2.7.18 is out
Version 3.0.1 is out # Release 3.0.1 * minor bug and usability fixes # Release 3.0 - Uncanny Valley (November 1st, 2017) * The project was migrated to Python3 and Qt5. Python2 is no longer supported. If you cloned the source repository, you will need to run "python3 setup.py install" in order to install the new dependencies. * Segwit support: - Native segwit scripts are supported using a new type of seed. The version number for segwit seeds is 0x100. The install wizard will not create segwit seeds by default; users must opt-in with the segwit option. - Native segwit scripts are represented using bech32 addresses, following BIP173. Please note that BIP173 is still in draft status, and that other wallets/websites may not support it. Thus, you should keep a non-segwit wallet in order to be able to receive bitcoins during the transition period. If BIP173 ends up being rejected or substantially modified, your wallet may have to be restored from seed. This will not affect funds sent to bech32 addresses, and it will not affect the capacity of Electrum to spend these funds. - Segwit scripts embedded in p2sh are supported with hardware wallets or bip39 seeds. To create a segwit-in-p2sh wallet, trezor/ledger users will need to enter a BIP49 derivation path. - The BIP32 master keys of segwit wallets are serialized using new version numbers. The new version numbers encode the script type, and they result in the following prefixes: * xpub/xprv : p2pkh or p2sh * ypub/yprv : p2wpkh-in-p2sh * Ypub/Yprv : p2wsh-in-p2sh * zpub/zprv : p2wpkh * Zpub/Zprv : p2wsh These values are identical for mainnet and testnet; tpub/tprv prefixes are no longer used in testnet wallets. - The Wallet Import Format (WIF) is similarly extended for segwit scripts. After a base58-encoded key is decoded to binary, its first byte encodes the script type: * 128 + 0: p2pkh * 128 + 1: p2wpkh * 128 + 2: p2wpkh-in-p2sh * 128 + 5: p2sh * 128 + 6: p2wsh * 128 + 7: p2wsh-in-p2sh The distinction between p2sh and p2pkh in private key means that it is not possible to import a p2sh private key and associate it to a p2pkh address. * A new version of the Electrum protocol is required by the client (version 1.1). Servers using older versions of the protocol will not be displayed in the GUI. * By default, transactions are time-locked to the height of the current block. Other values of locktime may be passed using the command line.
Meanwhile 3.0.2 has been released: # Release 3.0.2 * Android: replace requests tab with address tab, with access to private keys * sweeping minikeys: search for both compressed and uncompressed pubkeys * fix wizard crash when attempting to reset Google Authenticator * fix #3248: fix Ledger+segwit signing * fix #3262: fix SSL payment request signing * other minor fixes.
I was able to get electrum-3.0.3 working locally. One of the issues I had what the xmlrpclib import error like this: > import OpenSSL.SSL > Error: No module named 'xmlrpclib'. Try 'sudo pip install <module-name>' Taking a hint from https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/3301, it worked after I installed the "jsonrpclib-pelix" fork from here: https://github.com/tcalmant/jsonrpclib/releases/tag/v0.3.1
