2e249b922762f19d6ae61edaad062f31bc2849f3 doc: add release note for PR #28414 (Matthew Zipkin) 4614332fc4514f63fcbe9e6de507f7bb9b7e87e9 test: remove unnecessary finalizepsbt rpc calls (ismaelsadeeq) e3d484b603abff69c6ebfca5cfb78cf82743d090 wallet rpc: return final tx hex from walletprocesspsbt if complete (Matthew Zipkin) Pull request description: See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28363#discussion_r1315753887 `walletprocesspsbt` currently returns a base64-encoded PSBT and a boolean indicating if the tx is "complete". If it is complete, the base64 PSBT can be finalized with `finalizepsbt` which returns the hex-encoded transaction suitable for `sendrawtransaction`. With this patch, `walletprocesspsbt` return object will ALSO include the broadcast-able hex string if the tx is already final. This saves users the extra step of calling `finalizepsbt` assuming they have already inspected and approve the transaction from earlier steps.

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.
