Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#22544: cli -addrinfo: drop torv2; torv3 becomes onion per GetNetworkName()
49d503aefa doc: update -addrinfo in release-notes.md and tor.md (Jon Atack)
75ea9ecf11 cli -addrinfo: drop torv2, torv3 becomes onion per GetNetworkName() (Jon Atack)

Pull request description:

  #22050 removed torv2 support from 22.0. For 23.0 and subsequent releases, we can probably remove torv2 from -addrinfo.

  before
  ```
    "addresses_known": {
      "ipv4": 58305,
      "ipv6": 5138,
      "torv2": 0,
      "torv3": 5441,
      "i2p": 14,
      "total": 68898
    }
  ```
  after
  ```
    "addresses_known": {
      "ipv4": 58305,
      "ipv6": 5138,
      "onion": 5441,
      "i2p": 14,
      "total": 68898
    }
  ```
  Per the naming of `netbase.{h, cpp}::GetNetworkName()`, torv3 becomes onion, which is what is printed in the output of getpeerinfo, getnetworkinfo and getnodeaddresses.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
