This release contains some pretty heavy refactoring to make it easier to develop going forward. Specifically:
-
Previously it was using a fork of btcd for Bitcoin Cash. Instead I've created a separate bchutil repo which contains only the bare minimum Bitcoin Cash code changes. This allows us to use stock btcd and avoid having to maintain a fork.
-
The wallet interface has been refactor to make it easy to plug the library into OpenBazaar
-
It's using the new network magic which means it will only connect to ABC 0.15 nodes. This could create spotty network coverage until more nodes update (though I haven't personally experienced this).

btc --> bch
