Wait until it has completely -shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the -installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or -bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux). - -Downgrade warning ------------------- - -Because release 0.10.0 and later makes use of headers-first synchronization and -parallel block download (see further), the block files and databases are not -backwards-compatible with pre-0.10 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software: - -* Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are -received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or -other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work -anymore as a result of this. - -* The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is -stored on disk, which earlier versions won't support. - -If you want to be able to downgrade smoothly, make a backup of your entire data -directory. Without this your node will need start syncing (or importing from -bootstrap.dat) anew afterwards. It is possible that the data from a completely -synchronised 0.10 node may be usable in older versions as-is, but this is not -supported and may break as soon as the older version attempts to reindex. - -This does not affect wallet forward or backward compatibility. There are no -known problems when downgrading from 0.11.x to 0.10.x. - -Important information -====================== - -Transaction flooding ---------------------- - -At the time of this release, the P2P network is being flooded with low-fee -transactions. This causes a ballooning of the mempool size. - -If this growth of the mempool causes problematic memory use on your node, it is -possible to change a few configuration options to work around this. The growth -of the mempool can be monitored with the RPC command `getmempoolinfo`. - -One is to increase the minimum transaction relay fee `minrelaytxfee`, which -defaults to 0.00001. This will cause transactions with fewer BTC/kB fee to be -rejected, and thus fewer transactions entering the mempool. - -The other is to restrict the relaying of free transactions with -`limitfreerelay`. This option sets the number of kB/minute at which -free transactions (with enough priority) will be accepted. It defaults to 15. -Reducing this number reduces the speed at which the mempool can grow due -to free transactions. - -For example, add the following to `bitcoin.conf`: - - minrelaytxfee=0.00005 - limitfreerelay=5 - -More robust solutions are being worked on for a follow-up release. - -Notable changes -=============== - -Block file pruning ----------------------- - -This release supports running a fully validating node without maintaining a copy -of the raw block and undo data on disk. To recap, there are four types of data -related to the blockchain in the bitcoin system: the raw blocks as received over -the network (blk???.dat), the undo data (rev???.dat), the block index and the -UTXO set (both LevelDB databases). The databases are built from the raw data. - -Block pruning allows Bitcoin Core to delete the raw block and undo data once -it's been validated and used to build the databases. At that point, the raw data -is used only to relay blocks to other nodes, to handle reorganizations, to look -up old transactions (if -txindex is enabled or via the RPC/REST interfaces), or -for rescanning the wallet. The block index continues to hold the metadata about -all blocks in the blockchain. - -The user specifies how much space to allot for block & undo files. The minimum -allowed is 550MB. Note that this is in addition to whatever is required for the -block index and UTXO databases. The minimum was chosen so that Bitcoin Core will -be able to maintain at least 288 blocks on disk (two days worth of blocks at 10 -minutes per block). In rare instances it is possible that the amount of space -used will exceed the pruning target in order to keep the required last 288 -blocks on disk. - -Block pruning works during initial sync in the same way as during steady state, -by deleting block files "as you go" whenever disk space is allocated. Thus, if -the user specifies 550MB, once that level is reached the program will begin -deleting the oldest block and undo files, while continuing to download the -blockchain. - -For now, block pruning disables block relay. In the future, nodes with block -pruning will at a minimum relay "new" blocks, meaning blocks that extend their -active chain. - -Block pruning is currently incompatible with running a wallet due to the fact -that block data is used for rescanning the wallet and importing keys or -addresses (which require a rescan.) However, running the wallet with block -pruning will be supported in the near future, subject to those limitations. - -Block pruning is also incompatible with -txindex and will automatically disable -it. - -Once you have pruned blocks, going back to unpruned state requires -re-downloading the entire blockchain. To do this, re-start the node with --reindex. Note also that any problem that would cause a user to reindex (e.g., -disk corruption) will