Python 3.8 is EOL since October 2024: https://devguide.python.org/versions/

I'm also not aware of any supported OS using python 3.8. Python 3.8 is also holding back quite a few package upgrades where most of them start support at 3.9

Ubuntu starts at 3.10: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python3&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
Debian old stable starts at 3.9: https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python3&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

I've also started a PR in CLN: ElementsProject/lightning#8349

@daywalker90 daywalker90 changed the title python: upgrade minimum python version to 3.9 and latest to 3.13 python: upgrade minimum python version to 3.9 Jun 11, 2025
