Joinmarket-clientserver 0.5.4: | ||
================= | ||
|
||
<https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/releases/tag/v0.5.4> | ||
|
||
This is a minor release adding a useful feature: basic coin control. Individual coins can | ||
be frozen. Also there are some corrections/improvements to documentation, and some | ||
minor fixes to the Qt GUI. | ||
|
||
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: | ||
|
||
<https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/issues> | ||
|
||
Upgrading | ||
========= | ||
|
||
To upgrade (but: read and follow instructions in 0.4.0 if from pre-0.4.0): | ||
|
||
First run the `install.sh` script as mentioned in the README. When prompted to overwrite the directory `jmvenv`, accept. | ||
To install using Python2, use `./install.sh -p python2` ; the default is now Python3. | ||
|
||
Note that `.install.sh -?` will show the options for installation. | ||
|
||
If you are running JoinmarketQt, note that Python2 is incompatible. | ||
|
||
Notable changes | ||
=============== | ||
|
||
### Basic coin control | ||
|
||
See issue #274 for some motivation. As a privacy wallet, and especially considering active dust | ||
attacks seen in the wild, this functionality is important. Note it is "basic" in the sense that it | ||
neither detects and freezes unwanted dust deposits automatically yet (that is planned), | ||
nor does it allow choosing coins to spend in a positive sense - to spend a specific coin(utxo), | ||
you will have to first disable all other coins in the mixdepth/account. | ||
|
||
This feature is also enabled in the Qt GUI in a new tab labelled "Coins". It's actually easier to use | ||
in the GUI, since you can toggle "frozen/not frozen" statement with a right click menu choice; on | ||
the CLI you will have to go through a menu for each coin you want to freeze. | ||
|
||
The frozen-ness status of individual utxos/coins is of course persisted in the wallet file so it is | ||
remembered between restarts. | ||
|
||
Also, to be clear, "frozen-ness" means: the coin will not be chosen for any transaction, coinjoin | ||
or otherwise. It *will* still be included in balance calculations, and shown in the wallet-tool output. | ||
|
||
`9295673` Basic coin control. | ||
|
||
`bfdf0b2` expand non-empty tree sections in Coins tab | ||
|
||
|
||
### Minor changes | ||
|
||
Several minor changes to the documentation to improve or correct it (thanks to @hyp-hen in particular | ||
for correct the out-of-date MacOS install instructions), and a couple of small bugfixes in Qt GUI workflow. | ||
|
||
`24e7bfe` Fix markup typo in README | ||
|
||
`26e6e15` Minor updates to docs on installation and usage; add segwit donation address to Qt About page. | ||
|
||
`2dd9c06` Update installation instructions for macOS | ||
|
||
`46ce06d` Display GUI error to user when no password entered on wallet load | ||
|
||
`9e2db3c` Don't ask for wallet password if "Cancel" pressed in "Load" dialog | ||
|
||
`5026809` Don't ask for maxcjfee limits when manual order picking is selected | ||
|
||
`b75702e` Correct help, Bitcoin Core wallets aren't supported for some time already | ||
|
||
