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.

Known Bugs

The process for generating the source code release ("tarball") has changed in an effort to make it more complete, however, there are a few regressions in this release:

• The generated configure script is currently missing, and you will need to install autotools and run ./autogen.sh before you can run./configure. This is the same as when checking out from git.
• Instead of running make simply, you should instead run BITCOIN_GENBUILD_NO_GIT=1 make.

Notable changes

P2P and network changes

Removal of BIP61 reject network messages from Bitcoin Core

The -enablebip61 command line option to enable BIP61 has been removed.(#17004 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17004))

This feature has been disabled by default since Bitcoin Core version 0.18.0. Nodes on the network can not generally be trusted to send valid messages (including reject messages), so this should only ever be used when connected to a trusted node.
Please use the alternatives recommended below if you rely on this removed feature:

• Testing or debugging of implementations of the Bitcoin P2P network protocol should be done by inspecting the log messages that are produced by a recent version of Bitcoin Core. Bitcoin Core logs debug messages (-debug=<category>) to a stream (-printtoconsole) or to a file (-debuglogfile=<debug.log>).
• Testing the validity of a block can be achieved by specific RPCs:
  
  • submitblock
  • getblocktemplate with 'mode' set to 'proposal' for blocks with potentially invalid POW

• Testing the validity of a transaction can be achieved by specific RPCs:
  • sendrawtransaction
  • testmempoolaccept

• Wallets should not assume a transaction has propagated to the network just because there are no reject messages. Instead, listen for the transaction to be announced by other peers on the network.
  Wallets should not assume a lack of reject messages means a transaction pays an appropriate fee. Instead, set fees using fee estimation and use replace-by-fee to increase a transaction's fee if it hasn't confirmed within the desired amount of time.

The removal of BIP61 reject message support also has the following minor RPC and logging implications:

• testmempoolaccept and sendrawtransaction no longer return the P2P reject code when a transaction is not accepted to the mempool. They still return the verbal reject reason.
• Log messages that previously reported the reject code when a transaction was not accepted to the mempool now no longer report the reject code. The reason for rejection is still reported.

Updated RPCs

• The RPCs which accept descriptors now accept the new sortedmulti(...) descriptor type which supports multisig scripts where the public keys are sorted lexicographically in the resulting script. (#17056 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17056))
• The walletprocesspsbt and walletcreatefundedpsbt RPCs now include BIP32 derivation paths by default for public keys if we know them. This can be disabled by setting the bip32derivs parameter tofalse. (#17264 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17264))
• The bumpfee RPC's parameter totalFee, which was deprecated in 0.19, has been removed.(#18312 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18312))
• The bumpfee RPC will return a PSBT when used with wallets that have private keys disabled.(#16373 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16373))
• The getpeerinfo RPC now includes a mapped_as field to indicate the mapped Autonomous System used for diversifying peer selection. See the -asmap configuration option described below in New Settings.(#1702 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16702))
• The createmultisig and addmultisigaddress RPCs now return an output script descriptor for the newly created address.(#18032 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18032))

Build System

• OpenSSL is no longer used by Bitcoin Core. (#17265 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17265))
• BIP70 support has been fully removed from Bitcoin Core. The enable-bip70 option remains, but it will throw an error during configure. (#17165 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17165))
• glibc 2.17 or greater is now required to run the release binaries. This retains compatibility with RHEL 7, CentOS 7, Debian 8 and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (#17538 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17538))
• The source code archives that are provided with gitian builds no longer contain any autotools artifacts. Therefore, to build from such source, a user should run the ./autogen.sh script from the root of the unpacked archive. This implies that autotools and other required packages are installed on the user's system. (#18331 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18331))

New settings

• New rpcwhitelist and rpcwhitelistdefault configuration parameters allow giving certain RPC users permissions to only some RPC calls.(#12763 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12763))
• A new -asmap configuration option has been added to diversify the node's network connections by mapping IP addresses Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) and then limiting the number of connections made to any single ASN. See issue #16599 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16599),PR #16702 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16702)), and thebitcoind help for more information. This option is experimental and subject to removal or breaking changes in future releases, so the legacy /16 prefix mapping of IP addresses remains the default. #16702 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16702)

Updated settings

• All custom settings configured when Bitcoin Core starts are now written to the debug.log file to assist troubleshooting.(#16115 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16115))
• Importing blocks upon startup via the bootstrap.dat file no longer occurs by default. The file must now be specified with -loadblock=<file>.(#17044 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17044))
• The -debug=db logging category has been renamed to-debug=walletdb to distinguish it from coindb. The -debug=dboption has been deprecated and will be removed in the next major release.(#17410 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17410))
• The -walletnotify configuration parameter will now replace any %win its argument with the name of the wallet generating the notification. This is not supported on Windows.(#13339 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13339))

