Design A: single-slot runtime override via RPC. The previous publisher
is dropped atomically on every set. The built-in fallback list
(TG8f76yktTxDrT7JJymY3wVAusXiD3fVvX, Sami's legacy key) is always
consulted if no runtime override is set, so a fresh daemon still
verifies old snapshots without operator intervention.
New RPCs:
- settrustedv2snapshotpublisher <address>
- gettrustedv2snapshotpublisher
- unsettrustedv2snapshotpublisher
Persistence: <datadir>/snapshot-publisher.json (plain JSON).
Loaded at startup in init.cpp before any snapshot verification.

Brings back the abandontransaction RPC that was removed when Triangles
forked from Bitcoin Core 0.18. The fix for a stuck or conflicted
transaction is currently to either wait indefinitely for the conflict
to resolve or restart the wallet with -zapwallettxes=1 (a heavy hammer
that wipes ALL unconfirmed txs). abandontransaction gives the user
targeted control.
Backend (port of Bitcoin Core 0.17's CWallet::AbandonTransaction):
- CWallet::AbandonTransaction(const uint256& hashTx) in src/wallet.{h,cpp}
Erases the tx from the wallet and the wallet DB, which releases
the inputs (vfSpent was tracked on the wtx). Iterates the wallet
to record descendant txs that spend this tx's outputs.
- abandontransaction RPC in src/rpcwallet.cpp + trianglesrpc.{h,cpp}.
Validates the tx is unconfirmed, in-wallet, and from this wallet
before calling AbandonTransaction.
- extern forward declaration in trianglesrpc.h so the RPC table can
reference the function.
UI (Qt right-click context menu in transactionview.cpp):
- New 'Abandon transaction' action in the context menu, only enabled
for transactions with Unconfirmed / Conflicted / Offline status.
- Confirmation dialog before calling the RPC.
- On success, refreshes the transactions table.
WalletModel::abandonTransaction(QString) in src/qt/walletmodel.{h,cpp}
is the thin wrapper that converts the QString hash to a uint256 and
calls CWallet::AbandonTransaction.
Tested by: building a Linux daemon + a successful regtest-style dry-run
that confirmed the new RPC is registered and the symbol is in the
binary. UI rebuild on Windows requires running build-all.yml on a
windows-latest runner (done via workflow_dispatch).
Adds deterministic HD key derivation (path m/44'/2222'/0'/0/i, matching the TRIdock web wallet) wired into CWallet: HD seed stored in wallet.dat (encrypted with the wallet master key when the wallet is encrypted), keypool derived from the seed, and new RPC commands hdnew/hdrestore/hdshow/hdinfo. Crypto core verified standalone against the official BIP39 vector and triWallet.js addresses.
Walks the active chain in [start_height, end_height] and runs the existing
VerifySignature path on every non-coinbase input. Returns counts plus the
first 100 failures.
Intended use: capture a pre-migration baseline (should be all-zero
failures), then re-run after switching the underlying ECDSA primitive
(e.g. OpenSSL EC -> libsecp256k1) to catch behavioural regressions before
they hit IBD on a peer.
Defaults: start = max(1, tip-1000), end = tip.

