-
-*Thanks to [our
-volunteers](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/graphs/contributors?from=2014-12-01&to=2015-02-28&type=c)
-and the financial sponsorship of [The Bitcoin
-Foundation](https://bitcoinfoundation.org/), we've made the
-following accomplishments this quarter.*
-
-Summary for December 2014, January 2015, and February 2015.
-
-* **Quarterly page views:** [over 7 million.](https://bitcoin.org/stats/)
-
-* **Translations:** Bitcoin.org now has fully proofread and complete
-  translations for 26 languages. New and significantly-improved
-  translations added this quarter include Bulgarian, Greek, Polish,
-  and Turkish.
-
-* **Developer documentation:** added 114 new or completely rewritten
-  printed pages worth of text describing Bitcoin Core's RPC interface
-  and 8 more pages describing its new HTTP REST interface. Bitcoin Core
-  0.10.0's new headers-first sync is now documented as is the older
-  blocks-first sync. Begun in the previous quarter, this quarter also
-  saw the completion of over 30 printed pages worth of text describing
-  the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network.
-
-* **Contributors:** long-time site maintainer Saïvann Carignan, who has
-  made [over 1,000
-  commits](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/commits/master?author=saivann)
-  during the past two years, has announced he no longer has time to lead
-  the project. A search is on for new volunteers who are willing to
-  contribute to one of most trusted Bitcoin resources on the Internet.
-
-* **Wallets:** reviewed and added three new wallets to the Choose Your
-  Wallet page, and all previously-listed wallets now support HTTP Strict
-  Transport Security (HSTS) for secure parts of their sites.
-
-* **User guides:** A new guide has been published to the site providing
-  detailed instructions for supporting the network by running the
-  Bitcoin Core full node. The announcement of the page received over
-  [200 upvotes on
-  Reddit](http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2wvdko/new_page_on_bitcoinorg_running_a_full_node/).
-
-## Translations
-
-> "Muchas gracias por atender esto inmediatamente, ¡y por el trabajo
-> realizado!" (Many thanks for doing this immediately, and for all the
-> work done!) --Adamantike on Transifex.com
-
-![Bitcoin.org available in 26 languages](/img/blog/free/translations.png)
-
-Non-US/UK visitors accounted for 35% percent of Bitcoin.org's traffic
-this quarter, about 2.5 million page views. Future translation work will
-likely depend on how the English portion of the site is changed in the
-coming months.
-
-* **Newly proofread:** Bulgarian, Polish, and Turkish translations
-
-* **FAQ translated:** the longest localized page on the site, the
-  [FAQ](http://btcorg.localhost/en/faq) has now been translated into
-  Polish and Turkish.
-
-* **Newly added:** a Greek translation
-
-* **Updated:** this quarter saw updates small and large for the
-  translations to Bulgarian, Chinese (Traditional), Chinese
-  (Simplified), Danish, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian,
-  Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese,
-  Romanian, Russian, Swedish, Turkish, and Ukrainian.
-
-We are extremely grateful for all the translations contributed by
-volunteers and paid translators on our [Transifex project
-page](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/bitcoinorg/) as well as the
-many reviews made by Saïvann Carignan.
-

-
-## Developer documentation
-
-> "Nice work!" ---Jonas Schnelli about the new HTTP REST documentation
-> ([source](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/720#issuecomment-71515413))
-
-![Illustration from new headers-first documentation](/img/blog/free/en-headers-first-moving-window.png)
-
-The three main developer documentation webpages received a total
-of about 90,000 page views this quarter. Accomplishments this
-quarter include:
-
-* **RPC rewrite:** added [114 new or completely
-  rewritten](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/693) printed
-  pages worth of text describing Bitcoin Core's RPC interface and [8
-  more pages](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/720)
-  describing its new HTTP REST interface.
-
-* **What's headers first?** Bitcoin Core 0.10.0's new
-  headers-first sync [is now
-  documented](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/736) as is
-  [the older blocks-first
-  sync](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/685).
-
-* **P2P protocol:** begun in the previous quarter, this quarter also saw
-  the [completion](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/657) of
-  over 30 printed pages worth of text [describing the Bitcoin
-  peer-to-peer network](https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-reference#p2p-network).
-
-* **Ease contribution:** nearly every subheading [now
-  includes](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/682) links that
-  allow instant submission of corrections or reporting of issues related
-  to the text.
-
-* **Documentation is not a specification:** relaying comments frequently
-  made by Bitcoin Core developers, we now make clear that the
-  [documentation is not a
-  specification](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/679)
-
-* **Bitcoin Core 0.10.0:** many small changes were made to update the
-  documentation to accurately describe Bitcoin Core 0.10.0 behavior.
-
-Most documentation was written by David A. Harding, with reviews
-conducted by Saïvann Carignan, Jonas Schnelli, and others.
-
-## Regular Updates
-
-> "Great!"
-> "Thanks."
-> "Thank you!"
-> ---Users after we helped promote their Bitcoin events (sources:
-> [1](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/702),
-> [2](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/741),
-> [3](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/741))
-
-![Excerpt from the Events page map](/img/blog/free/events.png)
-
-The English [homepage](https://bitcoin.org/en/) and [Getting
-Started](https://bitcoin.org/en/getting-started) page by themselves
-received over 2.0 million visits this quarter. These and other regular
-content pages are often updated based on suggestions by first-time
-contributors, with the bulk of updates going to the [Events
-page](https://bitcoin.org/en/events) and the [Resources
-page](https://bitcoin.org/en/resources) (and its many translations).
-
-* **Update events:** listed 20 new events in addition to the events
-  automatically listed by the site software.
-
-* **Update links:** updated redirected or broken links, as well as removed
-  or redirected links that point to resources our contributors no longer
-  think are useful.
-
-* **Localize links:** pointed links to relevant local resources for some
-  languages.
-
-* **Add non-profit link directory:** added the excellent non-profit link
-  directory compiled by GiveBTC.org.
-
-* **Mention innovative technology:** added the Lighthouse P2P crowdfunding
-  platform to the list of innovative Bitcoin technology.
-
-We are grateful to all of the contributors who opened issues and made
-pull requests to keep the site content current and useful.
