Core Lightning v24.08.2: Remember and Update Channel Hints

Core Lightning is a lightweight, highly customizable and standard compliant implementation of the Lightning Network protocol.

Core Lightning v24.08.2: Remember and Update Channel Hints
  • "This point release addresses few crash fixes and includes an enhancement to remember and update channel hints for payments," said the project.

What's new

  • pay: Now remembers and updates channel hints across payments.
  • pay: Discarding an overly long or expensive route does not blacklist channels anymore.
  • grpc: Channel type anchors/even was added to the grpc bindings.
  • gossipd: crash errors with large gossip_store (>4MB) growth on longer-running nodes.
  • connectd: crash on erroneous timeout.
  • Protocol: we could get confused on restart and not re-transmit our own channel_updates.
  • rpc: listpeerchannels (and thus, pay) sped up on very large nodes.
  • Improved pathfinding speed for large nodes.
