Pull request description:

  Prerequisite to #35404 and #35405.

  All these changes address the points raised in the review of PR #34917
  here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/34917#pullrequestreview-4362148900.

  Essentially updating the existing wallet functional tests without using
  the -deprecatedrpc=bip125 and -walletrbf startup options. Instead,
  these two are added and tested via a singular new
  wallet_deprecated_rbf.py test that can be removed easily later when
  these startup options are completely removed from the wallet post
  deprecation.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires several hundred gigabytes or more of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to several days or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)
  • bin/bitcoin (wrapper command)

The bitcoin command supports subcommands like bitcoin gui, bitcoin node, and bitcoin rpc exposing different functionality. Subcommands can be listed with bitcoin help.

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
