+0.19.1 Release Notes
+===============================
+
+Bitcoin Core version 0.19.1 is now available from:
+
+  <https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.19.1/>
+
+This minor release includes various bug fixes and performance
+improvements, as well as updated translations.
+
+Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub:
+
+  <https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues>
+
+To receive security and update notifications, please subscribe to:
+
+  <https://bitcoincore.org/en/list/announcements/join/>
+
+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 for older versions), 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 datadir 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 10.10+, and Windows 7 and newer. It is not recommended
+to use Bitcoin Core on unsupported systems.
+
+Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not
+as frequently tested on them.
+
+From Bitcoin Core 0.17.0 onwards, macOS versions earlier than 10.10 are no
+longer supported, as Bitcoin Core is now built using Qt 5.9.x which requires
+macOS 10.10+. Additionally, Bitcoin Core does not yet change appearance when
+macOS "dark mode" is activated.
+
+In addition to previously supported CPU platforms, this release's pre-compiled
+distribution provides binaries for the RISC-V platform.