-
-## Wallets
-
-> "Thank you! Good catch!" ---GreenAddress on GitHub after we discovered
-> a bug in the new GreenBits wallet
-> ([source](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/725#issuecomment-73322654))
-
-![Just some of the wallets currently listed](/img/blog/free/wallets.png)
-
-The [Choose Your Wallet page](https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet)
-is one of our most visited pages---just the English version of the page
-alone has received over 400,000 visitors this quarter.  However,
-maintaining the page is also one of our most time-consuming activities due
-to the number of wallet authors who want us to include their wallet on
-the page.
-
-* **New wallets:** we reviewed and added three new wallets
-  [Airbitz](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/652),
-  [Circle](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/697), and
-  [Coinapult](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/577).
-
-* **Made HSTS a requirement:** after contacting eight wallet
-  providers and asking them to enable HTTP Strict Transport Security
-  (HSTS) on their sites, all eight eventually agreed to use this
-  simple server setting to help prevent possibly-devastating
-  man-in-the-middle attacks.
-
-* **Removed Blockchain.info:** although a very popular wallet service,
-  Blockchain.info was
-  [delisted](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/663) after a
-  polite online discussion with its CEO. A period of 60 days was chosen,
-  after which they may apply to be relisted.
-
-* **Published wallet requirements:** a set of wallet requirements and
-  guidelines [were
-  discussed](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/670) and
-  published, allowing wallet authors to evaluate for themselves whether
-  their wallet would be a good fit for Bitcoin.org.
-
-Saïvann Carignan spearheaded all the wallet efforts above, although we
-are also grateful to the many people who commented on the wallet issues
-and pull requests.
-
-As Saïvann has become too busy to continue maintenance of the wallet
-section of the site, we are actively [looking for a
-volunteer](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/778) to take
-over reviewing wallets and managing wallet requirements. This is a great
-volunteer position for anyone who likes trying new wallets and who wants
-to interact directly with wallet authors.
-
-
-
-## New Full Node Guide
-
-> "Awesome, thanks for writing this down!" ---Andreas Schildbach on
-> GitHub
-> ([source](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/711#issuecomment-70187037))
-
-![Screenshot included in the full node guide](/img/blog/free/bitcoin-core.png)
-
-Fulfilling a [request made by Wladimir J. van der
-Laan](http://www.mail-archive.com/bitcoin-development%40lists.sourceforge.net/msg05406.html),
-Bitcoin Core's lead developer, we were proud to write and publish a
-[guide to running a full node](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node) this
-quarter.  The goal is to encourage users to run full nodes when possible
-to support the Bitcoin network.
-
-As of February 28th, the full node guide has been published for only
-five days and has received over 4,000 page views.
-
-* **Target multiple OSes:** initial instructions are provided for Ubuntu
-  Desktop and Ubuntu Server, other Linux distributions (desktop or
-  server), and Windows 7 (desktop only). New volunteers have [begun the
-  process](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/763) of
-  contributing Windows 8.1 instructions, and we are still looking for a
-  Mac user to contribute OS X instructions.
-
-* **Describe opening port 8333:** thanks to the core developers, running
-  Bitcoin Core is easy. The hard part for some users is opening port
-  8333, so we [provide detailed
-  instructions](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#network-configuration)
-  for just that aspect.
-
-* **Detail risks:** feedback from a core developer encouraged us to make
-  it clear that running a full node isn't always easy, so users who read
-  our guide won't become demoralized and give up on running a full node
-  forever the first time they encounter a problem.
-
-* **Over 200 upvotes:** soon after release, the guide was submitted to
-  Reddit where it received [over 200
-  upvotes](http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2wvdko/new_page_on_bitcoinorg_running_a_full_node/)
-  and a rare "98% upvoted" quality score.
-
-The guide was primarily written by David A. Harding, with reviews by
-Saïvann Carignan and Jameson Lopp, and promotion also by Jameson.
-
-## Website Improvements
-
-> "Confirmed it works. Thanks a lot!" --Wladimir J. van der Laan on
-> GitHub about the updated Download page
-> ([source](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/664#issuecomment-74473907))
-
-Sometimes small tweaks to the site can have a large impact. Some of the
-changes made this quarter include:
-
-![New torrent and magnet links](/img/blog/free/torrent.png)
-
-* **Bitcoin Core 0.10.0:** it is our privilege to help the
-  core developers release new versions of Bitcoin Core by
-  [updating](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/664) the
-  [Download page](https://bitcoin.org/en/download) and the [hosted
-  release notes.](https://bitcoin.org/en/version-history) For the
-  0.10.0 release, we added a [torrent
-  file](https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.10.0/bitcoin-0.10.0.torrent)
-  and [magnet
-  link](magnet:?xt=urn:btih:170c61fe09dafecfbb97cb4dccd32173383f4e68&dn=0.10.0&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.publicbt.com%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ccc.de%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337&ws=https%3A%2F%2Fbitcoin.org%2Fbin%2F)
-  to help ensure availability of the files even if Bitcoin.org
-  goes down.
-
-    The new torrent has been downloaded over 900 times and there are at
-    least 44 active seeders as of February 28th.
-
-* **Image optimization:** 83 SVG images were
-  [optimized,](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/774) saving
-  over 250 KB of disk space and a significant amount of bandwidth, as
-  well as helping users on slow connections read the site more quickly.
-
-* **Release ordering:** as the core developers plan to backport the
-  BIP66 changes to older versions of Bitcoin Core, we've made sure the
-  release notes on the site are ordered by version number rather than
-  date so that we always recommend the highest version of Bitcoin Core
-  to new users.
-
-Saïvann Carignan wrote the code to enable the torrent and magnet links
-as well as sorting releases by version number. J. Louis optimized the
-SVG images.
-
-## Server And Development Tools
-
-> "I don't know what people are complaining about... I think it's pretty
-> great actually!" ---/u/itsgremlin on Reddit about Bitcoin.org in
-> general
-> ([source](http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2oessw/bitcoinorg_what_would_you_want_here/cmmg9r7))
-
-![Travis CI verifying the site builds correctly](/img/blog/free/travis.png)
-
-With 7 million page views per quarter, Bitcoin.org serves an average of
-54 pages a minute---so even a single second of downtime might prevent us
-from helping a Bitcoin user. This quarter we took additional steps to
-ensure that the site works correctly while also attempting to make it
-easier for new volunteers to contribute to keeping the site accurate and
-updated.
