The Bitcoin Knots repository merged a significant update on September 21, 2026, which changes the maturity period for coinbase transactions from 100 confirmations to a fixed 45-day lock. This means new mining rewards will now be locked for 45 days before they can be spent, potentially impacting miners' liquidity and transaction timing. The update aims to enhance network security and transaction finality by standardizing the lock period.
