-P2P and network changes
------------------------
-
-#### Removal of reject network messages from Bitcoin Core (BIP61)
-
-The command line option to enable BIP61 (`-enablebip61`) has been removed.
-
-This feature has been disabled by default since Bitcoin Core version 0.18.0.
-Nodes on the network can not generally be trusted to send valid ("reject")
-messages, so this should only ever be used when connected to a trusted node.
-Please use the recommended alternatives if you rely on this deprecated feature:
-
-* Testing or debugging of implementations of the Bitcoin P2P network protocol
-  should be done by inspecting the log messages that are produced by a recent
-  version of Bitcoin Core. Bitcoin Core logs debug messages
-  (`-debug=<category>`) to a stream (`-printtoconsole`) or to a file
-  (`-debuglogfile=<debug.log>`).
-
-* Testing the validity of a block can be achieved by specific RPCs:
-  - `submitblock`
-  - `getblocktemplate` with `'mode'` set to `'proposal'` for blocks with
-    potentially invalid POW
-
-* Testing the validity of a transaction can be achieved by specific RPCs:
-  - `sendrawtransaction`
-  - `testmempoolaccept`
-
-* Wallets should not use the absence of "reject" messages to indicate a
-  transaction has propagated the network, nor should wallets use "reject"
-  messages to set transaction fees. Wallets should rather use fee estimation
-  to determine transaction fees and set replace-by-fee if desired. Thus, they
-  could wait until the transaction has confirmed (taking into account the fee
-  target they set (compare the RPC `estimatesmartfee`)) or listen for the
-  transaction announcement by other network peers to check for propagation.
-
-The removal of BIP61 REJECT message support also has the following minor RPC
-and logging implications:
-
-* `testmempoolaccept` and `sendrawtransaction` no longer return the P2P REJECT
-  code when a transaction is not accepted to the mempool. They still return the
-  verbal reject reason.
-
-* Log messages that previously reported the REJECT code when a transaction was
-  not accepted to the mempool now no longer report the REJECT code. The reason
-  for rejection is still reported.
