Compatibility

Bitcoin Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using the Linux kernel, macOS 10.8+, and Windows Vista and later.

Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on April 8th, 2014. No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP, you can still do so at your own risk but be aware that there are known instabilities. Please do not report issues about Windows XP to the issue tracker.

Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not frequently tested on them.

Notable changes

Low-level RPC changes

  • The new database model no longer stores information about transaction versions of unspent outputs. This means that:

    • The gettxout RPC no longer has a version field in the response.
    • The gettxoutsetinfo RPC reports hash_serialized_2 instead of hash_serialized, which does not commit to the transaction versions of unspent outputs, but does commit to the height and coinbase information.
    • The getutxos REST path no longer reports the txvers field in JSON format, and always reports 0 for transaction versions in the binary format

  • Error codes have been updated to be more accurate for the following error cases:

    • getblock now returns RPC_MISC_ERROR if the block can't be found on disk (for example if the block has been pruned). Previously returned RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    • pruneblockchain now returns RPC_MISC_ERROR if the blocks cannot be pruned because the node is not in pruned mode. Previously returned RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND.
    • pruneblockchain now returns RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER if the blocks cannot be pruned because the supplied timestamp is too late. Previously returned RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    • pruneblockchain now returns RPC_MISC_ERROR if the blocks cannot be pruned because the blockchain is too short. Previously returned RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    • setban now returns RPC_CLIENT_INVALID_IP_OR_SUBNET if the supplied IP address or subnet is invalid. Previously returned RPC_CLIENT_NODE_ALREADY_ADDED.
    • setban now returns RPC_CLIENT_INVALID_IP_OR_SUBNET if the user tries to unban a node that has not previously been banned. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • removeprunedfunds now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if bitcoind is unable to remove the transaction. Previously returned RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    • removeprunedfunds now returns RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER if the transaction does not exist in the wallet. Previously returned RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    • fundrawtransaction now returns RPC_INVALID_ADDRESS_OR_KEY if an invalid change address is provided. Previously returned RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER.
    • fundrawtransaction now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if bitcoind is unable to create the transaction. The error message provides further details. Previously returned RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER if the provided transaction has descendants in the wallet. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER if the provided transaction has descendants in the mempool. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the provided transaction has has been mined or conflicts with a mined transaction. Previously returned RPC_INVALID_ADDRESS_OR_KEY.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the provided transaction is not BIP 125 replaceable. Previously returned RPC_INVALID_ADDRESS_OR_KEY.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the provided transaction has already been bumped by a different transaction. Previously returned RPC_INVALID_REQUEST.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the provided transaction contains inputs which don't belong to this wallet. Previously returned RPC_INVALID_ADDRESS_OR_KEY.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the provided transaction has multiple change outputs. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the provided transaction has no change output. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the fee is too high. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the fee is too low. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
    • bumpfee now returns RPC_WALLET_ERROR if the change output is too small to bump the fee. Previously returned RPC_MISC_ERROR.
