|
* Fixes a critical bug with imported private keys (issue #1966). Keys
|
|
imported in Electrum 2.7.x were not encrypted, even if the wallet
|
|
had a password. If you imported private keys using Electrum 2.7.x,
|
|
you will need to import those keys again. If you imported keys in
|
|
2.6 and converted with 2.7.x, you don't need to do anything, but
|
|
you still need to upgrade in order to be able to spend.

|
# Release 2.7.0 (Oct 2 2016)
|
|
|
|
* The wallet file format has been upgraded. This upgrade is not
|
|
backward compatible, which means that a wallet upgraded to the 2.7
|
|
format will not be readable by earlier versions of
|
|
Electrum. Multiple accounts inside the same wallet are not
|
|
supported in the new format; the Qt GUI will propose to split any
|
|
wallet that has several accounts. Make sure that you have saved
|
|
your seed phrase before you upgrade Electrum.
|
|
* This version introduces a separation between wallets types and
|
|
keystores types. 'Wallet type' defines the type of Bitcoin contract
|
|
used in the wallet, while 'keystore type' refers to the method used
|
|
to store private keys. Therefore, so-called 'hardware wallets' will
|
|
be referred to as 'hardware keystores'.
|
|
* Hardware keystores:
|
|
- The Ledger Nano S is supported.
|
|
- Hardware keystores can be used as cosigners in multi-signature
|
|
wallets.
|
|
- Multiple hardware cosigners can be used in the same multisig
|
|
wallet. One icon per keystore is displayed in the satus bar. Each
|
|
connected device will co-sign the transaction.
|
|
* Replace-By-Fee: RBF transactions are supported in both Qt and
|
|
Android. A warning is displayed in the history for transactions
|
|
that are replaceable, have unconfirmed parents, or that have very
|
|
low fees.
|
|
* Dynamic fees: Dynamic fees are enabled by default. A slider allows
|
|
the user to select the expected confirmation time of their
|
|
transaction. The expected confirmation times of incoming
|
|
transactions is also displayed in the history.
|
|
* The install wizards of Qt and Kivy have been unified.
|
|
* Qt GUI (Desktop):
|
|
- A fee slider is visible in the in send tab
|
|
- The Address tab is hidden by default, can be shown with Ctrl-A
|
|
- UTXOs are displayed in the Address tab
|
|
* Kivy GUI (Android):
|
|
- The GUI displays the complete transaction history.
|
|
- Multisig wallets are supported.
|
|
- Wallets can be created and deleted in the GUI.
|
|
* Seed phrases can be extended with a user-chosen passphrase. The
|
|
length of seed phrases is standardized to 12 words, using 132 bits
|
|
of entropy (including 2FA seeds). In the wizard, the type of the
|
|
seed is displayed in the seed input dialog.
|
|
* TrustedCoin users can request a reset of their Google Authenticator
|
|
account, if they still have their seed.
|
|
|

|
|
- full device information display
|
|
- initialize a new or wiped device in 4 ways:
|
|
1) device generates a new wallet
|
|
2) you enter a seed
|
|
3) you enter a BIP39 mnemonic to generate the seed
|
|
4) you enter a master private key
|
|
- KeepKey secure seed recovery (KeepKey only)
|
|
- change / set / disable PIN
|
|
- set homescreen (TREZOR only)
|
|
- set a session timeout. Once a session has timed out, further use
|
|
of the device requires your PIN and passhphrase to be re-entered
|
|
- enable / disable passphrases
|
|
- device wipe
|
|
- multiple device support
|

|
# Release 2.5
|
|
* Low-S values are used in signatures (BIP 62).
|
|
* The Kivy GUI has been merged into master.
|
|
* The Qt GUI supports multiple windows in the same process. When a
|
|
new Electrum instance is started, it checks for an already running
|
|
Electrum process, and connects to it.
|
|
* The network layer uses select(), so all server communication is
|
|
handled by a single thread. Moreover, the synchronizer, verifier,
|
|
and exchange rate plugin now run as separate jobs within the
|
|
networking thread instead of as their own threads.
|
|
* Plugins are revamped, particularly the exchange rate plugin.
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.4.4
|
|

