Version 1.14.5, aka segwit2x Production Release, has been released.

Release cycle

Per normal software engineering practice, we keep making Release Candidates until the software is ready for production release, at which point the most recent RC becomes the production release.

This is more than one would like to see in an RC. However, it is not anticipated that any more notable changes will occur, and that RC2 will become final (pending any fixes for bugs found in testing, if any).

Release notes

  1. Advertise NODE_SEGWIT2X to peers and DNS seeds via a service flag in the p2p network protocol. Additionally, btc1 clients will preferentially peer with segwit2x and segwit nodes. The prefpeering option - default:on - is added in case admins wish to disable preferential peering. Journey began with issue #42

  2. Merge Bitcoin Core 0.14.2, to import fixes from the latest BC point release. Nothing notable.

  3. Miners should use the default BIP9 feature signaling - 0x20000012 - to ensure their blocks are not orphaned when BIP91 enforcement becomes active this weekend.
