How to Upgrade
==============
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has
completely
shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the
installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on
macOS)
or `bitcoind`/`bitcoin-qt` (on Linux).
Upgrading directly from a version of Bitcoin Core that has reached its
EOL is
possible, but it might take some time if the data directory needs to be
migrated. Old
wallet versions of Bitcoin Core are generally supported.
Running Bitcoin Core binaries on macOS requires self signing.
```
cd /path/to/bitcoin-28.x/bin
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine bitcoin-cli bitcoin-qt bitcoin-tx
bitcoin-util bitcoin-wallet bitcoind test_bitcoin
codesign -s - bitcoin-cli bitcoin-qt bitcoin-tx bitcoin-util
bitcoin-wallet bitcoind test_bitcoin
```
Compatibility
==============
Bitcoin Core is supported and extensively tested on operating systems
using the Linux Kernel 3.17+, macOS 11.0+, and Windows 7 and newer. Bitcoin
Core should also work on most other UNIX-like systems but is not as
frequently tested on them. It is not recommended to use Bitcoin Core on
unsupported systems.
Notable changes
===============
### P2P
- When the `-port` configuration option is used, the default onion
listening port will now
be derived to be that port + 1 instead of being set to a fixed value
(8334 on mainnet).
This re-allows setups with multiple local nodes using different
`-port` and not using `-bind`,
which would lead to a startup failure in v28.0 due to a port collision.
Note that a `HiddenServicePort` manually configured in `torrc` may
need adjustment if used in
connection with the `-port` option.
For example, if you are using `-port=5555` with a non-standard value
and not using `-bind=...=onion`,
previously Bitcoin Core would listen for incoming Tor connections on
`127.0.0.1:8334`.
Now it would listen on `127.0.0.1:5556` (`-port` plus one). If you
configured the hidden service manually
in torrc now you have to change it from `HiddenServicePort 8333
127.0.0.1:8334` to `HiddenServicePort 8333
127.0.0.1:5556`, or configure bitcoind with
`-bind=127.0.0.1:8334=onion` to get the previous behavior.
