Bitcoin Classic Announces version 1.3.5
Release Announcement Bitcoin Classic 1.3.5
August 22st, 2017.
Bitcoin Classic updates the 1.3 version with various bugfixes. Most important a fix the issue that some people saw their node getting 'stuck' syncing a week or so in the past.
After the successful creation of Bitcoin Cash we proudly present the stable, most user friendly Bitcoin full node that allows you to choose the Bitcoin you want.
- Full Bitcoin Cash support, using the UAHF name. A special download is available.
- Ability to automatically migrate and separate out the Bitcoin Cash data from the traditional chain.
This allows users to run two nodes, each following a different chain. - Faster re-connecting to Bitcoin Cash capable nodes by remembering which nodes support it.
- Full zero-fee transaction support. From relay for others as well as creation in the wallet and mining.
Would the whole network run Classic, it would work today. Unfortunately other clients are not supporting this yet. - Much improved log-file support. Including runtime reloading of config-file using SIGHUP.
This client is fully compatible with the Bitcoin Cash spin-off from Bitcoin, users can download a specific UAHF version that automatically follows the UAHF chain, or manually add theuahf=true config option to enable it.