-
-* **Continuous integration:** each new pull request improving the site
-  is now [automatically built using Travis
-  CI](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/771), allowing
-  contributors to quickly discover bugs in their code even if they don't
-  compile the site themselves.
-
-* **Troubleshooting:**
-  [investigated](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/712) slow
-  bandwidth issues with downloads.
-
-* **Preventive maintenance:** mitigated DDoS attacks and made sure stats
-  are not affected by attacks. Also set Content-Security-Policy policies
-  against XSS attacks.
-
-* **Guide volunteers:** [added a
-  list](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/742) of [suggestions
-  for new
-  contributors](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org#how-to-participate)
-  so they can dive in immediately.
-
-* **Audits:** wrote an automated script that will send an alert when
-  sensitive parts of the site are changed or when Bitcoin Core downloads
-  are missing correct signatures.
-
-Travis CI support was added by David A. Harding with advice and support
-from Cory Fields, Wladimir J. van der Laan, and Pieter Wuille.
-Troubleshooting was performed by Saïvann Carignan with the help of
-GitHub user @patrikr, Christopher Gurnee, and David. Preventative
-maintenance and audit code were contributions by Saïvann, and the
-volunteer quick start guide was contributed by David.
-
-## Public Website Statistics

-## Next Quarter's Goals
-
-> "I'm running a full node (~20 connections) with Bitcoin Core Version
-> v0.10.0rc1 (64-Bit) on Windows 8.1 and willing to help out!"\
-> ---Volunteer on GitHub for the Full Node page
-> ([source](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/763))
-
-In addition to Bitcoin.org's recurring goals, such as funding the
-servers (currently about $600 USD per month), we hope to accomplish the
-following three major goals during the next quarter:
-
-1. **New wallet maintainer:** we're [seeking a
-   volunteer](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/778) to
-   review new wallets for inclusion on the Choose Your Wallet page, as
-   well as to monitor existing wallets for problems and to propose new
-   criteria that allow us to only recommend the very best wallets.
-
-2. **New developer documentation:** the developer documentation is
-   currently 250 printed pages long, and on May 24th it will celebrate
-   its [one-year
-   anniversary](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/393#issuecomment-44089996)
-   on Bitcoin.org. In the upcoming quarter we plan to add about 50 more
-   printed pages worth of content, including:
-
-    * A [glossary/vocabulary
-      page](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bitcoin-documentation/s_mL1syxYoQ)
-      providing definitions for the over 150 specialized terms and
-      synonyms used in Bitcoin development
-
-    * Documentation for at least the most common opcodes, and possibly
-      all the enabled opcodes. This section will be essentially a more
-      detailed version of the [Bitcoin Wiki script
-      page](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script)
-
-    * [Improved type
-      information](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/753) in
-      the RPC and REST sections, as
-      [requested](http://www.mail-archive.com/bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net/msg07069.html)
-      by Ocaml-Bitcoin developer Dario Teixeira.
-
-    * Substantially revising and expanding the [current wallet
-      section](https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-guide#wallets), likely
-      leading to a new section focused on ECDSA keys and signatures.
-
-    * Continuing to expand the [overview of the Bitcoin P2P
-      protocol](https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-guide#p2p-network).
-
-3. **Better volunteer resources:** we want to make it easier for
-   community members to volunteer to contribute to Bitcoin.org in ways
-   both small and large. New documentation about site procedures is
-   forthcoming and we will be looking for other ways to encourage and
-   simplify first-time contributions.
-
-## Thanks To Sponsors And Volunteers
-
-> "Thank you for your sponsorship and your support of our work!"
-> ---Saïvann Carignan
-
-> "The Foundation provides us a modest monthly grant so we can pay for
-> servers and some other stuff, and we put their logo on the bottom of
-> the page and write a quarterly report telling them what we've
-> accomplished thanks to their sponsorship. Beyond that, they let us
-> make our own decisions, for which independence we're quite grateful."
-> ---David A. Harding on Reddit
-> ([source](http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2wvdko/new_page_on_bitcoinorg_running_a_full_node/couu1cv))
-
-We thank [The Bitcoin Foundation](https://bitcoinfoundation.org/) for

-
-*Thanks to [our
-volunteers](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/graphs/contributors?from=2015-03-01&to=2015-03-31&type=c)
-and the financial sponsorship of [The Bitcoin
-Foundation](https://bitcoinfoundation.org/), we made the following
-accomplishments this month.*
-
-* **No more broken links:** all internal links on Bitcoin.org's 834 pages
-  are now automatically checked by [HTML Proofer][] through our [Travis
-  Continuous Integration (CI)][] infrastructure. We plan to enable HTML
-  Proofer's HTML validation subroutine in the future to provide even
-  better quality assurance. Thanks to HTML Proofer author [Garen
-  Torikian][] for writing such a great tool!
-
-* **Coinapult wallet** was briefly removed from the Bitcoin.org [Choose Your
-  Wallet][] page after they suffered a security breach. After restoring
-  full services to their customers and assuring us that customer
-  deposits are safe, we re-added them.
-
-* **KnC wallet** has been removed from the Choose Your Wallet page after
-  multiple issues, including an abandoned website, no new commits to
-  [their codebase][] in several months, and reports that their iOS app
-  no longer worked. (In positive news, we have received reports that it
-  is still possible to recover funds from the wallet seed.)
-
-* **Translations** were updated thanks to translation volunteers on
-  [Transifex][].
-
-* **Seven new events** were added. Please check the [Events page][] to see
-  whether there are any interesting Bitcoin meetups or conferences in
-  your area.
-
-* **New pages & features:** a [developer documentation][] glossary
-  section and Javascript-based search engine were [proposed][] but not
-  quite finished by the end of the month.
-
-## Site Traffic
-
-According to or [website statistics][], 4.3 million people visited the
-website in March.  However, as seen in the illustration below, there was
-a suspicious spike in visits that look like a possible attempt at
-[referer spam][] (even though we don't publish referer information).
