# Release 4.1.0 - Kangaroo (March 30, 2021)

This version is our second major release with support for the
Lightning Network. While our initial Lightning release was mostly
about implementing the protocol, this release brings features that are
specifically aimed at keeping Electrum lightweight and trustless,
while avoiding single points of failure. Most of the features listed
below are user-visible.
 * The wallet creation wizard no longer asks for a seed type, and
   creates segwit wallets with bech32 addresses. Older seed types can
   still be created with the command line.
 * Paid invoices (both incoming and outgoing) are automatically
   removed from the send/receive lists of the GUI (one confirmation is
   needed for onchain invoices). Once removed from the list, invoice
   details can still be accessed from the transaction history. In Qt,
   invoice lists have been renamed to 'Sending queue' and 'Receiving
   queue'.
 * Lightning:
    - recoverable channels (see below)
    - trampoline payments (see below)
    - support multi-part-payment
    - support upfront-shutdown-script
 * Recoverable channels (option):
   - Recovery data is added to the channel funding transaction using
     an OP_RETURN. This makes it possible to recover a static backup
     of the channel from the wallet seed. Please note that static
     backups only allow users to request a force-close of the channel
     with the remote node, so that funds not locked in HTLCs can be
     recovered. This assumes that the remote node is still online, did
     not lose its data, and accepts to force close the channel.
   - This option is only available for standard wallets with an
     Electrum seed. It is not available for hardware wallets, because
     it requires a deterministic derivation of the nodeID. It is also
     not available in watching-only wallets, for the same reason. If a
     wallet can have recoverable channels but has an old nodeID, users
     who want to use that feature need to close all their existing
     channels, and to restore their wallet from seed.
   - Channel recovery data uses 20 bytes (16 bytes of the remote
     NodeID plus 4 magic bytes) and is encrypted so that only the
     wallet that owns it can decrypt it. However, blockchain analysis
     will be able to tell that the transaction was probably created by
     Electrum.
   - If the 'use recoverable channels' option is enabled, other nodes
     cannot open a channel to Electrum.
   - If a channel is force-closed, the information in the on-chain
     backup is not sufficient to retrieve the funds in the to_local
     output, in case the wallet is lost in a boating accident before
     expiration of the CSV delay. For that reason, an additional
     backup is presented to the user if they force-close a channel.
 * Trampoline routing (option): Trampoline is a solution that allows
   light clients to delegate path-finding on the Lightning Network, so
   that they do not have to download the entire network
   graph. Trampoline routing was originally proposed by Bastien
   Teinturier and is used in the Phoenix wallet. Here is how
   Trampoline works in Electrum:
   - Trampoline is enabled by default, in order to prevent unwanted
     download of the network gossip. If trampoline is disabled, the
     gossip will be downloaded, regardless of the existence of
     channels.
   - Because there is no discovery mechanism for trampoline nodes, the
     list of available trampolines is hardcoded in the client (it will
     remain so until support for trampoline routing is announced in
     gossip). 3 trampoline nodes are currently available on mainnet:
     ACINQ, Electrum and Hodlister.
   - If Trampoline is enabled:
      - payments use trampoline routing.
      - gossip is disabled.
      - the wallet can only open channels with trampoline nodes.
      - pre-existing channels with non-trampoline nodes are frozen for
        sending.
   - There are two types of trampoline payments: legacy and trampoline
     end-to-end. Legacy payments are possible with any receiver, but
     they offer less privacy than end-to-end trampoline
     payments. Electrum decides whether to perform legacy or
     end-to-end based on the features in the invoice:
       - OPTION_TRAMPOLINE_ROUTING_OPT (bit 25) for Electrum
       - OPTION_TRAMPOLINE_ROUTING_OPT_ECLAIR (bit 51) for Eclair/Phoenix
   - When performing a legacy payment, Electrum will add a second
     trampoline node to the route in order to protect the privacy of
     the payer and payee. It will fall back to a single trampoline if
     the two-trampoline strategy has failed for all trampolines.
     (Note: two-trampoline payments are currently not possible if the
     first trampoline is the ACINQ node, and is disabled for that
     node.)
   - Similar to Phoenix, the fee and CLTV delay are found by
     trial-and-error. If there is a second trampoline in the route, we
     use the same fee/CLTV for both. This trial-and-error is
     temporary; the final specification should add fee information in
     the failure messages, so that we will be able to better fine-tune
     trampoline fees.
 * Qt: The increase fee dialog now has advanced options, and offers
   the choice between different RBF strategies.
 * Watchtowers: The 'use_local_watchtower' feature is deprecated, and
   it has been removed from the Qt GUI. The 'use_remote_watchtower'
   setting has been renamed to 'use_watchtower'.
 * Password unification (Android only): When the Android app is
   started, the entered password is checked against all wallets in
   the directory. If the test passes:
    - all wallets are encrypted
    - new wallets will use the unified password
    - password updates are performed on all wallets
   Whether the password is unified can be seen in the GUI: In the
   'Settings' dialog, the description for the password setting is
   'Change password for this wallet' if the password is not unified,
   and becomes 'Change password' if password is unified.
 * Submarine swaps are now available on kivy/android.
 * Android PIN reset: If the password is unified, the PIN can be reset
   by providing the password.
 * Android: on-chain fees have been removed from the settings
   dialog. Instead, the fee slider is shown to the user everytime an
   on-chain transaction will be performed (sending a payment, opening
   a channel, initiating a submarine swap)
 * BIP-0350: use bech32m for witness version 1+ addresses (4315fa43).
   We have supported sending to any witness version since Electrum
   3.0, using BIP-0173 (bech32) addresses. BIP-0350 makes a breaking
   change in address encoding, and recommends using a new encoding
   (bech32m) for sending to witness version 1 and later.
 * Block explorer: allow setting a custom URL in Qt GUI (#6965)

