    re-ACK dcf0cb4776 per `git diff 9b56a68 dcf0cb4` only change since last review is an update to the release notes which partially picked up the suggested text. Running a node on this branch and addnode-ing to 6 other Tor v3 nodes, I see "addrv2" and "sendaddrv2" messages in getpeerinfo in both the "bytesrecv_per_msg" and "bytessent_per_msg" JSON objects.

    ACK dcf0cb4776
  hebasto:
    re-ACK dcf0cb4776, the node works flawlessly in all of the modes: Tor-only, clearnet-only, mixed.
  laanwj:
    Edit: I have to retract this ACK for now, I'm having some problems with this PR on a FreeBSD node. It drops all outgoing connections with this dcf0cb4776 merged on master (12a1c3ad1a).
  ariard:
    Code Review ACK dcf0cb4

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
