Bitcoin ABC version 0.20.4 is now available from:

https://download.bitcoinabc.org/0.20.4/

This release includes the following features and fixes:

  • Minor bug fixes and improvements.
  • New fees field introduced in getrawmempool, getmempoolancestors,
    getmempooldescendants and getmempoolentry when verbosity is set to
    true with sub-fields ancestor, base, modified and descendant
    denominated in BCH. This new field deprecates previous fee fields, such a
    fee, modifiedfee, ancestorfee and descendantfee.

Dynamic creation of wallets

  • Previously, wallets could only be loaded or created at startup, by
    specifying -wallet parameters on the command line or in the bitcoin.conf
    file. It is now possible to create wallets dynamically at runtime:

  • New wallets can be created (and loaded) by calling the createwallet RPC.
    The provided name must not match a wallet file in the walletdir directory
    or the name of a wallet that is currently loaded.

  • This feature is currently only available through the RPC interface.
