88d4d5ff2f5c71a9a2f4c78c2b2e2fd00568cfee rpc: add help for enumeratesigners and walletdisplayaddress (Sjors Provoost) b0db187e5b30a491c9f95685430a82a1e35e921d ci: use --enable-external-signer instead of --with-boost-process (Sjors Provoost) b54b2e7b1a171203404bd41853372c73f2c64532 Move external signer out of wallet module (Sjors Provoost) Pull request description: In addition, this PR enables external signer testing on CI. This PR moves the ExternalSigner class and RPC methods out of the wallet module. The `enumeratesigners` RPC can be used without a wallet since #21417. With additional modifications external signers could be used without a wallet in general, e.g. via `signrawtransaction`. The `signerdisplayaddress` RPC is ranamed to `walletdisplayaddress` because it requires wallet context. A future `displayaddress` RPC call without wallet context could take a descriptor argument. This commit fixes a `rpc_help.py` failure when configured with `--disable-wallet`.

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.