-Almost all of the suspicious traffic was directed at the Spanish, Dutch,
-and French Bitcoin.org home pages, leaving statistics for the rest of
-the site fairly accurate.
-
-We suspect the accurate number of unique visitors in March was around
-2.0 million, roughly the same as in February.
-
-![March traffic statistics graph](/img/blog/free/stats-2015-03.png)
-
-Notable traffic patterns this month included:
-
-* The [Full Node Guide][] first released last month received over 8,000
-  page views, a surprisingly high number for a new technical document.
-  Hopefully this is a sign that users really want to run full nodes for
-  themselves.
-
-* The [Choose Your Wallet page][] continues to receive over 130,000 page
-  views a month, as it keeps on trying to help novice users choose
-  their first Bitcoin wallet.
-
-* The [Bitcoin Core Download page][] has just as many page views as it
-  did last month (75,000) when Bitcoin Core 0.10.0 was released.  If you
-  haven't upgraded yet to get new features like [headers-first block
-  sync][] and [lower vulnerability to OpenSSL code changes][], take some
-  time to read the [0.10.0 release notes][] to see what you're missing.
-

-title: "Dev Docs: New Glossary And Search Feature"
-permalink: /en/posts/developer-docs-glossary-and-search.html
-date: 2015-04-14
-author: >
-  David A. Harding (<a href="mailto:dave@dtrt.org">email</a>, <a
-  href="https://github.com/harding">GitHub</a>,
-  <a href="http://www.reddit.com/user/harda/">Reddit</a>)
----
-
-*Thanks to [several volunteers][] and the financial sponsorship of [The
-Bitcoin Foundation][], we've added two major new features to the
-[Bitcoin.org Developer Documentation][].*
-
-A new [glossary section][] has been added to the Bitcoin.org Developer
-Documentation, and with it comes a fully-Javascript search engine that
-helps you look up glossary entries, Bitcoin Core RPCs, Bitcoin BIPs,
-Script-language opcodes, and Bitcoin P2P protocol messages.
-
-## Developer glossary main page
-
-![Developer glossary main page](/img/blog/free/devglossary-main-page.png)
-
-The glossary main page provides a search box and a sorted list of terms.
-It uses a floating list so that it looks good on both mobiles and
-desktop/laptop screens.
-
-A link is provided at the bottom of the page to allow readers to
-recommend new glossary terms. (It works like the Submit New Event link
-on the [Events page][].)
-
-### Glossary entries
-
-![Glossary entries](/img/blog/free/devglossary-entries.png)
-
-Each glossary entry has its own page providing a short definition
-(limited to 255 characters), one or more synonyms, zero or more "not to
-be confused with" terms, and zero or more links to resources on and off
-Bitcoin.org. Separate pages were used to allow search engines to link
-directly to the most relevant entry, rather than forcing users to scroll
-through a giant page of definitions.
-
-The glossary currently has:
-
-* 89 glossary entry pages
-* 51 additional synonyms
-* 222 links (all internal to Bitcoin.org or to Bitcoin Wiki, BitcoinTalk, or Bitcoin StackExchange)
-
-Each page includes links to edit it, view its history, or report an
-issue about it.
-
-### Dev search box
-
-![Glossary search box](/img/blog/free/devglossary-search-box.png)
-
-A Javascript-powered search box is added to the following pages: [Dev
-Guide][], [Dev Reference][], [Dev Examples][], [Dev Glossary][], and individual
-glossary entry pages.
-
-The box allows finding the following by keyword, listed in the order
-they appear in the search:
-
-* Glossary entries (Bitcoin.org)
-* RPCs  (Bitcoin.org)
-* Opcodes (Bitcoin Wiki)
-* BIPs (just notable and non-withdrawn BIPs; GitHub.com BIPs repo)
-* Bitcoin P2P protocol messages (Bitcoin.org)
-
-The search uses [JQuery][] and [JQuery UI][], both MIT-licensed. Both are
-loaded from the Bitcoin.org server so there's no stats leakage when
-people load them.

-title: "Bitcoin.org Hard Fork Policy"
-permalink: /en/posts/hard-fork-policy.html
-date: 2015-06-16
----
-Contentious hard forks are bad for Bitcoin. At the very best, a
-contentious hard fork will leave people who chose the losing side of the
-fork feeling disenfranchised. At the very worst, it will make bitcoins
-permanently lose their value. In between are many possible outcomes, but
-none of them are good.
-
-The danger of a contentious hard fork is potentially so significant
-that Bitcoin.org has decided to adopt a new policy:
-
-> Bitcoin.org will not promote software or services that will leave the
-> previous consensus because of an intentional and contentious hard fork attempt.
-
-This policy applies to full node software, such as Bitcoin Core,
-software forks of Bitcoin Core, and alternative full node
-implementations.
-
-It also applies to wallets and services that have the ability to detect
-the contentious hard fork, and which release code or make announcements
-indicating that they will cease operating on the side of the previous
-consensus.
-It does not apply to software that cannot detect the contentious hard
-fork and which continues doing whatever it would've done anyway.
-
-To be clear, we encourage wallet authors and service providers to offer
-their opinions on hard fork proposals, and we will not penalize anyone
-for contributing to a discussion. We will only stop promoting particular
-wallets and services if they plan to move their users onto a
-contentious hard fork by default.

-Bitcoin.org has moved our main git repository to the new
-*bitcoin-dot-org* GitHub organization:
-<https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org>
-
-We moved to an independent organization to make clear that Bitcoin.org
-and Bitcoin Core are separate projects, even though we frequently have
-the pleasure of working together.
-
-Nothing besides the repository URL has changed---Bitcoin.org will
-continue to provide all of the same information and resources as it did
-before.  The [team of contributors][] is also staying the same.
-
-Existing links to the old repository (including developer git
-configurations) should continue to work, but we that suggest you upgrade
-them to point to the new repository at your first convenience. Git users
-can who have the Bitcoin.org repository as their `upstream` can run,
-
-    cd bitcoin.org
-    git remote set-url upstream 'https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org'
-
-All current [issues][] and [pull requests][] remain open, and any [forks hosted
-on GitHub][] shouldn't need to be updated.
