Otherwise, it's possible that a parent is not IsTrusted but a child is. If a parent is not trusted, then a child should not be either. This recursive scan can be a little expensive, so ~it might be beneficial to have a way of caching IsTrusted state, but this is a little complex because various conditions can change between calls to IsTrusted (e.g., re-org).~ I added a cache which works per call/across calls, but does not store the results semi-permanently. Which reduces DoS risk of this change. There is no risk of untrusted parents causing a resource exploitation, as we immediately return once that is detected. This is a change that came up as a bug-fix esque change while working on OP_SECURETHEBAG. You can see the branch where this change is important here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/compare/master...JeremyRubin:stb-with-rpc?expand=1. Essentially, without this change, we can be tricked into accepting an OP_SECURETHEBAG output because we don't properly check the parents. As this was a change which, on its own, was not dependent on OP_SECURETHEBAG, I broke it out as I felt the change stands on its own by fixing a long standing wallet bug. The test wallet_balance.py has been corrected to meet the new behavior. The below comment, reproduced, explains what the issue is and the edge cases that can arise before this change. # Before `test_balance()`, we have had two nodes with a balance of 50 # each and then we: # # 1) Sent 40 from node A to node B with fee 0.01 # 2) Sent 60 from node B to node A with fee 0.01 # # Then we check the balances: # # 1) As is # 2) With transaction 2 from above with 2x the fee # # Prior to #16766, in this situation, the node would immediately report # a balance of 30 on node B as unconfirmed and trusted. # # After #16766, we show that balance as unconfirmed. # # The balance is indeed "trusted" and "confirmed" insofar as removing # the mempool transactions would return at least that much money. But # the algorithm after #16766 marks it as unconfirmed because the 'taint' # tracking of transaction trust for summing balances doesn't consider # which inputs belong to a user. In this case, the change output in # question could be "destroyed" by replace the 1st transaction above. # # The post #16766 behavior is correct; we shouldn't be treating those # funds as confirmed. If you want to rely on that specific UTXO existing # which has given you that balance, you cannot, as a third party # spending the other input would destroy that unconfirmed. # # For example, if the test transactions were: # # 1) Sent 40 from node A to node B with fee 0.01 # 2) Sent 10 from node B to node A with fee 0.01 # # Then our node would report a confirmed balance of 40 + 50 - 10 = 80 # BTC, which is more than would be available if transaction 1 were # replaced. The release notes have been updated to note the new behavior. ACKs for top commit: ariard: Code Review ACK 4671fc3, maybe extend DoS protection in a follow-up PR. fjahr: Code review ACK 4671fc3d9e669da8b8781f0cbefee43cb9acd527 ryanofsky: Code review ACK 4671fc3d9e669da8b8781f0cbefee43cb9acd527. Changes since last review: 2 new commits adding suggested release note and python test comment, also a clean rebase with no changes to the earlier commits. The PR description is more comprehensive now, too. Looks good! promag: Code review ACK 4671fc3d9e669da8b8781f0cbefee43cb9acd527.

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 a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day 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) orbin/bitcoind(headless)
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.
