Command line option changes
63+
---------------------------
64+
65+
The `-enablebip61` command line option (introduced in Bitcoin Core 0.17.0) is
66+
used to toggle sending of BIP 61 reject messages. Reject messages have no use
67+
case on the P2P network and are only logged for debugging by most network
68+
nodes. The option will now by default be off for improved privacy and security
69+
as well as reduced upload usage. The option can explicitly be turned on for
70+
local-network debugging purposes.