Migration from boost to std-library equivalents and removal of unreachable
code paths. Touches infrastructure only — no consensus rule or wallet
serialization changes.
Dead code removed:
- IRC bootstrap (irc.cpp/h, 417 lines): orphan from pre-Tor era, no callers.
- Alert system (alert.cpp/h + sendalert RPC + Qt UI signal, ~500 lines):
retired post-V5 fork; old peers' alert messages now hit the unknown-cmd
default branch, logged + ignored.
- Legacy P2P handlers in main.cpp: "checkpoint" (already a no-op stub since
V5 fork master-key removal), "checkorder"/"reply" (2010-era Receive-by-IP
feature), plus their unused supporting structures (CRequestTracker,
PushRequest overloads, mapRequests/cs_mapRequests, mapReuseKey).
- Unreachable RPCs clearwallettransactions and scanforalltxns (~175 lines):
defined in rpcwallet.cpp but never registered in the dispatch table.
- Stale -alertnotify CLI help text (option was advertised but never wired).
boost::filesystem -> std::filesystem (C++17):
- 30 source files, 5 headers. namespace fs = boost::filesystem swapped to
namespace fs = std::filesystem; boost::filesystem::ifstream/ofstream
replaced with std::ifstream/ofstream (path-aware in C++17);
fs::system_complete -> fs::absolute; boost::filesystem::filesystem_error
-> std::filesystem::filesystem_error.
- Build system: dropped Boost::filesystem from link libs and Boost
components; PCH includes updated.
- Added explicit <filesystem> includes where types were previously
available only transitively (db.h, rpcblockchain.cpp).
boost::thread -> std::thread (12 files):
- sync.h CCriticalSection/CWaitableCriticalSection now alias
std::recursive_mutex/std::mutex. boost::unique_lock and
boost::condition_variable / boost::mutex::scoped_lock swapped to std
equivalents; sync.cpp boost::thread_specific_ptr -> thread_local
std::unique_ptr.
- init.cpp boost::thread_group rewritten as std::vector<std::thread> with
manual join loop. boost::thread::hardware_concurrency ->
std::thread::hardware_concurrency.
- main.cpp/wallet.cpp -blocknotify/-walletnotify shell-out threads now use
std::thread(...).detach() — fixes a latent bug where modern boost::thread
destructor would call std::terminate on the joinable thread.
- util.cpp NewThread now catches std::system_error.
- No interruption_point/interrupt usage anywhere — pure mechanical swap.
boost::chrono / boost::posix_time -> std::chrono (3 of 5 files):
- util.h: MilliSleep, GetTimeMillis, GetTimeMicros rewritten on std::chrono
(system_clock for epoch math, sleep_for for delays).
- snapshotnet.cpp: sleep_for swapped.
- DoS_tests.cpp: timing harness uses steady_clock.
- Skipped: rpcdump.cpp (boost::posix_time::time_input_facet has no clean
std::get_time equivalent) and qt/qtipcserver.cpp (locked to
boost::posix_time by boost::interprocess::message_queue::timed_receive).
Other housekeeping:
- Dropped unnecessary "using namespace boost;" from txdb-leveldb.cpp,
txdb-rocksdb.cpp, walletdb.cpp, db.cpp (verified no unqualified boost
names in those TUs).
- Removed unused extern declaration for clearwallettransactions.
Build fixes for non-unity builds on MinGW64/GCC 15:
- net.cpp: dropped stale #include "irc.h".
- addrman.cpp + main.cpp: explicit <cmath> include for sqrt/pow (was
arriving transitively via boost headers).
- rpcblockchain.cpp + init.cpp: defensive #undef STRICT/ADVISORY/PERMISSIVE
since windows.h macros collide with the Checkpoints:: enum values when
std headers reorder include flow.
- tor_embed_hooks.cpp: triangles_tor_check_interrupted now polls fShutdown
instead of boost::this_thread::interruption_requested (we never used
boost interruption — the hook was always effectively a no-op).
- snapshotnet.cpp: fs::remove error handle uses std::error_code.
- serialize.h: added <ios> for std::ios::badbit/failbit (was relying on
transitive include via boost).
Note: unity builds currently fail on this branch due to std::byte (C++17)
colliding with COM 'byte' typedef from shlobj.h when 'using namespace std;'
from earlier files in the unity slice leaks into util.cpp's parse of
shlobj.h. Build with -DENABLE_UNITY_BUILD=OFF (the default).

Remove all json_spirit source files and add nlohmann/json (v3.11.3)
with a json_compat.h shim that preserves the json_spirit namespace
API. Updates all RPC and test files to use the new JSON backend.

Strip getwork, getworkex, getblocktemplate, submitblock RPC commands
and their helper functions (SHA256Transform, FormatHashBlocks,
FormatHashBuffers, IncrementExtraNonce, CheckWork) which have been
dead code since PoW ended at block 9000. AV engines pattern-match
these nonce-incrementing loops and mining pool interfaces as
cryptominer signatures. Block validation (CheckProofOfWork) and
Hash9 algorithm files are preserved - only block *creation* for
PoW mining is removed. PoS staking code is untouched.

Replace all hardcoded seed addresses (onion, clearnet, DNS) with a
dynamic HTTP-based seed list fetched from seeds.cryptographic-triangles.org
on startup. New getseedlist RPC exposes known .onion peers from the
address manager for a collector script to publish.
Any wallet that comes online with an onion address is automatically
discovered by peers via P2P addr exchange and appears in the seed list
within minutes. No binary rebuilds needed when addresses change.

New command: smsgbroadcast <addrFrom> <message>
Iterates all public keys in smsgDB and sends an encrypted message to each.
Skips the sender's own address. Reports sent/failed counts.
