23.2 Release Notes
2+
==================
3+
4+
Bitcoin Core version 23.2 is now available from:
5+
6+
<https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-23.2/>
7+
8+
This release includes various bug fixes and performance
9+
improvements, as well as updated translations.
10+
11+

How to Upgrade
20+
==============
21+
22+
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
23+
shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the
24+
installer (on Windows) or just copy over `/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt` (on macOS)
25+
or `bitcoind`/`bitcoin-qt` (on Linux).
26+
27+
Upgrading directly from a version of Bitcoin Core that has reached its EOL is
28+
possible, but it might take some time if the data directory needs to be migrated. Old
29+
wallet versions of Bitcoin Core are generally supported.
30+
31+
Compatibility
32+
==============
33+
34+
Bitcoin Core is supported and extensively tested on operating systems
35+
using the Linux kernel, macOS 10.15+, and Windows 7 and newer. Bitcoin
36+
Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not as
37+
frequently tested on them. It is not recommended to use Bitcoin Core on
38+
unsupported systems.
