Notable issues and merges on Bitcoin Core, LND and c-lightning.
Originally published by BitcoinOptech
LND #1987:
The NewWitnessAddress
RPC has been removed and the NewAddress
RPC now only
supports generating addresses for P2SH-wrapped P2WKH and native P2WPKH.
C-Lightning #1982:
The invoice
RPC now implements RouteBoost by including a BOLT11 r
parameter in the invoice that provides routing information to the payer for an
already-open channel that has the capacity to support paying the invoice. This
parameter was originally intended to help support private routes, but it can
also be used this way to support nodes that no longer want to accept new
incoming channels. Alternatively, if no available channel can support payment
of the invoice, C-Lightning will emit a warning.
