We are upgrading our Bitcoin Cash Mainnet & Testnet infrastructure to Bitcoin Cash Node v29.1.0.
This minor release delivers RPC improvements and performance optimizations, including expanded RPC method outputs, new REST API endpoints for spent transaction outputs, and increased default RPC thread and work queue limits for better throughput.
During the maintenance window, brief interruptions to RPC availability may occur.
RPC Changes: - getmempoolinfo — Results now include a new key, total_fee, representing the sum of all fees paid by transactions currently in the mempool (in BCH). - testmempoolaccept — Returns expanded information in JSON object results; consult RPC help for details on new fields. - gettxout — New optional 4th parameter, patterns (boolean); when set to true, results include a new byteCodePatterns JSON object. - getchaintxstats — Results now include a new key, window_final_block_height. REST API — Two new endpoints introduced: /rest/spenttxouts/. and /rest/spenttxouts/withpatterns/. for efficiently fetching spent transaction outputs using block undo data.