* Various GUI improvements
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.4
|
|
* Payment to DNS names storing a Bitcoin addresses (OpenAlias) is
|
|
supported directly, without activating a plugin. The verification
|
|
uses DNSSEC.
|
|
* The DNSSEC verification code was rewritten. The previous code,
|
|
which was part of the OpenAlias plugin, is vulnerable and should
|
|
not be trusted (Electrum 2.0 to 2.3).
|
|
* Payment requests can be signed using Bitcoin addresses stored
|
|
in DNS (OpenAlias). The identity of the requestor is verified using
|
|
DNSSEC.
|
|
* Payment requests signed with OpenAlias keys can be shared as
|
|
bitcoin: URIs, if they are simple (a single address-type
|
|
output). The BIP21 URI scheme is extended with 'name', 'sig',
|
|
'time', 'exp'.
|
|
* Arbitrary m-of-n multisig wallets are supported (n<=15).
|
|
* Multisig transactions can be signed with TREZOR. When you create
|
|
the multisig wallet, just enter the xpub of your existing TREZOR
|
|
wallet.
|
|
* Transaction fees set manually in the GUI are retained, including
|
|
when the user uses the '!' shortcut.
|
|
* New 'email' plugin, that enables sending and receiving payment
|
|
requests by email.
|
|
* The daemon supports Websocket notifications of payments.
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.3.3
|
|
* fix proxy settings (issue #1309)
|
|
* improvements to the transaction dialog:
|
|
- request password after showing transaction
|
|
- show change addresses in yellow color
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.3.2
|
|
* minor bugfixes
|
|
* updated ledger plugin
|
|
* sort inputs/outputs lexicographically (BIP-LI01)
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.3.1
|
|
* patch a bug with payment requests
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.3
|
|
* Improved logic for the network layer.
|
|
* More efficient coin selection. Spend oldest coins first, and
|
|
minimize the number of transaction inputs.
|
|
* Plugins are loaded independently of the GUI. As a result, Openalias,
|
|
TrustedCoin and TREZOR wallets can be used with the command
|
|
line. Example: 'electrum payto <openalias> <amount>'
|
|
* The command line has been refactored:
|
|
- Arguments are parsed with argparse.
|
|
- The inline help includes a description of options.
|
|
- Some commands have been renamed. Notably, 'mktx' and 'payto' have
|
|
been merged into a single command, with a --broadcast option.
|
|
Type 'electrum --help' for a complete overview.
|
|
* The command line accepts the '!' syntax to send the maximum
|
|
amount available. It can be combined with the '--from' option.
|
|
Example: 'payto <destination> ! --from <from_address>'
|
|
* The command line also accepts a '?' shortcut for private keys
|
|
arguments, that triggers a prompt.
|
|
* Payment requests can be managed with the command line, using the
|
|
following commands: 'addrequest', 'rmrequest', 'listrequests'.
|
|
Payment requests can be signed with a SSL certificate, and published
|
|
as bip70 files in a public web directory. To see the relevant
|
|
configuration variables, type 'electrum addrequest --help'
|
|
* Commands can be called with jsonrpc, using the 'jsonrpc' gui. The
|
|
jsonrpc interface may be called by php.
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.2
|
|
* Show amounts (thousands separators and decimal point)
|
|
according to locale in GUI
|
|
* Show unmatured coins in balance
|
|
* Fix exchange rates plugin
|
|
* Network layer: refactoring and fixes
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.1.1
|
|
* patch a bug that prevents new wallet creation.
|
|
* fix connection issue on osx binaries
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.1
|
|
* Faster startup, thanks to the following optimizations:
|
|
1. Transaction input/outputs are cached in the wallet file
|
|
2. Fast X509 certificate parser, not using pyasn1 anymore.
|
|
3. The Label Sync plugin only requests modified labels.
|
|
* The 'Invoices' and 'Send' tabs have been merged.
|
|
* Contacts are stored in a separate file, shared between wallets.
|
|
* A Search Box is available in the GUI (Ctrl-S)
|
|
* Payment requests have an expiration date and can be exported to
|
|
BIP70 files.
|
|
* file: scheme support in BIP72 URIs: "bitcoin:?r=file:///..."
|
|
* Own addresses are shown in green in the Transaction dialog.
|
|
* Address History dialog.
|
|
* The OpenAlias plugin was improved.
|
|
* Various bug fixes and GUI improvements.
|
|
* A new LabelSync backend is being used an import of the old
|
|
database was made but since the release came later it's
|
|
recommended that you do a full push when you upgrade.
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.0.4 - Minor GUI improvements
|
|
* The password dialog will ask for password again if the user enters
|
|
a wrong password
|
|
* The Master Public Key dialog displays which keys belong to the
|
|
wallet, and which are cosigners
|
|
* The transaction dialog will ask to save unsaved transaction
|
|
received from cosigner pool, when user clicks on 'Close'
|
|
* The multisig restore dialog accepts xprv keys.
|
|
* The network daemon must be started explicitly before using commands
|
|
that require a connection
|
|
Example:
|
|
electrum daemon start
|
|
electrum getaddressunspent <addr>
|
|
electrum daemon status
|
|
electrum daemon stop
|
|
If a daemon is running, the GUI will use it.
