I've created https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/26972 to track ideas on how to detect those silent build issues, or at least make them easier to spot.

> The note about changing the type in 2024 was also removed. This passes all extended tests.

I don't think you need to detail what is changed and if the tests pass in the description. It would be better to focus on information that is useful to reviewers. For example, a measurement of memory before and after.

Also, when changing the type, you'll have to check all places where this is used, and update them, if needed. For example, casts should be removed and other types need to be increased

> This library has existed for nearly 10 years with very little known uptake or impact. It has become a maintenance burden. In several cases it dictates our code/library structure (for example necessitating LIBBITCOIN_CRYPTO_BASE), as well as build-system procedures (building multiple copies of object files especially for the lib).


What is the status of `LIBBITCOIN_CRYPTO_BASE`? Is it kept around or moved into libbitcoin_common?

I see it's mentioned here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29180#issuecomment-1878604328 - would be useful to also add a note to libraries.md

Concept ACK. Moving things out of util that the kernel will / should never need, makes sense to me. I don't have strong feelings on where exactly to move these things to.

> I think the newly added generic ser/unser methods to CKey are harmless.

Its adding a footgun to `CKey`. The class is making sure to keep the secret data secure in memory and to free it when the key is gone, so allowing the key to be created directly from (potentially insecure) data on disk and allowing the key to be written out unencrypted to disk without destroying the key seems like an anti-pattern. You could argue that the existing methods (e.g. `GetPrivKey`) are also footguns, but that

Because I made this commit before e83babe (#27217), which removed the `IsMine` calls, and I forgot to update the commit description after the rebase. Will clean it, thanks.

As we will never merge a PR solely removing the extra parentheses, we can either clean them now while working on this function or we keep them for another decade. I prefer to clean them now, but np in reverting the line if it conflicts with the review process.

> If the destination requires_transfer but isn't ours, go to the next wallet. If this happens for both wallets, copy will never be set and we will fail

If the destination requires transfer (a "receive" addr that is no longer part of the main wallet), the process checks to which wallet the entry belongs to. And, when the entry does not belong to any of the created wallets, it means that the key/script-to-descriptor migration process failed. This is because "receive" entries must always be trac