cause a pruned node to redownload the entire blockchain. -Finally, note that when a pruned node reindexes, it will delete any blk???.dat -and rev???.dat files in the data directory prior to restarting the download. - -To enable block pruning on the command line: - -- `-prune=N`: where N is the number of MB to allot for raw block & undo data. - -Modified RPC calls: - -- `getblockchaininfo` now includes whether we are in pruned mode or not. -- `getblock` will check if the block's data has been pruned and if so, return an -error. -- `getrawtransaction` will no longer be able to locate a transaction that has a -UTXO but where its block file has been pruned. - -Pruning is disabled by default. - -Big endian support --------------------- - -Experimental support for big-endian CPU architectures was added in this -release. All little-endian specific code was replaced with endian-neutral -constructs. This has been tested on at least MIPS and PPC hosts. The build -system will automatically detect the endianness of the target. - -Memory usage optimization --------------------------- - -There have been many changes in this release to reduce the default memory usage -of a node, among which: - -- Accurate UTXO cache size accounting (#6102); this makes the option `-dbcache` - precise where this grossly underestimated memory usage before -- Reduce size of per-peer data structure (#6064 and others); this increases the - number of connections that can be supported with the same amount of memory -- Reduce the number of threads (#5964, #5679); lowers the amount of (esp. - virtual) memory needed - -Fee estimation changes ----------------------- - -This release improves the algorithm used for fee estimation. Previously, -1 -was returned when there was insufficient data to give an estimate. Now, -1 -will also be returned when there is no fee or priority high enough for the -desired confirmation target. In those cases, it can help to ask for an estimate -for a higher target number of blocks. It is not uncommon for there to be no -fee or priority high enough to be reliably (85%) included in the next block and -for this reason, the default for `-txconfirmtarget=n` has changed from 1 to 2. - -Privacy: Disable wallet transaction broadcast ----------------------------------------------- - -This release adds an option `-walletbroadcast=0` to prevent automatic -transaction broadcast and rebroadcast (#5951). This option allows separating -transaction submission from the node functionality. - -Making use of this, third-party scripts can be written to take care of -transaction (re)broadcast: - -- Send the transaction as normal, either through RPC or the GUI -- Retrieve the transaction data through RPC using `gettransaction` (NOT - `getrawtransaction`). The `hex` field of the result will contain the raw - hexadecimal representation of the transaction -- The transaction can then be broadcasted through arbitrary mechanisms - supported by the script - -One such application is selective Tor usage, where the node runs on the normal -internet but transactions are broadcasted over Tor. - -For an example script see [bitcoin-submittx](https://github.com/laanwj/bitcoin-submittx). - -Privacy: Stream isolation for Tor ----------------------------------- - -This release adds functionality to create a new circuit for every peer -connection, when the software is used with Tor. The new option, -`-proxyrandomize`, is on by default. - -When enabled, every outgoing connection will (potentially) go through a -different exit node. That significantly reduces the chance to get unlucky and -pick a single exit node that is either malicious, or widely banned from the P2P -network. This improves connection reliability as well as privacy, especially -for the initial connections. - -**Important note:** If a non-Tor SOCKS5 proxy is configured that supports -authentication, but doesn't require it, this change may cause that proxy to reject -connections. A user and password is sent where they weren't before. This setup -is exceedingly rare, but in this case `-proxyrandomize=0` can be passed to -disable the behavior. - -0.11.0 Change log -================= - -Detailed release notes follow. This overview includes changes that affect -behavior, not code moves, refactors and string updates. For convenience in locating -the code changes and accompanying discussion, both the pull request and -git merge commit are mentioned. - -### RPC and REST - -- #5461 `5f7279a` signrawtransaction: validate private key -- #5444 `103f66b` Add `/rest/headers//.` -- #4964 `95ecc0a` Add scriptPubKey field to validateaddress RPC call -- #5476 `c986972` Add time offset into getpeerinfo output -- #5540 `84eba47` Add unconfirmed and immature balances to getwalletinfo -- #5599 `40e96a3` Get rid of the internal miner's hashmeter -- #5711 `87ecfb0` Push down RPC locks -- #5754 `1c4e3f9` fix getblocktemplate lock issue -- #5756 `5d901d8` Fix getblocktemplate_proposals test by mining one block -- #5548 `d48ce48` Add /rest/chaininfos -- #5992 `4c4f1b4` Push down RPC reqWallet flag -- #6036 `585b5db` Show zero value txouts in listunspent -- #5199 `6364408` Add RPC call `gettxoutproof` to generate and verify merkle blocks -- #5418 `16341cc` Report missing inputs in sendrawtransaction -- #5937 `40f5e8d` show script verification errors in signrawtransaction result -- #5420 `1fd2d39` getutxos REST command (based on Bip64) -- #6193 `42746b0` [REST] remove json input for getutxos, limit to query max. 15 outpoints -- #6226 `5901596` json: fail read_string if string contains trailing garbage -

