Note: focal is [supported until April 2025](https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle) and ships with [`3.8`](https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/python3), so since that's already unsupported as per our current `3.9` requirements that doesn't really change anything.

I somewhat agree that if the code does something slightly different from what one could expect, it may be worth adding a comment - it would depend on the situation. Verbose discussions of engineering tradeoffs usually belong in discussion forums, docs, and bips, not function descriptions.

What we have currently seems fine to me: "Note this computation is for spending a Segwit v0... For Segwit v1... this computation was kept. See discussion... for more details". It is in a suitable location, i

OK, I agree with you. It may be more appropriate to put it in discuss.

I will close this issue. Thank you for your review.

I wanted to weigh in here. Tried to sync a 27.1 node on a KVM with Ubuntu 24.04.01/xfs. During the initial sync I got mysterious crashes, apparently due to `.dat` files or LevelDB corruption. I unmounted the volume, but `xfs_repair` did not find any filesystem errors. Downgraded the node to `25.0`, segfaults still persisted. I also checked the KVM's RAM with memtest86+, no errors. In the kernel log there were some xfs warnings however.

After this, I reinstalled 24.04.01 on the same KVM with

Closing as this lacks conceptual support and is still obviously controversial.

Good point - I feel like we actually shouldn't be adding the `Assume(IsInvalid())` here then. We don't have the `MempoolAcceptResult` here (and we shouldn't do that imo as txdownloadman.h would have a dependency on validation.h)

Thanks for noticing, very subtle! Added a commit to make this change explicit, though it is overwritten immediately afterwards.

Added a comment that this specifically refers to peers in the map.

I also added a doxygen comment to the `TxDownloadManager` definition saying that this class isn't thread-safe and needs to be externally synced.

Resolved https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30110#issuecomment-2391859626 by adding this:

> don't return package if child is in rejects filter(seems most robust?)

I like this suggestion as well:

> Call TxOrphanage::EraseTx using both txid and wtxid in this case (witness-free tx can never be valid)

I've dropped the one_honest_peer fuzzer and plan to open it as a separate PR, because it's quite a large portion of the new code and imo underripe compared to the rest of the changes.

Its true there was a lack of interest to review this pull request and its not the best tool for privacy. However, a worse way to do the same thing was used in Samourai earlier and still available in Ashigaru. Ricochet fee is 0.001 BTC for the default 4 hops, with an additional fee for each extra hop beyond 4.

⚠️ D33r-Gee opened an issue: "cpp: exposing AssumeUTXO functionality to the GUI (QML) via the Node interface"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31094)
### Issues, reports or feature requests related to the GUI should be opened directly on the GUI repo

- [X] I still think this issue should be opened here

### Report

To facilitate UTXO snapshot loading through the GUI, specifically for the QML implementation, we need to extend the Node interface in [src/interfaces/node.h](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/interfaces/node.h) and provide a corresponding implementation in [src/node/interfaces.cpp](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitco

Nit: The lead is a bit buried here. I would plainly state "Monotonically increasing estimates are not guaranteed in certain data-sparse scenarios. In particular, (fill in the rest of your comment)"

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31094#issuecomment-2415197540)
I don't think this needs an issue opened up here yet, the draft implementation linked isn't ready for review.

It would be unclear who the user would be now in relation to this repo with the Qt Widgets GUI not having a design to represent AssumeUTXO states.

Issues related to the QML GUI should be contained in that [repo](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui-qml), until it's clearly relevant here.

Not sure if it worth it but could craft an unit test that calls to the RPC command. Subclassing and setting the block manager class so the file opening method "stops" at a certain point. It would mimic the delay.

Thanks, I'm happy to take this suggestion. What do you think about:

* Note: Monotonically increasing estimates are not guaranteed in certain
* data-sparse scenarios. In particular, if estimateCombinedFee returns no
* valid data (-1) for some estimates for a lower target, but does return
* valid data for a higher target, the estimate can theoretically return a
* higher value for higher targets.
