<br> FTX and Binance have entered into an acquisition agreement for an undisclosed amount. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies and their own rules of customer service. This fixes an interoperability issue when opening channels with LND, which may request a delay up to 2016 blocks, larger than the previous Rust-Lightning maximum of 1008 blocks. ● BTCPay 1.0.7.2 fixes minor issues discovered after last week’s security release. It adheres to the best industry practices while offering industry-leading security. This is mainly meant for container-based setups where the passphrase is already stored in a file, so using that file directly doesn’t create any additional security problems. The user can still generate a P2SH-wrapped segwit address by unchecking a box on the Request Payment screen in case they need to receive money from a service that doesn’t yet provide bech32 sending support. On a private finance front, it is greatest to save a protected wallet online at one of the reliable wallet services and then start earning some small quantities of Bitcoin just to catch a feel for how this economy functions and how you can influence this. Notable improvements include a more featureful and visually appealing wallet setup wizard, the ability to import wallets created using Specter, and more efficient QR codes for Bitcoinxxo noted bech32 addresses.
5256 allows reading the wallet passphrase from a file. This allows the user or parent process to more easily know whether the daemon started successfully by observing the program’s output or exit code. 5083 allows a PSBT to be read from a file rather than by reading the standard input (stdin) file descriptor. This was proposed for use with BIP67 key sorting, in particular as used with the sortedmulti output script descriptor. The way this was implemented created problems when the user explicitly specified the sortedmulti descriptor option that implements BIP67 key sorting. If a txid mutation happens, then the pre-signed refund transaction is not valid, so the user can’t get their funds back. This week, Rusty Russell posted to the Lightning-Dev mailing list about a quick and experimental feature he implemented in C-Lightning to help a user with this problem recover their funds. As discussed, the signal was never standardized and the procedure implemented by LND didn’t depend on signaling, so this change should allow C-Lightning to send to roughly the same set of nodes that LND can addres<br>/p>
Subsequent to this merge, a new PR was opened that will make experimenting with dual-funding more accessible by eliminating the need to compile C-Lightning with special build flags (although a special configuration option will still be required). It’s turtles – or, more precisely, feedback dynamics – all the way down. 5033 adds an updatechanstatus RPC that can advertise that a channel has been disabled (similar to your node going offline) or that it’s been re-enabled (similar to your node coming back online). 101), it’s common to create PSBTs over 3 KiB in size. Some terminals have a limit on the number of characters that can be added to stdin simultaneously (i.e. pasted), which made PSBTs over 4096 base64 characters (equivalent to 3.072 bytes of binary) unusable. Onion peers have historically been disadvantaged by the eviction criteria due to their higher latency relative to IPv4 and IPv6 peers, leading to users filing multiple issues. After this change, users of descriptors need to specify sortedmulti for devices that require lexicographic key sorting or multi for those that don’t. Users in the United States still can’t use the international Binance platform. His work has been featured in The Guardian, International Business Times, Forbes, VentureBeat, CoinDesk and many other top Bitcoin med<br>u<br>ts.
This extends prior work that enabled use of AMP by providing manually specfied payment parameters to the SendPayment RPC. 5253 adds support for Atomic Multipath Payment (AMP) invoices across high-level LND RPC commands such as SendPayment, AddInvoice, and SubscribeInvoice. ● Rust-Lightning 0.0.13 is the latest release for this LN library containing improvements aimed at forward compatibility with multipath payments and future script upgrades such as taproot. This week’s newsletter describes a discussion about rescuing lost LN funding transactions and includes our regular sections with announcements of releases, release candidates, and notable changes to popular Bitcoin infrastructure software. This week’s newsletter contains our regular sections with announcements of new releases and release candidates, plus notable changes to popular Bitcoin infrastructure projects. ● BTCPay Server 1.0.7.0 is the latest release for this self-hosted payment processing software. ● HWI 2.0.0 is the release for the next major version of HWI. The field has the same meaning in the current version of Bitcoin. ● Eclair 0.3.1 released: the newest version of this LN software includes new and improved API calls as well as other changes that allow it to perform faste<br>d use less memory.
