The `getindexinfo` RPC returns the actively running indices of the node,
  including their current sync status and height. It also accepts an `index_name`
  to specify returning the status of that index only. (#19550)

Build System
------------

Updated settings
----------------

- The same ZeroMQ notification (e.g. `-zmqpubhashtx=address`) can now be
  specified multiple times to publish the same notification to different ZeroMQ
  sockets. (#18309)

- The `-banscore` configuration option, which modified the default threshold for
  disconnecting and discouraging misbehaving peers, has been removed as part of
  changes in 0.20.1 and in this release to the handling of misbehaving peers.
  Refer to "Changes regarding misbehaving peers" in the 0.20.1 release notes for
  details. (#19464)

- The `-debug=db` logging category, which was deprecated in 0.20 and replaced by
  `-debug=walletdb` to distinguish it from `coindb`, has been removed. (#19202)

- A `download` permission has been extracted from the `noban` permission. For
  compatibility, `noban` implies the `download` permission, but this may change
  in future releases. Refer to the help of the affected settings `-whitebind`
  and `-whitelist` for more details. (#19191)

- Netmasks that contain 1-bits after 0-bits (the 1-bits are not contiguous on
  the left side, e.g. 255.0.255.255) are no longer accepted. They are invalid
  according to RFC 4632. Netmasks are used in the `-rpcallowip` and `-whitelist`
  configuration options and in the `setban` RPC. (#19628)

- The `-blocksonly` setting now completely disables fee estimation. (#18766)

Changes to Wallet or GUI related settings can be found in the GUI or Wallet section below.

Tools and Utilities
-------------------

- A new `bitcoin-cli -netinfo` command provides a network peer connections
  dashboard that displays data from the `getpeerinfo` and `getnetworkinfo` RPCs
  in a human-readable format. An optional integer argument from `0` to `4` may
  be passed to see increasing levels of detail. (#19643)

- A new `bitcoin-cli -generate` command, equivalent to RPC `generatenewaddress`
  followed by `generatetoaddress`, can generate blocks for command line testing
  purposes. This is a client-side version of the former `generate` RPC. See the
  help for details. (#19133)

- The `bitcoin-cli -getinfo` command now displays the wallet name and balance for
  each of the loaded wallets when more than one is loaded (e.g. in multiwallet
  mode) and a wallet is not specified with `-rpcwallet`. (#18594)

- The `connections` field of `bitcoin-cli -getinfo` is now expanded to return a JSON
  object with `in`, `out` and `total` numbers of peer connections. It previously
  returned a single integer value for the total number of peer connections. (#19405)

New settings
------------

- The `startupnotify` option is used to specify a command to
  execute when Bitcoin Core has finished with its startup
  sequence. (#15367)

Wallet
------

- Backwards compatibility has been dropped for two `getaddressinfo` RPC
  deprecations, as notified in the 0.20 release notes. The deprecated `label`
  field has been removed as well as the deprecated `labels` behavior of
  returning a JSON object containing `name` and `purpose` key-value pairs. Since
  0.20, the `labels` field returns a JSON array of label names. (#19200)

- To improve wallet privacy, the frequency of wallet rebroadcast attempts is
  reduced from approximately once every 15 minutes to once every 12-36 hours.
  To maintain a similar level of guarantee for initial broadcast of wallet
  transactions, the mempool tracks these transactions as a part of the newly
  introduced unbroadcast set. See the "P2P and network changes" section for
  more information on the unbroadcast set. (#18038)

- The `sendtoaddress` and `sendmany` RPCs accept an optional `verbose=True`
  argument to also return the fee reason about the sent tx. (#19501)

- The wallet can create a transaction without change even when the keypool is
  empty. Previously it failed. (#17219)

- The `-salvagewallet` startup option has been removed. A new `salvage` command
  has been added to the `bitcoin-wallet` tool which performs the salvage
  operations that `-salvagewallet` did. (#18918)

