Unreleased (see master)
- Fixed fee calculation when ``combine=False`
- Breaking: Exceptions will now be raised when using pay2sh addresses (until implemented)
- Removed
blockr.io
network backend as Coinbase has shut it down.
- Changed elliptic curve backend from OpenSSL to libsecp256k1. This results in an order of magnitude faster key creation and signing/verifying.
- Improved performance of base58 encoding/decoding.
- Breaking: Dropped support for Python 3.3 & 3.4.
- Breaking: :func:`~bit.verify_sig` now returns
False
for invalid signatures instead of raising an exception. Also,strict
is no longer a parameter as BIP-62 compliance is now required.
- Fixed :ref:`cold storage <coldstorage>` workflow.
- Improved performance of private key instantiation.
- Implemented a way to use private keys in :ref:`cold storage <coldstorage>`.
- Changed the default timeout of services from 5 to 10 seconds.
- Fixed network service redundancy by failing if response code is not 200.
- Improved stability of network tests.
- Added :func:`~bit.verify_sig`.
- Refactored crypto to yield over an order of magnitude faster hashing.
- Initial release.