 - rm old corrupted non-bip70 invoices (#6345)
 - other minor fixes

# Release 4.0.1 - (July 3, 2020)
 * Lightning Network support (experimental)
   - Our implementation of Lightning relies on Electrum servers to
     query channel states. Since servers can lie about the state of a
     channel, users should either use a server that they trust, or
     setup a private watchtower (see below). A watchtower is also
     recommended for lightning wallets that remain offline for
     extended periods of time (the default CSV 'to_self_delay' is 1
     week). Please note that Electrum Personal Server (EPS) cannot be
     used with lightning wallets, because channels funding addresses
     are arbitrary.
   - Lightning funds cannot be restored from seed. Instead, users need
     to create static backups of their channels. Static backups cannot
     be used to perform lightning transactions, they can only be used
     to trigger a remote-force-close of a channel.
   - Lightning-enabled wallet files must not be copied. Instead, a
     backup of the wallet can be created from the Qt menu, and it will
     contain static backups of all its channels. Backups can also be
     exported for each channel (e.g. via QR code), and imported in
     another wallet. Since backups are encrypted with a key derived
     from the wallet's xpub, they can only be imported into another
     instance of the same wallet, or a watch-only version of it. The
     force-close is not triggered automatically when the backup is
     imported; imported backups can live inside a wallet file.
   - Lightning can be enabled in the GUI (Wallet>Information) or from
     the CLI (init_lightning). Lightning is currently restricted to HD
     p2wpkh wallets (including watch-only and hardware wallets). The
     Qt GUI, CLI/RPC, and the kivy GUI (Android) all have LN support,
     with feature-richness in that order.
   - LN protocol details: dataloss_protect and static_remotekey are
     required; varonion and payment_secret are implemented, MPP not yet.
     Channels are not announced ('private'), forwarding is disabled.
     We do not serve gossip queries, only consume them.
   - Submarine swaps: the GUI integrates a service that offers
     atomically exchanging on-chain and lightning bitcoins for a fee.
     Electrum Technologies runs a central server for this, powered by
     the Boltz backend.
   - Watchtowers: Electrum can run a local watchtower (GUI setting),
     or it can connect to a remote watchtower. A watchtower contains
     pre-signed transactions and does not need your private keys. A
     local watchtower will watch your channels whenever an Electrum
     instance is running, without needing access to your wallet file.
     An Electrum daemon can be configured to be used as a remote
     watchtower by setting 'watchtower_address', 'watchtower_user' and
     'watchtower_password'.
 * Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions (PSBT, BIP-174) are supported
   (#5721). The previous Electrum partial transaction format is no
   longer supported, i.e. this is an incompatible change. Users should
   make sure that all instances of Electrum they use to co-sign or
   offline sign, are updated together.
 * Hardware wallets: several fixes in general; notable changes:
   - The BitBox02 is now supported (#5993)
   - Multisig support for Coldcard (#5440)
   - Compatibility with latest Trezor fw (#6064, #6198, #5692)
 * Dependencies (see README for install instructions):
   - libsecp256k1 is now required (previously optional). python-ecdsa
     remains a dependency but it is now only used for DNSSEC.
   - Added: either one of pycryptodomex or cryptography is now required,
     mainly due to LN (previously pycryptodomex was optional, for fast AES)
   - Removed: jsonrpclib-pelix, the JSON-RPC library used for CLI/daemon
 * Qt GUI: several changes, notably:
   - Separation between output selection and transaction finalization.
   - Coin selection moved to the Coins tab, and it affects all txns,
     e.g. RBF fee-bumping, LN channel opens, submarine swaps.
   - Editable tx preview dialog that allows e.g. changing the locktime,
     toggling RBF, and manual coinjoins.
 * HTTP PayServer: The configuration of a bitcoin-accepting website
   using Electrum has been simplified and requires fewer steps (see
   documentation). The Payserver supports BIP70 and Lightning payments.
 * Android:
   - We now build two APKs, one for ARMv7 and one for ARMv8
   - The kivy GUI now supports importing BIP39 seeds
   - Each wallet on kivy now can have a separate generic password,
     using which the wallet files are encrypted. An optional PIN,
     shared among all wallets, can be added to get prompted for spends.
 * The API of several CLI/RPC commands have changed, and several new
   commands have been introduced (mainly for LN).
 * Distributables:
   - The .tar.gz source dist is now built reproducibly.
     Relatedly, we no longer distribute a .zip sdist.
   - The MacOS binary now conforms to macOS 10.15; it is notarized
     by Apple. This required bumping the min macOS version to 10.13.
     Startup times should now be faster on 10.15. (#6128, #6225)
 * Transactions:
   - we now grind low R for ECDSA signatures to match bitcoind (#5820)
 * Lots and lots of other minor bugfixes and improvements.