- A new configuration flag `-maxapsfee` has been added, which sets the max
  allowed avoid partial spends (APS) fee. It defaults to 0 (i.e. fee is the
  same with and without APS). Setting it to -1 will disable APS, unless
  `-avoidpartialspends` is set. (#14582)

- The wallet will now avoid partial spends (APS) by default, if this does not
  result in a difference in fees compared to the non-APS variant. The allowed
  fee threshold can be adjusted using the new `-maxapsfee` configuration
  option. (#14582)

- The `createwallet`, `loadwallet`, and `unloadwallet` RPCs now accept
  `load_on_startup` options to modify the settings list. Unless these options
  are explicitly set to true or false, the list is not modified, so the RPC
  methods remain backwards compatible. (#15937)

- A new `send` RPC with similar syntax to `walletcreatefundedpsbt`, including
  support for coin selection and a custom fee rate, is added. The `send` RPC is
  experimental and may change in subsequent releases. (#16378)

- The `estimate_mode` parameter is now case-insensitive in the `bumpfee`,
  `fundrawtransaction`, `sendmany`, `sendtoaddress`, `send` and
  `walletcreatefundedpsbt` RPCs. (#11413)

- The `bumpfee` RPC now uses `conf_target` rather than `confTarget` in the
  options. (#11413)

- `fundrawtransaction` and `walletcreatefundedpsbt` when used with the
  `lockUnspents` argument now lock manually selected coins, in addition to
  automatically selected coins. Note that locked coins are never used in
  automatic coin selection, but can still be manually selected. (#18244)

- The `-zapwallettxes` startup option has been removed and its functionality
  removed from the wallet.  This option was originally intended to allow for
  rescuing wallets which were affected by a malleability attack. More recently,
  it has been used in the fee bumping of transactions that did not signal RBF.
  This functionality has been superseded with the abandon transaction feature. (#19671)

- The error code when no wallet is loaded, but a wallet RPC is called, has been
  changed from `-32601` (method not found) to `-18` (wallet not found).
  (#20101)

### Automatic wallet creation removed

Bitcoin Core will no longer automatically create new wallets on startup. It will
load existing wallets specified by `-wallet` options on the command line or in
`bitcoin.conf` or `settings.json` files. And by default it will also load a
top-level unnamed ("") wallet. However, if specified wallets don't exist,
Bitcoin Core will now just log warnings instead of creating new wallets with
new keys and addresses like previous releases did.

New wallets can be created through the GUI (which has a more prominent create
wallet option), through the `bitcoin-cli createwallet` or `bitcoin-wallet
create` commands, or the `createwallet` RPC. (#15454, #20186)

### Experimental Descriptor Wallets

Please note that Descriptor Wallets are still experimental and not all expected functionality
is available. Additionally there may be some bugs and current functions may change in the future.
Bugs and missing functionality can be reported to the [issue tracker](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues).

0.21 introduces a new type of wallet - Descriptor Wallets. Descriptor Wallets store
scriptPubKey information using output descriptors. This is in contrast to the Legacy Wallet
structure where keys are used to implicitly generate scriptPubKeys and addresses. Because of this
shift to being script based instead of key based, many of the confusing things that Legacy
Wallets do are not possible with Descriptor Wallets. Descriptor Wallets use a definition
of "mine" for scripts which is simpler and more intuitive than that used by Legacy Wallets.
Descriptor Wallets also uses different semantics for watch-only things and imports.

As Descriptor Wallets are a new type of wallet, their introduction does not affect existing wallets.
Users who already have a Bitcoin Core wallet can continue to use it as they did before without
any change in behavior. Newly created Legacy Wallets (which remains the default type of wallet) will
behave as they did in previous versions of Bitcoin Core.

The differences between Descriptor Wallets and Legacy Wallets are largely limited to non user facing
things. They are intended to behave similarly except for the import/export and watchonly functionality
as described below.

#### Creating Descriptor Wallets

Descriptor wallets are not the default type of wallet.

In the GUI, a checkbox has been added to the Create Wallet Dialog to indicate that a
Descriptor Wallet should be created. And a `descriptors` option has been added to `createwallet` RPC.
Setting `descriptors` to `true` will create a Descriptor Wallet instead of a Legacy Wallet.

