Update to Bitcoin Knots v29.1.knots20250903 - release notes at https://github.com/bitcoinknots/bitcoin/releases/tag/v29.1.knots20250903

🚨 After updating to this new version, please restart any connected apps (e.g., DATUM, Lightning Node, etc) to ensure they re-connect properly. Also, if you have forwarded ports on your router for incoming peer connections, you will need to make sure you are forwarding 9333 on your router to 9333 on your device.

This update introduces a completely redesigned experience, rebuilt from the ground up, both architecturally and visually, to give you a powerful, data-rich view into every aspect of your node's operation.

From visualizing the network in real time to fine-tuning your configuration, the tools you need for ultimate sovereignty are now at your fingertips.

New features:

• Globe: A stunning, real-time visualization of your node's global connections. See new peers connect and transactions broadcast around the world, as it happens.
• Blocks: Follow along as each new block arrives, packed with transactions, and is verified by your own node.
• Insights: Key metrics about your node and the network are now presented in a series of clean, elegant charts.
• Peers: A completely new table gives you a detailed, sortable list of every peer your node is connected to.
• Settings: Fine-tune your node with a simplified, searcheable, and more intuitive layout for the settings.
• Configuration Editor: Power users can now make custom fine-grained adjustments to their bitcoin.conf file directly from a new editor in the app's settings.

A new chapter for self-sovereignty begins.

• New Welcome page at the first start of Knots.
• Add -softwareexpiry option.
