The launch of Bitcoin Core 28.0 introduces major security enhancements and performance improvements. This update patches a high-risk vulnerability that affected one in every six Bitcoin nodes, which previously allowed for potential DoS attacks. With reproducible builds now supported, trust and transparency within the community are strengthened. Additionally, the software increases peer connections to 125 by default, reinforcing Bitcoin’s decentralized structure. These changes are expected to further secure the network as Bitcoin continues its path of adoption and long-term growth.
