v5.x Release notes

v5.0

How to Upgrade

When upgrading to this version from hsd v4.x you must pass --wallet-migrate=2 when you run it for the first time (MAJOR #769).

Notable Changes

Node changes

  • HTTP API endpoint / (hsd-cli getinfo) now includes "public" networking settings (#696).

  • RPCs getnameinfo getnameresource verifymessagewithname and getnamebyhash now accept an additional boolean parameter safe which will resolve the name from the Urkel tree at the last "safe height" (committed tree root with > 12 confirmations). SPV nodes can use this option and retrieve Urkel proofs from the p2p network to respond to these calls. (#647)

  • New RPC methods:

    • decoderesource like decodescript accepts hex string as input and returns JSON formatted DNS records resource. (#719)

Wallet changes

  • HTTP Changes:

    • Wallet and account create methods now accept lookahead values up to 2^32 - 1 (MAJOR #769).

  • New RPC methods:

    • createbatch and sendbatch create batch transactions with any number of outputs with any combination of covenants. (#686)

  • Updates related to nonces and blinds (MAJOR #767)

    • Multisig wallets will compute nonces based on the LOWEST public key in the group. This makes multiparty bidding and revealing more deteministic. Older versions would always use the wallet's OWN public key. To preserve compatability with older software:
      • RPC method importnonce now returns an array of blinds instead of a single blind.
      • HTTP endpoint /wallet/:id/nonce/:name's response replaces 2 string fields (nonce, blind) with arrays of the same type (nonces, blinds)