Without those options being set, a Legacy Wallet will be created instead.

#### `IsMine` Semantics

`IsMine` refers to the function used to determine whether a script belongs to the wallet.
This is used to determine whether an output belongs to the wallet. `IsMine` in Legacy Wallets
returns true if the wallet would be able to sign an input that spends an output with that script.
Since keys can be involved in a variety of different scripts, this definition for `IsMine` can
lead to many unexpected scripts being considered part of the wallet.

With Descriptor Wallets, descriptors explicitly specify the set of scripts that are owned by
the wallet. Since descriptors are deterministic and easily enumerable, users will know exactly
what scripts the wallet will consider to belong to it. Additionally the implementation of `IsMine`
in Descriptor Wallets is far simpler than for Legacy Wallets. Notably, in Legacy Wallets, `IsMine`
allowed for users to take one type of address (e.g. P2PKH), mutate it into another address type
(e.g. P2WPKH), and the wallet would still detect outputs sending to the new address type
even without that address being requested from the wallet. Descriptor Wallets do not
allow for this and will only watch for the addresses that were explicitly requested from the wallet.

These changes to `IsMine` will make it easier to reason about what scripts the wallet will
actually be watching for in outputs. However for the vast majority of users, this change is
largely transparent and will not have noticeable effect.

#### Imports and Exports

In Legacy Wallets, raw scripts and keys could be imported to the wallet. Those imported scripts
and keys are treated separately from the keys generated by the wallet. This complicates the `IsMine`
logic as it has to distinguish between spendable and watchonly.

Descriptor Wallets handle importing scripts and keys differently. Only complete descriptors can be
imported. These descriptors are then added to the wallet as if it were a descriptor generated by
the wallet itself. This simplifies the `IsMine` logic so that it no longer has to distinguish
between spendable and watchonly. As such, the watchonly model for Descriptor Wallets is also
different and described in more detail in the next section.

To import into a Descriptor Wallet, a new `importdescriptors` RPC has been added that uses a syntax
similar to that of `importmulti`.

As Legacy Wallets and Descriptor Wallets use different mechanisms for storing and importing scripts and keys
the existing import RPCs have been disabled for descriptor wallets.
New export RPCs for Descriptor Wallets have not yet been added.

The following RPCs are disabled for Descriptor Wallets:

* `importprivkey`
* `importpubkey`
* `importaddress`
* `importwallet`
* `dumpprivkey`
* `dumpwallet`
* `importmulti`
* `addmultisigaddress`
* `sethdseed`

#### Watchonly Wallets

A Legacy Wallet contains both private keys and scripts that were being watched.
Those watched scripts would not contribute to your normal balance. In order to see the watchonly
balance and to use watchonly things in transactions, an `include_watchonly` option was added
to many RPCs that would allow users to do that. However it is easy to forget to include this option.

Descriptor Wallets move to a per-wallet watchonly model. Instead an entire wallet is considered to be
watchonly depending on whether it was created with private keys disabled. This eliminates the need
to distinguish between things that are watchonly and things that are not within a wallet itself.

This change does have a caveat. If a Descriptor Wallet with private keys *enabled* has
a multiple key descriptor without all of the private keys (e.g. `multi(...)` with only one private key),
then the wallet will fail to sign and broadcast transactions. Such wallets would need to use the PSBT
workflow but the typical GUI Send, `sendtoaddress`, etc. workflows would still be available, just
non-functional.

This issue is worsened if the wallet contains both single key (e.g. `wpkh(...)`) descriptors and such
multiple key descriptors as some transactions could be signed and broadcast and others not. This is
due to some transactions containing only single key inputs, while others would contain both single
key and multiple key inputs, depending on which are available and how the coin selection algorithm
selects inputs. However this is not considered to be a supported use case; multisigs
should be in their own wallets which do not already have descriptors. Although users cannot export
descriptors with private keys for now as explained earlier.