Removed settings

• The -whitelistforcerelay configuration parameter has been removed after it was discovered that it was rendered ineffective in version 0.13 and hasn't actually been supported for almost four years.(#17985 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17985))

GUI changes

• The "Start Bitcoin Core on system login" option has been removed on macOS.(#17567 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17567))
• In the Peers window, the details for a peer now displays a Mapped AS field to indicate the mapped Autonomous System used for diversifying peer selection. See the -asmap configuration option in New Settings, above.(#18402 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18402))
• A "known bug" announced  (https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/0.18.0/#wallet-gui)in the release notes of version 0.18 has been fixed. The issue affected anyone who simultaneously used multiple Bitcoin Core wallets and the GUI coin control feature.(#18894 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18894))
• For watch-only wallets, creating a new transaction in the Send screen or fee bumping an existing transaction in the Transactions screen will automatically copy a Partially-Signed Bitcoin Transaction (PSBT) to the system clipboard. This can then be pasted into an external program such as HWI (https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI) for signing. Future versions of Bitcoin Core should support a GUI option for finalizing and broadcasting PSBTs, but for now the debug console may be used with the finalizepsbt and sendrawtransaction RPCs. (#16944 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16944), #17492 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17492))

Wallet

• The wallet now by default uses bech32 addresses when using RPC, and creates native segwit change outputs.(#16884 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16884))
• The way that output trust was computed has been fixed, which affects confirmed/unconfirmed balance status and coin selection.(#16766 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16766))
• The gettransaction, listtransactions and listsinceblock RPC responses now also include the height of the block that contains the wallet transaction, if any.(#17437 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17437))
• The getaddressinfo RPC has had its label field deprecated (re-enable for this release using the configuration parameter -deprecatedrpc=label). The labels field is altered from returning JSON objects to returning a JSON array of label names (re-enable previous behavior for this release using the configuration parameter -deprecatedrpc=labelspurpose). Backwards compatibility using the deprecated configuration parameters is expected to be dropped in the 0.21 release.(#17585 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17585), #17578 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17578))

Documentation changes

• Bitcoin Core's automatically-generated source code documentation is now available at https://doxygen.bitcoincore.org.(#17596 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17596))

Low-level changes

Utilities

• The bitcoin-cli utility used with the -getinfo parameter now returns a headers field with the number of downloaded block headers on the best headers chain (similar to the blocks field that is also returned) and a verificationprogress field that estimates how much of the best block chain has been synced by the local node. The information returned no longer includes the protocolversion, walletversion, and keypoololdest fields.(#17302 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17302), #17650 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17650))
• The bitcoin-cli utility now accepts a -stdinwalletpassphrase parameter that can be used when calling the walletpassphrase and walletpassphrasechange RPCs to read the passphrase from standard input without echoing it to the terminal, improving security against anyone who can look at your screen. The existing -stdinrpcpass parameter is also updated to not echo the passphrase.(#13716 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13716)

Command line

• Command line options prefixed with main/test/regtest network names like -main.port=8333 -test.server=1 previously were allowed but ignored. Now they trigger "Invalid parameter" errors on startup.(#17482 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17482))

New RPCs

• The dumptxoutset RPC outputs a serialized snapshot of the current UTXO set. A script is provided in the contrib/devtools directory for generating a snapshot of the UTXO set at a particular block height.(#16899 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16899))
• The generatetodescriptor RPC allows testers using regtest mode to generate blocks that pay an arbitrary output script descriptor. (#16943 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16943))

Updated RPCs

• The verifychain RPC default values are now static instead of depending on the command line options or configuration file (-checklevel, and -checkblocks). Users can pass in the RPC arguments explicitly when they don't want to rely on the default values. (#18541 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18541))
• The getblockchaininfo RPC's verificationprogress field will no longer report values higher than 1. Previously it would occasionally report the chain was more than 100% verified.(#17328 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17328))

Tests

• It is now an error to use an unqualified walletdir=path setting in the config file if running on testnet or regtest networks. The setting now needs to be qualified as chain.walletdir=path or placed in the appropriate [chain] section. (#17447 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17447))
• fallbackfee was 0 (disabled) by default for the main chain, but 0.0002 by default for the test chains. Now it is 0 by default for all chains. Testnet and regtest users will have to add fallbackfee=0.0002 to their configuration if they weren't setting it and they want it to keep working like before. (#16524 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16524)
  

Build system

• Support is provided for building with the Android Native Development Kit (NDK). (#16110 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16110))
