Hope this upgrade will meet the expectations of every need, not that in few months there will be another upgrade. My opinion though...
They haven't solved this issue yet?have they. It still too slow to open and litle bit slower to verify blocks.it is the most secure one, but probably regelar user can't use this program as a wallet for daily use.

Great news. New features, fixes and improvements coming so often these days. How can we track the progress of this release and get some ideas as to when these features can come into effect?

Thank you for the news about the release!

As I understand from the text, upgrading to 0.12.1 is not mandatory, but highly recommended due to bug fixes, updated translations and softwork. However, the fact also is advised to be considered that the new release is not compatible backward with < 0.12.0 versions, which means if you have any software that uses < 0.12.0, you should be extra cautious with the update and do not just update blindly!

Good luck to you!

Is it me or this new version came out fast then the usual updates ?
The minor versions do not come out on a fixed schedule. They come out when there are urgent bug fixes or when a soft fork is ready to begin deployment. The major releases come out every 6 months or so. The next major release (0.13) is coming out very soon. The first release candidate has already been released, with the official version scheduled for August 1st.

anyone know when the "Segregated Witness" thing is going to happen btw ? I know that something is supposed to happen this April and the block thing on next year ?
It will happen after 0.13, in 0.13.1, and probably 0.12.2 as well. The release of it is still TBD.

I'm hoping they fix the library file (or whatever it was) with the next version that makes it so core doesn't run on XP any more.

work good ...

1) need restarter app to maintain the process online : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12386392


2) need to kill process every 24h to maintain the 24h/24 pressure on the P2Pool server, too (always core problem, but with restriction of the mempool, work good now).

v0.13 planned ?
I see new nodes with 0.12.99 and v70013 protocol version here ...  Wink

I wouldn't count on it. The exact issue was never identified; it was simply theorized that it could be related to Qt, but no one is sure of it. 0.13 will upgrade to a newer Qt version, but it is not guaranteed to work with XP. In any case, support for XP has officially ended: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8240.

Is this new realease of Bitcoin core a mandatory update? Will my Bitcoin send transactions still go through if I do not update to this new software?
It is not mandatory and you can still send Bitcoin without upgrading. However it is recommended that you do upgrade as it has several bug fixes and a soft fork.

I'm not sure how this "community support" is calculated exactly?

That's an interesting question!

For sure it's not "calculated" by talking to 4 miners and a few companys, create a timeline and then tell everyone else to suck it.


Its better not to listen to ideas of people who have no or less knowledge on that matter. You know calculation is very important so its better if you consult technical personnel regarding that matter. hope this helps
