This release includes the following features and fixes:

• Minor bug fixes and improvements.
• New fees field introduced in getrawmempool, getmempoolancestors, getmempooldescendants and getmempoolentry when verbosity is set to true with sub-fields ancestor, base, modified and descendant denominated in BCH. This new field deprecates previous fee fields, such a fee, modifiedfee, ancestorfee and descendantfee.

Dynamic creation of wallets

• Previously, wallets could only be loaded or created at startup, by specifying -wallet parameters on the command line or in the bitcoin.conf file. It is now possible to create wallets dynamically at runtime:

• New wallets can be created (and loaded) by calling the createwallet RPC. The provided name must not match a wallet file in the walletdir directory or the name of a wallet that is currently loaded.

• This feature is currently only available through the RPC interface.