-
-If you have any problems, please [open an issue][].

-
-Bitcoin.org is proud to announce the addition of a dozen new pages to
-the site about [Bitcoin Core][].  Several of the pages describe [Bitcoin
-Core's powerful features][], others [provide help][] for Bitcoin Core
-users, and several make it easier to [start contributing][] to
-Bitcoin Core.

-These new pages give us a chance to introduce more recent Bitcoin users
-to the advantages of full nodes like Bitcoin Core, particularly how full
-validation [helps protect Bitcoin's essential decentralization][] from
-takeover by a handful of miners, Bitcoin banks, and service providers.
-
-## A Brief Guide to The New Pages
-
-- [Bitcoin Core overview][]: provides a brief description of Bitcoin
-  Core and links to the other sections of the sub-site.
-
-- [Feature overview][]: briefly describes some of Bitcoin Core's
-  leading benefits and links to pages that provide more details.
-
-- [Get help page][]: resources to help Bitcoin Core users find help.
-  Prior to this PR, we also created and filled a category on the Bitcoin
-  Wiki with all the existing [Bitcoin Core help pages][].
-
-- [Contribute overview][]: links to ways you can directly contribute to
-  Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Core users.
-
-## Future Plans
-
-We plan to enhance this new section of the Bitcoin.org website by
-collecting together some of Bitcoin Core's disparate documentation and
-providing instructions for important ways users can enhance their privacy and
-security while using Bitcoin Core—such as using Tor and an offline
-wallet.
-
-In addition, we hope to provide more resources that help businesses
-understand the benefits of validating the transactions they receive with
-their own full nodes.
-
-If you want to help, please feel free to email the Bitcoin.org
-documentation maintainer,
-{{site.text.bitcoin_org_docs_maintainer_email_link}}.
-
-## Thank You
-
-Thank you to everyone who made these pages possible, especially the
-people who reviewed Bitcoin.org pull requests [1044][],
-[1009][], [1007][], [966][], [957][], and [869][] as well as the
-[Bitcoin Foundation][] for their funding of the Bitcoin.org server
-during the time these pages were written.

-title: "Updated Instructions: How to Run a Full Node"
-permalink: /en/posts/how-to-run-a-full-node.html
-date: 2016-12-31
-author: |
-  <a href="https://github.com/wbnns">Will Binns</a>
----
-
-{:.center}
-![How to Run a Full Node](/img/blog/free/how-to-run-a-full-bitcoin-node.png)
-
-Updated instructions for [how to run a full node](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node)
-as of version **0.13.1** are now available on Bitcoin.org. These instructions allow
-one to quickly get set up and running with a full node on the following
-operating systems:
-
-- [Linux](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#linux-instructions)
-
-- [MacOS](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#mac-os-x-instructions)
-
-- [Windows](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#windows-instructions)
-
-In addition to the above operating systems, tips on [how to configure a full
-bitcoin node for a local area network](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#network-configuration)
-and [how to tweak the reference client configuration](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#configuration-tuning)
-are available.
-
-## Why is running a full bitcoin node important?
-Full nodes help enforce the consensus rules of the Bitcoin network. When a full
-node client is running, it downloads every new block and every new transaction
-and checks them to make sure they are valid. Here are some examples of consensus
-rules, though there are many more:
-
-- Blocks may only [create](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Controlled_supply) a
-  certain number of bitcoins.
-
-- Transactions must have correct signatures for the bitcoins being spent.
-
-- Transactions/blocks must be in the correct data format.
-
-- Within the [block chain](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Block_chain), a transaction
-  output cannot be double-spent.
-
-*Read more about what a full node is, the consensus rules above and other
-incentives for supporting the network in the [Bitcoin Wiki](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Full_node).*
-
-## Minimum Requirements
-Bitcoin Core full nodes have certain requirements. If you try running a node on
-weak hardware, it may work — but you’ll likely spend more time dealing with
-issues. If you can meet the following requirements, you’ll have an easy-to-use
-node.
-
-- Desktop or laptop hardware running recent versions of Windows, Mac OS X, or
-  Linux.
-
-- 125GB of free disk space (size of the blockchain plus room to grow)
-
-- 2GB of memory (RAM)
-
-- A broadband Internet connection with upload speeds of at least 400 kilobits
-  (50 kilobytes) per second
-
-- An unmetered connection, a connection with high upload limits, or a connection
-  you regularly monitor to ensure it doesn’t exceed its upload limits. It’s
-common for full nodes on high-speed connections to use 200GB in uploads or more
-a month. Download usage is around 20GB/month, plus around an additional 100GB
-the first time you start your node.
-
-- 6 hours/day that your full node can be left running. (You can do other things
-  with your computer while running a full node.) More hours would be better, and
-best of all would be if you can run your node continuously.
-
-**Note:** many operating systems today (Windows, Mac, and Linux) enter a low-power
-mode after the screensaver activates, slowing or halting network traffic. This
-is often the default setting on laptops and on all Mac OS X laptops and
-desktops. Check your screensaver settings and disable automatic “sleep” or
-“suspend” options to ensure you support the network whenever your computer is
-running.
-
-## What to do if you need help
-Please seek out assistance in the [community](https://bitcoin.org/en/community)
-if you need help setting up your full node correctly to handle high-value and
-privacy-sensitive tasks. Do your own diligence to ensure who you get help from
-is ethical, reputable and qualified to assist you.

-![Bitcoin Exchanges](/img/blog/free/bitcoin-exchanges.png)
-
-[A directory of Bitcoin Exchanges servicing the world’s 20 largest
-economies](https://bitcoin.org/en/exchanges), as well as several international
-options (serving many countries) are now available on Bitcoin.org.
-
-## Helping People Interested in Bitcoin, Get Bitcoin
-This new addition to the site:
-
-- Links to the `Find an Exchange` button on the [Getting Started](https://bitcoin.org/en/getting-started)
-page and helps many of the new people entering the Bitcoin ecosystem via
-Bitcoin.org, get bitcoin.
