Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

Upgrading

To upgrade:

Reminder: always back up and recreate your joinmarket.cfg file when doing the upgrade; this is to make sure you have the new default settings. In order to recreate it, rename the old joinmarket.cfg and run 'python3 wallet-tool.py generate' from the scripts folder.

(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.7.0 please read the "Upgrading" section in the 0.7.0 release notes.)

(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.9.0 please read the release notes to find out how about fidelity bonds are relevant to your use-case).

First run the install.sh script as mentioned in the README. When prompted to overwrite the directory jmvenv, accept.

Note that ./install.sh -? will show the options for installation.

Changes

Removal of Python 3.7 support, 3.8 or newer is required now

Python 3.7 has been end of-life since June 2023 and it was a blocker for some necessary dependency updates.

Note that currently only Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 and 3.11 are supported, not Python 3.12 and newer.

  • 7e045c9 Requires Python <3.12
  • 3d56837 Remove unnecessary check for Python 3.7+
  • 204f117 Drop Python 3.7 support

Move to modern packaging and source layout

  • c8eef50 Migrate to modern packaging and src layout

Performance improvements

Lots of performance improvements made in wallet code that makes big impact especially with old wallets, with a lots of transaction history (in extreme cases, the time needed for some operations was improved from 40+ minutes to around 10 seconds). When syncing a heavily used wallet from a seed phrase on a new Bitcoin Core instance, now larger gap limit (-g) can be used and it will take far less time than it did before.

This involves caching some computed data in the wallet, in case a bug is discovered with this, a new configuration option wallet_caching_disabled is added to joinmarket.cfg, which allows to disable it when syncing the wallet.

As part of performance improvements are done by caching some data in wallet file (still encrypted), *.jmdat files will grow larger than before.

  • 48aec83 wallet: remove a dead store in get_index_cache_and_increment
  • 8245271 wallet: avoid IndexError in _is_my_bip32_path
  • 574c29e wallet: hoist get_script_from_path default impl into BaseWallet
  • 2c38a81 wallet: delete redundant get_script and get_addr methods
  • b58ac67 wallet: drop _get_addr_int_ext; replace with calls to get_new_addr
  • fc1e000 wallet_showutxos: use O(1) check for frozen instead of O(n)
  • 184d76f wallet: add get_{balance,utxos}_at_mixdepth methods
  • 77f0194 wallet_utils: use new get_utxos_at_mixdepth method
  • 64f18bc get_imported_privkey_branch: use O(m+n) algorithm instead of O(m*n)
  • 01ec2a4 wallet: add _addr_map, paralleling _script_map
  • 5bc7eb4 wallet: add persistent cache, mapping path->(priv, pub, script, addr)
  • c3c10f1 wallet: implement optional cache validation
  • ef1d76e Allow cache purging at wallet initialization
  • f2ae8ab Don't validate cache during initial sync.
  • 8491431 cache deserialized form of txs in history method
  • fab97a0 Use get_deser_from_gettransaction() everywhere

Drop official support for 32-bit platforms

It should still work, but you might need Rust compiler installed for install.sh to succeed. It was necessary for newer versions of cryptography Python package. See https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver/issues/1454 and https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver/pull/1579.

Wallet RPC API improvements and fixes

  • a847df9 Patch #1480: call get_POST_body once
  • af9f462 fix(docs): remove duplicate keys in wallet-rpc.md
  • ef29982 remove bearer authentication errors
  • c88429d JWT authority fixes
  • 638200d feat(rpc): add block height to session response
  • d8f1fc4 Add optional txfee property for direct-send wallet RPC
  • ab1481d RPC API: Add optional txfee property for single joins

Removal of convert_old_wallet.py script

It was broken and old format wallets for conversion of which it was used aren't created by JoinMarket since v0.4.0 six years ago. If anybody still needs to do that conversion, some older JoinMarket release can be used.

  • d89dcde Remove convert_old_wallet.py script

Code quality improvements

  • 3fc74fb Refactor and cleanup of blockchaininterface and related
  • 3e71df5 Fix ShellCheck warnings

  • c4414e8 Minor quality improvements in wallet code

Bugfixes and other minor changes

  • 47bc77f Fix some internal dependencies
  • 83d7ebb Log in case JM loads RPC wallet at startup
  • 438cb41 Replace readfp()

  • cde6b4c Fix no amount entered message (can be sats too, not only BTC)

Documentation

Most important - Bitcoin Core v26 has dropped legacy wallet support by default, but JoinMarket still doesn't support new descriptor wallets. So documentation was changed to note users that Core should be started with deprecatedrpc=create_bdb configuration parameter for JM to work.