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.0.3 - bugfixes and minor GUI improvements
|
|
* Do not use daemon threads (fix #960)
|
|
* Add a zoom button to receive tab
|
|
* Add exchange rate conversion to receive tab
|
|
* Use Tor's default port number in default proxy config
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.0.2 - bugfixes
|
|
* Fix transaction sweep (#1066)
|
|
* Fix thread timing bug (#1054)
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.0.1 - bugfixes
|
|
* Fix critical bug in TREZOR address derivation: passphrases were not
|
|
NFKD normalized. TREZOR users who created a wallet protected by a
|
|
passphrase containing utf-8 characters with diacritics are
|
|
affected. These users will have to open their wallet with version
|
|
2.0 and to move their funds to a new wallet.
|
|
* Use a file socket for the daemon (fixes network dialog issues)
|
|
* Fix crash caused by QR scanner icon when zbar not installed.
|
|
* Fix CosignerPool plugin
|
|
* Label Sync plugin: Fix label sharing between multisig wallets
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Release 2.0
|
|
|
|
* Before you upgrade, make sure you have saved your wallet seed on
|
|
paper.
|
|
|
|
* Documentation is now hosted on a wiki: http://electrum.orain.org
|
|
|
|
* New seed derivation method (not compatible with BIP39). The seed
|
|
phrase includes a version number, that refers to the wallet
|
|
structure. The version number also serves as a checksum, and it
|
|
will prevent the import of seeds from incompatible wallets. Old
|
|
Electrum seeds are still supported.
|
|
|
|
* New address derivation (BIP32). Standard wallets are single account
|
|
and use a gap limit of 20.
|
|
|
|
* Support for Multisig wallets using parallel BIP32 derivations and
|
|
P2SH addresses ("2 of 2", "2 of 3").
|
|
|
|
* Compact serialization format for unsigned or partially signed
|
|
transactions, that includes the BIP32 master public key and
|
|
derivation needed to sign inputs. Serialized transactions can be
|
|
sent to cosigners or to cold storage using QR codes (using Andreas
|
|
Schildbach's base 43 idea).
|
|
|
|
* Support for BIP70 payment requests:
|
|
- Verification of the chain of signatures uses tlslite.
|
|
- In the GUI, payment requests are shown in the 'Invoices' tab.
|
|
|
|
* Support for hardware wallets: TREZOR (SatoshiLabs) and Btchip (Ledger).
|
|
|
|
* Two-factor authentication service by TrustedCoin. This service uses
|
|
"2 of 3" multisig wallets and Google Authenticator. Note that
|
|
wallets protected by this service can be deterministically restored
|
|
from seed, without Trustedcoin's server.
|
|
|
|
* Cosigner Pool plugin: encrypted communication channel for multisig
|
|
wallets, to send and receive partially signed transactions.
|
|
|
|
* Audio Modem plugin: send and receive transactions by sound.
|
|
|
|
* OpenAlias plugin: send bitcoins to aliases verified using DNSSEC.
|
|
|
|
* New 'Receive' tab in the GUI:
|
|
- create and manage payment requests, with QR Codes
|
|
- the former 'Receive' tab was renamed to 'Addresses'
|
|
- the former Point of Sale plugin is replaced by a resizeable
|
|
window that pops up if you click on the QR code
|
|
|
|
* The 'Send' tab in the Qt GUI supports transactions with multiple
|
|
outputs, and raw hexadecimal scripts.
|
|
|
|
* The GUI can connect to the Electrum daemon: "electrum -d" will
|
|
start the daemon if it is not already running, and the GUI will
|
|
connect to it. The daemon can serve several clients. It times out
|
|
if no client uses if for more than 5 minutes.
|
|
|
|
* The install wizard can be used to import addresses or private
|
|
keys. A watching-only wallet is created by entering a list of
|
|
addresses in the wizard dialog.
|
|
|
|
* New file format: Wallets files are saved as JSON. Note that new
|
|
wallet files cannot be read by older versions of Electrum. Old
|
|
wallet files will be converted to the new format; this operation
|
|
may take some time, because public keys will be derived for each
|
|
address of your wallet.
|
|
|
|
* The client accepts servers with a CA-signed SSL certificate.
|
|
|
|
* ECIES encrypt/decrypt methods, availabe in the GUI and using
|
|
the command line:
|
|
encrypt <pubkey> <message>
|
|
decrypt <pubkey> <message>
|
|
|
|
* The Android GUI has received various updates and it is much more
|
|
stable. Another script was added to Android, called Authenticator,
|
|
that works completely offline: it reads an unsigned transaction
|
|
shown as QR code, signs it and shows the result as a QR code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Release 1.9.8
|
|
|
|
* Electrum servers were upgraded to version 0.9. The new server stores
|
|
a Patrica tree of all UTXOs, an idea proposed by Alan Reiner in the
|
|
bitcointalk forum. This property allows the client to directly
|
|
request the balance of any address. The new commands are:
|
|
1. getaddressbalance <address>
|
|
2. getaddressunspent <address>
|
|
3. getutxoaddress <txid> <pos>
|
|
|
|
* Command-line commands that require a connection to the network spawn
|
|
a daemon, that remains connected and handles subsequent
|
|
commands. The daemon terminates itself if it remains unused for more
|
|
than one minute. The purpose of this is to make scripting more
|
|
efficient. For example, a bash script using many electrum commands
|
|
will open only one connection.
|
|
|
|
# Release 1.9.7

