Improved transaction tree labels. “This release improves the transaction tab, with more descriptive labels and icons in the transaction tree on the left and more useful titles for the input and output detail panels.”Quicker transaction tab loading. “Transaction tab loading is more performant too.”Reduced rescans on Bitcoin Core. “The frequency of rescanning when connected to Bitcoin Core has been eliminated or reduced.
