Just started doing work with bitcoin core and i want list of newest transactions first.
I though listtransactions would do it but no, it always returns the list starting from the oldest.
I COULD iterate through all of the transactions but its not optimal.
Shouldnt this function have a simple order ASC / DESC parameter?
I would argue if you're writing a program that interfaces with Bitcoin Core (even if it's just a shell script) you could just do the ordering in there, after parsing the call's output.
We like to keep Bitcoin Core clean and lean and not add too many unnecessary features. Less code = less potential bugs, easier to audit.