-- Improves SEO for Bitcoin.org, because the site can now potentially rank very
-well for “Bitcoin Exchange” as well as other key phrases that include country
-names that are contained on the page (i.e. Bitcoin Exchange China, Bitcoin
-Exchange India, etc.).
-- Has unique anchor links for each country that people can share on social media
-that will allow others to find the bitcoin exchanges that are available for
-their specific country.
-- Allows Bitcoin.org to focus the [wallets page](https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet)
-on wallets that allow people to maintain full control over their funds
-(Resolving [issue #1109](https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/issues/1109),
-because custodial wallets that provide exchange services can be moved off of the
-wallets page to this new page).
-- Is also accessible via the Resources `dropdown` menu.
-
-## Questions, Comments & Feedback
-Questions, issues, suggestions or feedback are always welcome on Bitcoin.org. If
-interested in contributing in this regard, please open an issue or submit a pull
-request.
-
-## Use Discretion when Choosing an Exchange
-As noted in the above screen shot, Bitcoin Exchanges provide varying degrees of
-safety, security, privacy, and control over your funds and information. Perform
-your own due diligence and choose a wallet where you will keep your bitcoin
-before selecting an exchange.

-![Bitcoin Core Version 0.14.0](/img/blog/free/bitcoin-core-0140.png)
-
-[Bitcoin Core version 0.14.0 is now available](https://bitcoin.org/en/download).
-
-This is a new major version release, including new features, various bugfixes
-and performance improvements, as well as updated translations.
-
-Please report bugs using the [issue tracker on GitHub](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues).
-
-[Subscribe here](https://bitcoincore.org/en/list/announcements/join/) to receive
-security and update notifications.
-
-## Compatibility
-
-Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using
-the Linux kernel, macOS 10.8+, and Windows Vista and later.
-
-Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on [April 8th,
-2014](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/end-of-xp-support),
-No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP,
-you can still do so at your own risk but be aware that there are known
-instabilities and issues. Please do not report issues about Windows XP to the
-[issue tracker](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues).
-
-Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not
-frequently tested on them.
-
-## Notable changes
-
-### Performance Improvements
-
-Validation speed and network propagation performance have been greatly
-improved, leading to much shorter sync and initial block download times.
-
-- The script signature cache has been reimplemented as a "cuckoo cache",
-  allowing for more signatures to be cached and faster lookups.
-- Assumed-valid blocks have been introduced which allows script validation to
-  be skipped for ancestors of known-good blocks, without changing the security
-  model. See below for more details.
-- In some cases, compact blocks are now relayed before being fully validated as
-  per BIP152.
-- P2P networking has been refactored with a focus on concurrency and
-  throughput. Network operations are no longer bottlenecked by validation. As a
-  result, block fetching is several times faster than previous releases in many
-  cases.
-- The UTXO cache now claims unused mempool memory. This speeds up initial block
-  download as UTXO lookups are a major bottleneck there, and there is no use for
-  the mempool at that stage.
-
-
-### Manual Pruning
-
-Bitcoin Core has supported automatically pruning the blockchain since 0.11.
-Pruning the blockchain allows for significant storage space savings as the vast
-majority of the downloaded data can be discarded after processing so very little
-of it remains on the disk.
-
-Manual block pruning can now be enabled by setting `-prune=1`. Once that is set,
-the RPC command `pruneblockchain` can be used to prune the blockchain up to the
-specified height or timestamp.
-
-### `getinfo` has been deprecated
-
-The `getinfo` RPC command has been deprecated. Each field in the RPC call
-has been moved to another command's output with that command also giving
-additional information that `getinfo` did not provide. The following table
-shows where each field has been moved to:
-
-![getinfo RPC deprecation](/img/blog/free/getinfo-deprecation.png)
-
-### ZMQ On Windows
-
-Previously the ZeroMQ notification system was unavailable on Windows
-due to various issues with ZMQ. These have been fixed upstream and
-now ZMQ can be used on Windows. Please see [this
-document](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/zmq.md) for
-help with using ZMQ in general.
-
-### Nested RPC Commands in Debug Console
-
-The ability to nest RPC commands has been added to the debug console. This
-allows users to have the output of a command become the input to another
-command without running the commands separately.
-
-The nested RPC commands use bracket syntax (i.e. `getwalletinfo()`) and can be
-nested (i.e. `getblock(getblockhash(1))`). Simple queries can be done with
-square brackets where object values are accessed with either an array index or a
-non-quoted string. Both commas and spaces can be
-used to separate parameters in both the bracket syntax and normal RPC command
-syntax.
-
-### Network Activity Toggle
-
-A RPC command and GUI toggle have been added to enable or disable all p2p
-network activity. The network status icon in the bottom right hand corner 
-is now the GUI toggle. Clicking the icon will either enable or disable all
-p2p network activity. If network activity is disabled, the icon will 
-be grayed out with an X on top of it.
-
-Additionally the `setnetworkactive` RPC command has been added which does
-the same thing as the GUI icon. The command takes one boolean parameter,
-`true` enables networking and `false` disables it.
-
-### Out-of-sync Modal Info Layer
-
-When Bitcoin Core is out-of-sync on startup, a semi-transparent information
-layer will be shown over top of the normal display. This layer contains
-details about the current sync progress and estimates the amount of time
-remaining to finish syncing. This layer can also be hidden and subsequently
-unhidden by clicking on the progress bar at the bottom of the window.
-
-### Support for JSON-RPC Named Arguments
-
-Commands sent over the JSON-RPC interface and through the `bitcoin-cli` binary
-can now use named arguments. This follows the [JSON-RPC specification](http://www.jsonrpc.org/specification)
-for passing parameters by-name with an object.
-
-`bitcoin-cli` has been updated to support this by parsing `name=value` arguments
-when the `-named` option is given.
-
-Some examples:
-
-`src/bitcoin-cli -named help command="help"`
-`src/bitcoin-cli -named getblockhash height=0`
-`src/bitcoin-cli -named getblock blockhash=000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934...`
-`src/bitcoin-cli -named sendtoaddress address="(snip)" amount="1.0" subtractfeefromamount=true`
-
-The order of arguments doesn't matter in this case. Named arguments are also
-useful to leave out arguments that should stay at their default value. The
-rarely-used arguments `comment` and `comment_to` to `sendtoaddress`, for
-example, can be left out. However, this is not yet implemented for many RPC
-calls, this is expected to land in a later release.