|
# Release 1.7.2:
|
|
|
|
* Transactions that are in the same block are displayed in chronological order in the history.
|
|
* The client computes transaction priority and rejects zero-fee transactions that need a fee.

|
|
* Due to an internal format change, your history may be pruned when
|
|
you open your wallet for the first time after upgrading to 1.7.2. If
|
|
this is the case, please visit a full server to restore your full
|
|
history. You will only need to do that once.

# Release 1.7.1: bugfixes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Release 1.7
|
|
|
|
* The Classic GUI can be extended with plugins. Developers who want to
|
|
add new features or third-party services to Electrum are invited to
|
|
write plugins. Some previously existing and non-essential features of
|
|
Electrum (point-of-sale mode, qrcode scanner) were removed from the
|
|
core and are now available as plugins.
|
|
|
|
* The wallet waits for 2 confirmations before creating new
|
|
addresses. This makes recovery from seed more robust. Note that it
|
|
might create unwanted gaps if you use Electrum 1.7 together with older
|
|
versions of Electrum.
|
|
|
|
* An interactive Python console replaces the 'Wall' tab. The provided
|
|
python environment gives users access to the wallet and gui. Most
|
|
electrum commands are available as python function in the
|
|
console. Custom scripts an be loaded with a "run(filename)"
|
|
command. Tab-completions are available.
|
|
|
|
* The location of the Electrum folder in Windows changed from
|
|
LOCALAPPDATA to APPDATA. Discussion on this topic can be found here:
|
|
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=144575.0
|
|
|
|
* Private keys can be exported from within the classic GUI:
|
|
For a single address, use the address menu (right-click).
|
|
To export the keys of your entire wallet, use the settings dialog (import/export tab).
|
|
|
|
* It is possible to create, sign and redeem multisig transaction using the
|
|
command line interface. This is made possible by the following new commands:
|
|
dumpprivkey, listunspent, createmultisig, createrawtransaction, decoderawtransaction, signrawtransaction
|
|
The syntax of these commands is similar to their bitcoind counterpart.
|
|
For an example, see Gavin's tutorial: https://gist.github.com/gavinandresen/3966071
|
|
|
|
* Offline wallets now work in a way similar to Armory:
|
|
1. user creates an unsigned transaction using the online (watching-only) wallet.
|
|
2. unsigned transaction is copied to the offline computer, and signed by the offline wallet.
|
|
3. signed transaction is copied to the online computer, broadcasted by the online client.
|
|
4. All these steps can be done via the command line interface or the classic GUI.
|
|
|
|
* Many command line commands have been renamed in order to make the syntax consistent with bitcoind.
