Mike Schmidt(@bitschmidty):Bitcoin Core v32.1: a deeper look First, why no 32.0? It was tagged on October 21 but never fully announced or released. A remotely triggerable TCP crash was reported on October 23 and 32.1 shipped on October 27 (yesterday) with that fix and two others. I'll dig into the security updates, but this release also represents months of testing, maintenance, and work to make Bitcoin easier to verify and use. What went into these v32.1 changes and what do Bitcoin users get from them?
