Pull request description:

  As described in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/20620 multisigs are currently limited to 16 keys in descriptors and RPC helpers, even for P2WSH and P2SH-P2WSH.

  This adds support for multisig with up to 20 keys (which are already standard) for Segwit v0 context for descriptors (`wsh()`, `sh(wsh())`) and RPC helpers.

  Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/20620

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) or
  • bin/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.
