Today on Bitcoin This Week we discuss the release of the version of Bitcoin Core, we discuss the comments made by Tom Lee in regards to the recent drop in prices due to Bitcoin Futures expiring and more.
Bitcoin Core Version 0.16.1 Released
Four months on from the last Bitcoin Core release, sees the announcement of another minor release, Version 0.16.1, which promises bug fixes, better translations and generally improved performance. An important development is that wallets created in either this new version or its immediate predecessor, will no longer be compatible with older versions. It’s hoped that the latest version will reduce block bloat and promote adoption of Segwit Bech32.
Detailed instructions on how to upgrade can be found on [bitcoincore.org|http://bitcoincore.org], with the team behind the upgrade welcoming bug reports and questions, as always, on GitHub.
