Adds a new `witnessscript` parameter which must be used for the witness scripts in the relevant situations. Also includes some tests for the various import types. ~Also makes the change in #14019 redundant, but cherry-picks the test from that PR to test the behavior (@achow101).~ Fixes #12253, also addresses the second point in #12703, and fixes #14407 Tree-SHA512: 775a755c524d1c387a99acddd772f677d2073876b72403dcfb92c59f9b405ae13ceedcf4dbd2ee1d7a8db91c494f67ca137161032ee3a2071282eeb411be090a
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.
