zend v4.2.0-rc1

4.2.0-rc1 is a Testnet pre-release candidate in anticipation of the release of ZEN 4.2.0 to Mainnet later next February 2024.

A hard fork is going to activate on Testnet at block #1396500, on January 3rd 2024 at approximately 12:00 PM UTC.

Important Notes

  • PR #624 is a follow-up in the gradual path of shielded pool deprecation, it introduces a hard fork requiring the unshielding of private funds to target only script addresses. After the hard fork, unshielding to P2PKH addresses or to P2PK addresses will not be allowed. For this reason, the following RPC commands have been (partially) deprecated: z_sendmany and z_mergetoaddress (check inline documentation for additional details).

New Features and Improvements

  • Unshielding to script addresses only: a hard-fork is introduced which results in unshielding txs to target only P2SH addresses #624

Minor Changes

  • Grammatical and punctuation corrections #625