-
-The RPC server remains fully backwards compatible with positional arguments.
-
-### Opt into RBF When Sending
-
-A new startup option, `-walletrbf`, has been added to allow users to have all
-transactions sent opt into RBF support. The default value for this option is
-currently `false`, so transactions will not opt into RBF by default. The new
-`bumpfee` RPC can be used to replace transactions that opt into RBF.
-
-### Sensitive Data Is No Longer Stored In Debug Console History
-
-The debug console maintains a history of previously entered commands that can be
-accessed by pressing the Up-arrow key so that users can easily reuse previously
-entered commands. Commands which have sensitive information such as passphrases
-and private keys will now have a `(...)` in place of the parameters when
-accessed through the history.
-
-### Retaining the Mempool Across Restarts
-
-The mempool will be saved to the data directory prior to shutdown to a
-`mempool.dat` file. This file preserves the mempool so that when the node
-restarts the mempool can be filled with transactions without waiting for new
-transactions to be created. This will also preserve any changes made to a
-transaction through commands such as `prioritisetransaction` so that those
-changes will not be lost.
-
-### Final Alert
-
-The Alert System was [disabled and deprecated](https://bitcoin.org/en/alert/2016-11-01-alert-retirement)
-in Bitcoin Core 0.12.1 and removed in 0.13.0. The Alert System was retired with
-a maximum sequence final alert which causes any nodes supporting the Alert
-System to display a static hard-coded "Alert Key Compromised" message which also
-prevents any other alerts from overriding it. This final alert is hard-coded
-into this release so that all old nodes receive the final alert.
-
-### GUI Changes
-
-- After resetting the options by clicking the `Reset Options` button 
-  in the options dialog or with the `-resetguioptions` startup option, 
-  the user will be prompted to choose the data directory again. This 
-  is to ensure that custom data directories will be kept after the 
-  option reset which clears the custom data directory set via the choose 
-  datadir dialog.
-- Multiple peers can now be selected in the list of peers in the debug 
-  window. This allows for users to ban or disconnect multiple peers 
-  simultaneously instead of banning them one at a time.
-- An indicator has been added to the bottom right hand corner of the main
-  window to indicate whether the wallet being used is a HD wallet. This
-  icon will be grayed out with an X on top of it if the wallet is not a
-  HD wallet.
-
-### Low-level RPC changes
-
- - `importprunedfunds` only accepts two required arguments. Some versions accept
-   an optional third arg, which was always ignored. Make sure to never pass more
-   than two arguments.
- - The first boolean argument to `getaddednodeinfo` has been removed. This is 
-   an incompatible change.
- - RPC command `getmininginfo` loses the "testnet" field in favor of the more
-   generic "chain" (which has been present for years).
- - A new RPC command `preciousblock` has been added which marks a block as
-   precious. A precious block will be treated as if it were received earlier
-   than a competing block.
- - A new RPC command `importmulti` has been added which receives an array of 
-   JSON objects representing the intention of importing a public key, a 
-   private key, an address and script/p2sh
- - Use of `getrawtransaction` for retrieving confirmed transactions with unspent
-   outputs has been deprecated. For now this will still work, but in the future
-   it may change to only be able to retrieve information about transactions in
-   the mempool or if `txindex` is enabled.
- - A new RPC command `getmemoryinfo` has been added which will return
-   information
-   about the memory usage of Bitcoin Core. This was added in conjunction with
-   optimizations to memory management. See [Pull #8753](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8753)
-   for more information.
- - A new RPC command `bumpfee` has been added which allows replacing an
-   unconfirmed wallet transaction that signaled RBF (see the `-walletrbf`
-   startup option above) with a new transaction that pays a higher fee, and
-   should be more likely to get confirmed quickly.
-
-### HTTP REST Changes
-
-- UTXO set query responses were changed to return status code `HTTP_BAD_REQUEST`
-  (400) instead of `HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR` (500) when requests contain
-  invalid parameters.
-
-### Minimum Fee Rate Policies
-
-Since the changes in 0.12 to automatically limit the size of the mempool and
-improve the performance of block creation in mining code it has not been
-important for relay nodes or miners to set `-minrelaytxfee`. With this release
-the following concepts that were tied to this option have been separated out:
-
-- incremental relay fee used for calculating BIP 125 replacement and mempool
-  limiting. (1000 satoshis/kB)
-- calculation of threshold for a dust output. (effectively 3 * 1000 satoshis/kB)
-- minimum fee rate of a package of transactions to be included in a block
-  created by the mining code. If miners wish to set this minimum they can use
-the new `-blockmintxfee` option.  (defaults to 1000 satoshis/kB)
-
-The `-minrelaytxfee` option continues to exist but is recommended to be left
-unset.
-
-### Fee Estimation Changes
-
-- Since 0.13.2 fee estimation for a confirmation target of 1 block has been
-  disabled. The fee slider will no longer be able to choose a target of 1 block.
-  This is only a minor behavior change as there was often insufficient
-  data for this target anyway. `estimatefee 1` will now always return -1 and
-  `estimatesmartfee 1` will start searching at a target of 2.
-
-- The default target for fee estimation is changed to 6 blocks in both the GUI
-  (previously 25) and for RPC calls (previously 2).
-
-### Removal of Priority Estimation
-
-- Estimation of "priority" needed for a transaction to be included within a
-  target
-  number of blocks has been removed.  The RPC calls are deprecated and will
-either
-  return -1 or 1e24 appropriately. The format for `fee_estimates.dat` has also
-  changed to no longer save these priority estimates. It will automatically be
-  converted to the new format which is not readable by prior versions of the
-  software.
-
-- Support for "priority" (coin age) transaction sorting for mining is
-  considered deprecated in Core and will be removed in the next major version.
-  This is not to be confused with the `prioritisetransaction` RPC which will
-remain
-  supported by Core for adding fee deltas to transactions.
