Bitcoin Core version v30.4 is now available from:<br /><br />  &lt;https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-30.4/&gt;<br /><br />This release includes various bug fixes and performance<br />improvements, as well as updated translations.<br /><br />Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub:<br /><br />  &lt;https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues&gt;<br /><br />To receive security and update notifications, please subscribe to:<br /><br />  &lt;https://bitcoincore.org/en/list/announcements/join/&gt;<br /><br />How to Upgrade<br />==============<br /><br />If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely<br />shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the<br />installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on macOS)<br />or `bin/` and `libexec/` (on Linux).<br /><br />Upgrading directly from a version of Bitcoin Core that has reached its EOL is<br />possible, but it might take some time if the data directory needs to be migrated. Old<br />wallet versions of Bitcoin Core are generally supported.<br /><br />Compatibility<br />==============<br /><br />Bitcoin Core is supported and tested on operating systems using the<br />Linux Kernel 3.17+, macOS 13+, and Windows 10+. Bitcoin<br />Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not as<br />frequently tested on them. It is not recommended to use Bitcoin Core on<br />unsupported systems.<br /><br />Notable changes<br />===============<br /><br />- BIP 9 bits 5 to 28 inclusive are now ignored for soft fork signaling, as per<br />  BIP 323. We won't warn about unknown deployments when receiving blocks that<br />  set any of those bits in their version.
