This release includes the following features and fixes:

GUI changes

  • Wallets loaded dynamically through the RPC interface may now be displayed in the bitcoin-qt GUI.
  • The default wallet will now be labeled [default wallet] in the bitcoin-qt GUI if no name is provided by the -wallet option on start up.
  • Wallets dynamically unloaded will now be reflected in the gui.
  • Block storage can be limited under Preferences, in the Main tab. Undoing this setting requires downloading the full blockchain again. This mode is incompatible with -txindex and -rescan.