-
-### P2P connection management
-
-- Peers manually added through the `-addnode` option or `addnode` RPC now have
-  their own
-  limit of eight connections which does not compete with other inbound or
-outbound
-  connection usage and is not subject to the limitation imposed by the
-`-maxconnections`
-  option.
-
-- New connections to manually added peers are performed more quickly.
-
-### Introduction of assumed-valid blocks
-
-- A significant portion of the initial block download time is spent verifying
-  scripts/signatures.  Although the verification must pass to ensure the
-security
-  of the system, no other result from this verification is needed: If the node
-  knew the history of a given block were valid it could skip checking scripts
-  for its ancestors.
-
-- A new configuration option 'assumevalid' is provided to express this knowledge
-  to the software.  Unlike the 'checkpoints' in the past this setting does not
-  force the use of a particular chain: chains that are consistent with it are
-  processed quicker, but other chains are still accepted if they'd otherwise
-  be chosen as best. Also unlike 'checkpoints' the user can configure which
-  block history is assumed true, this means that even outdated software can
-  sync more quickly if the setting is updated by the user.
-
-- Because the validity of a chain history is a simple objective fact it is much
-  easier to review this setting.  As a result the software ships with a default
-  value adjusted to match the current chain shortly before release.  The use
-  of this default value can be disabled by setting -assumevalid=0
-
-### Fundrawtransaction change address reuse
-
-- Before 0.14, `fundrawtransaction` was by default wallet stateless. In
-  almost all cases `fundrawtransaction` does add a change-output to the
-  outputs of the funded transaction. Before 0.14, the used keypool key was
-  never marked as change-address key and directly returned to the keypool
-  (leading to address reuse).  Before 0.14, calling `getnewaddress`
-  directly after `fundrawtransaction` did generate the same address as
-  the change-output address.
-
-- Since 0.14, fundrawtransaction does reserve the change-output-key from
-  the keypool by default (optional by setting  `reserveChangeKey`, default =
-  `true`)
-
-- Users should also consider using `getrawchangeaddress()` in conjunction
-  with `fundrawtransaction`'s `changeAddress` option.
-
-### Unused mempool memory used by coincache
-
-- Before 0.14, memory reserved for mempool (using the `-maxmempool` option)
-  went unused during initial block download, or IBD. In 0.14, the UTXO DB cache
-  (controlled with the `-dbcache` option) borrows memory from the mempool
-  when there is extra memory available. This may result in an increase in
-  memory usage during IBD for those previously relying on only the `-dbcache`
-  option to limit memory during that time.
-

-permalink: /en/posts/bitcoin-core-version-0-14-1-released.html

-![Bitcoin Core Version 0.14.1](/img/blog/free/bitcoin-core-0141.png)
-
-[Bitcoin Core version 0.14.1 is now available](https://bitcoin.org/en/download).
-
-This is a new minor version release, including various bugfixes and performance improvements, as well as updated translations.
-
-Please report bugs using the [issue tracker on GitHub](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues).
-
-[Subscribe here](https://bitcoincore.org/en/list/announcements/join/) to receive
-security and update notifications.
-
-## Compatibility
-
-Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using
-the Linux kernel, macOS 10.8+, and Windows Vista and later.
-
-Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on [April 8th,
-2014](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/end-of-xp-support),
-No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP,
-you can still do so at your own risk but be aware that there are known
-instabilities and issues. Please do not report issues about Windows XP to the
-[issue tracker](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues).
-
-Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not
-frequently tested on them.
-
-## Notable changes
-
-### RPC changes
-
-- The first positional argument of `createrawtransaction` was renamed from
-  `transactions` to `inputs`.
-- The argument of `disconnectnode` was renamed from `node` to `address`.
-
-These interface changes break compatibility with 0.14.0, when the named
-arguments functionality, introduced in 0.14.0, is used. Client software
-using these calls with named arguments needs to be updated.
-
-### Mining
-
-In previous versions, getblocktemplate required segwit support from downstream
-clients/miners once the feature activated on the network. In this version, it
-now supports non-segwit clients even after activation, by removing all segwit
-transactions from the returned block template. This allows non-segwit miners to
-continue functioning correctly even after segwit has activated.
-
-Due to the limitations in previous versions, getblocktemplate also recommended
-non-segwit clients to not signal for the segwit version-bit. Since this is no
-longer an issue, getblocktemplate now always recommends signalling segwit for
-all miners. This is safe because ability to enforce the rule is the only
-required criteria for safe activation, not actually producing segwit-enabled
-blocks.
-
-### UTXO memory accounting
-
-Memory usage for the UTXO cache is being calculated more accurately, so that
-the configured limit (`-dbcache`) will be respected when memory usage peaks
-during cache flushes.  The memory accounting in prior releases is estimated to
-only account for half the actual peak utilization.
-
-The default `-dbcache` has also been changed in this release to 450MiB.  Users
-who currently set `-dbcache` to a high value (e.g. to keep the UTXO more fully
-cached in memory) should consider increasing this setting in order to achieve
-the same cache performance as prior releases.  Users on low-memory systems
-(such as systems with 1GB or less) should consider specifying a lower value for
-this parameter.
-
-Additional information relating to running on low-memory systems can be found
-here:
-[reducing-bitcoind-memory-usage.md](https://gist.github.com/laanwj/efe29c7661ce9b6620a7).

-
-## Notable changes
-
-### miniupnp CVE-2017-8798
-
-Bundled miniupnpc was updated to 2.0.20170509. This fixes an integer signedness error
-(present in MiniUPnPc v1.4.20101221 through v2.0) that allows remote attackers
-(within the LAN) to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified
-other impact.
-
-This only affects users that have explicitly enabled UPnP through the GUI
-setting or through the `-upnp` option, as since the last UPnP vulnerability
-(in Bitcoin Core 0.10.3) it has been disabled by default.
-
-If you use this option, it is recommended to upgrade to this version as soon as
-possible.
-
-## Known Bugs
-
-Since 0.14.0 the approximate transaction fee shown in Bitcoin-Qt when using coin
-control and smart fee estimation does not reflect any change in target from the
-smart fee slider. It will only present an approximate fee calculated using the
-default target. The fee calculated using the correct target is still applied to
-the transaction and shown in the final send confirmation dialog.
-
