Updated RPCs
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Due to [BIP 350](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0350.mediawiki)
|
||
|
being implemented, behavior for all RPCs that accept addresses is changed when
|
||
|
a native witness version 1 (or higher) is passed. These now require a Bech32m
|
||
|
encoding instead of a Bech32 one, and Bech32m encoding will be used for such
|
||
|
addresses in RPC output as well. No version 1 addresses should be created
|
||
|
for mainnet until consensus rules are adopted that give them meaning
|
||
|
(e.g. through [BIP 341](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0341.mediawiki)).
|
||
|
Once that happens, Bech32m is expected to be used for them, so this shouldn't
|
||
|
affect any production systems, but may be observed on other networks where such
|
||
|
addresses already have meaning (like signet).