This may result in a lower -number of reachable nodes on IPv4, however this prevents future libupnpc -vulnerabilities from being a structural risk to the network -(see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6795). - -Test for LowS signatures before relaying ------------------------------------------ - -Make the node require the canonical 'low-s' encoding for ECDSA signatures when -relaying or mining. This removes a nuisance malleability vector. - -Consensus behavior is unchanged. - -If widely deployed this change would eliminate the last remaining known vector -for nuisance malleability on SIGHASH_ALL P2PKH transactions. On the down-side -it will block most transactions made by sufficiently out of date software. - -Unlike the other avenues to change txids on transactions this -one was randomly violated by all deployed bitcoin software prior to -its discovery. So, while other malleability vectors where made -non-standard as soon as they were discovered, this one has remained -permitted. Even BIP62 did not propose applying this rule to -old version transactions, but conforming implementations have become -much more common since BIP62 was initially written. - -Bitcoin Core has produced compatible signatures since a28fb70e in -September 2013, but this didn't make it into a release until 0.9 -in March 2014; Bitcoinj has done so for a similar span of time. -Bitcoinjs and electrum have been more recently updated. - -This does not replace the need for BIP62 or similar, as miners can -still cooperate to break transactions.

Current consensus rules require -that blocks have a block header time greater than the locktime specified -in any transaction in that block. - -Miners get to choose what time they use for their header time, with the -consensus rule being that no node will accept a block whose time is more -than two hours in the future. This creates a incentive for miners to -set their header times to future values in order to include locktimed -transactions which weren't supposed to be included for up to two more -hours. - -The consensus rules also specify that valid blocks may have a header -time greater than that of the median of the 11 previous blocks. This -GetMedianTimePast() time has a key feature we generally associate with -time: it can't go backwards. - -[BIP113][] specifies a soft fork (**not enforced in this release**) that -weakens this perverse incentive for individual miners to use a future -time by requiring that valid blocks have a computed GetMedianTimePast() -greater than the locktime specified in any transaction in that block. - -Mempool inclusion rules currently require transactions to be valid for -immediate inclusion in a block in order to be accepted into the mempool. -This release begins applying the BIP113 rule to received transactions, -so transaction whose time is greater than the GetMedianTimePast() will -no longer be accepted into the mempool. - -**Implication for miners:** you will begin rejecting transactions that -would not be valid under BIP113, which will prevent you from producing -invalid blocks if/when BIP113 is enforced on the network. Any -transactions which are valid under the current rules but not yet valid -under the BIP113 rules will either be mined by other miners or delayed -until they are valid under BIP113. Note, however, that time-based -locktime transactions are more or less unseen on the network currently. - -**Implication for users:** GetMedianTimePast() always trails behind the -current time, so a transaction locktime set to the present time will be -rejected by nodes running this release until the median time moves -forward. To compensate, subtract one hour (3,600 seconds) from your -locktimes to allow those transactions to be included in mempools at -approximately the expected time. - -[BIP113]: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0113.mediawiki - -Windows bug fix for corrupted UTXO database on unclean shutdowns ----------------------------------------------------------------- - -Several Windows users reported that they often need to reindex the -entire blockchain after an unclean shutdown of Bitcoin Core on Windows -(or an unclean shutdown of Windows itself). Although unclean shutdowns -remain unsafe, this release no longer relies on memory-mapped files for -the UTXO database, which significantly reduced the frequency of unclean -shutdowns leading to required reindexes during testing. - -For more information, see: - -Other fixes for database corruption on Windows are expected in the -next major release. - -0.11.2 Change log -================= - -Detailed release notes follow.
