Byze v0.2.4 — Wallet load/rescan hang fix

Non-consensus point release. Backward compatible — no fork; interoperates with all v0.2.x nodes.

Fixed

  • Wallet load/rescan hang. Wallets with transaction history (mining pools, active or restored wallets) could hang on load and rescan extremely slowly. Root cause: IsQuantumMine() re-derived quantum (XMSS) keys per output during load and rescan (O(txouts x next_index) keygens). The wallet now uses the cached program instead; a busy wallet loads in ~60s including a full rescan.

Upgrade

Stop your node, replace the binaries, restart. Wallet files and chain data are unaffected. No consensus changes — upgrading is optional but recommended for anyone running a wallet.
