1 # Release v0.2.1.1 (9th June 2020)
2
3 Bugfix release. Thanks to everyone who reported the bug and jmacxx who wrote
4 the pull request to fix it. And thanks to everyone who contributed in general
5 to electrum personal server.
6

10 # Release v0.2.1 (4th June 2020)
11
12 New release, thanks to contributions by DriftwoodPalace, m-schmoock and wiredcheetah
13 And thanks to everyone else who contributed via discussion and donations
14
15 * Massive speedup to startup time and initial import of addresses. This is done
16 using the descriptor wallets feature of Bitcoin Core 0.20. The speedup is
17 very helpful when running Electrum Personal Server on low powered devices
18 such as the raspberry pi
19 * Close the connection to client if it requests an unknown address or if the
20 connection to the Bitcoin node is lost. The user will see a red dot in
21 Electrum indicating that something is wrong which should prompt them to fix.
22 * Increase default polling interval to make the server more responsive to new
23 transactions and confirmations
24 * Reduce spam in the debug log and info log
25 * Various other tweaks and bug fixes
26
27 # Release v0.2.0 (5th December 2019)
28
29 New release, thanks to code contributions by suvayu, andrewtoth and Sosthene00
30 And thanks to everyone else who contributed via discussion and donations
31
32 * Implemented tor broadcasting of transactions, which happens by default if tor
33 is running on the same machine.
34 * Also check that the last address of each master public key has been imported,
35 along with the first three.
36 * Add bandwidth usage per day and blockchain size to the server banner
37 * Support using `vsize` instead of `size` for the mempool calculation, which is
38 the correct behaviour for Bitcoin Core 0.19
39 * Allow rescan date to also be passed via CLI args. Wait for any rescanning to
40 finish on startup. This allows Electrum Personal Server to be more easily
41 used with scripting.
42 * Various other bugfixes
43
44 # Release v0.1.7 (26th April 2019)
45
46 New release, thanks to code contributions by suvayu and andrewtoth
47 And thanks to everyone else who contributed via discussion and donations
48
49 * If pruning is enabled and block is not available then send dummy merkle
50 proof, which Electrum will accept if run with the command line
51 flag --skipmerklecheck
52 * Added option to allow broadcasting unconfirmed transactions via any
53 system call, for example it could be a shell script which broadcasts
54 via SMS or radio.
55 * Added option which allows disabling the mempool histogram feature
56 which is useful on low-powered devices when the mempool is large.
57 * Deprecated electrum-personal-server-rescan script in favour of
58 electrum-personal-server --rescan
59 * Releases will now also be packaged as windows binaries using pyinstaller.