#### BIP 44/49/84 Support

The change to using descriptors changes the default derivation paths used by Bitcoin Core
to adhere to BIP 44/49/84. Descriptors with different derivation paths can be imported without
issue.

#### SQLite Database Backend

Descriptor wallets use SQLite for the wallet file instead of the Berkeley DB used in legacy wallets.
This will break compatibility with any existing tooling that operates on wallets, however compatibility
was already being broken by the move to descriptors.

### Wallet RPC changes

- The `upgradewallet` RPC replaces the `-upgradewallet` command line option.
  (#15761)

- The `settxfee` RPC will fail if the fee was set higher than the `-maxtxfee`
  command line setting. The wallet will already fail to create transactions
  with fees higher than `-maxtxfee`. (#18467)

- A new `fee_rate` parameter/option denominated in satoshis per vbyte (sat/vB)
  is introduced to the `sendtoaddress`, `sendmany`, `fundrawtransaction` and
  `walletcreatefundedpsbt` RPCs as well as to the experimental new `send`
  RPC. The legacy `feeRate` option in `fundrawtransaction` and
  `walletcreatefundedpsbt` still exists for setting a fee rate in BTC per 1,000
  vbytes (BTC/kvB), but it is expected to be deprecated soon to avoid
  confusion. For these RPCs, the fee rate error message is updated from BTC/kB
  to sat/vB and the help documentation in BTC/kB is updated to BTC/kvB. The
  `send` and `sendtoaddress` RPC examples are updated to aid users in creating
  transactions with explicit fee rates. (#20305, #11413)

- The `bumpfee` RPC `fee_rate` option is changed from BTC/kvB to sat/vB and the
  help documentation is updated. Users are warned that this is a breaking API
  change, but it should be relatively benign: the large (100,000 times)
  difference between BTC/kvB and sat/vB units means that a transaction with a
  fee rate mistakenly calculated in BTC/kvB rather than sat/vB should raise an
  error due to the fee rate being set too low. In the worst case, the
  transaction may send at 1 sat/vB, but as Replace-by-Fee (BIP125 RBF) is active
  by default when an explicit fee rate is used, the transaction fee can be
  bumped. (#20305)

GUI changes
-----------

- Wallets created or loaded in the GUI will now be automatically loaded on
  startup, so they don't need to be manually reloaded next time Bitcoin Core is
  started. The list of wallets to load on startup is stored in
  `\<datadir\>/settings.json` and augments any command line or `bitcoin.conf`
  `-wallet=` settings that specify more wallets to load. Wallets that are
  unloaded in the GUI get removed from the settings list so they won't load
  again automatically next startup. (#19754)

- The GUI Peers window no longer displays a "Ban Score" field. This is part of
  changes in 0.20.1 and in this release to the handling of misbehaving
  peers. Refer to "Changes regarding misbehaving peers" in the 0.20.1 release
  notes for details. (#19512)

Low-level changes
=================

RPC
---

- To make RPC `sendtoaddress` more consistent with `sendmany` the following error
    `sendtoaddress` codes were changed from `-4` to `-6`:
  - Insufficient funds
  - Fee estimation failed
  - Transaction has too long of a mempool chain

- The `sendrawtransaction` error code for exceeding `maxfeerate` has been changed from
  `-26` to `-25`. The error string has been changed from "absurdly-high-fee" to
  "Fee exceeds maximum configured by user (e.g. -maxtxfee, maxfeerate)." The
  `testmempoolaccept` RPC returns `max-fee-exceeded` rather than `absurdly-high-fee`
  as the `reject-reason`. (#19339)

- To make wallet and rawtransaction RPCs more consistent, the error message for
  exceeding maximum feerate has been changed to "Fee exceeds maximum configured by user
  (e.g. -maxtxfee, maxfeerate)." (#19339)

Tests
-----

- The BIP 325 default signet can be enabled by the `-chain=signet` or `-signet`
  setting. The settings `-signetchallenge` and `-signetseednode` allow
  enabling a custom signet.

- The `generateblock` RPC allows testers using regtest mode to
  generate blocks that consist of a custom set of transactions. (#17693)
