Hi all,

We released 1.8 today of bitcoin-s. This includes support for opening DLCs
over tor. This makes the UX much simpler to enter into a DLC with your
counterparty.

As part of this release, we wrote two detailed examples of entering into

1. A wallet election example
<https://bitcoin-s.org/docs/next/wallet/wallet-election-example>
2. A wallet price example
<https://bitcoin-s.org/docs/next/wallet/wallet-price-example>

These are meant to complement the existing oracle examples we have

1. An election oracle example
<https://bitcoin-s.org/docs/next/oracle/oracle-election-example>
2. A price oracle example
<https://bitcoin-s.org/docs/next/oracle/oracle-price-example>

*This is alpha software, please do not use it for large amounts of money.*

You need a github account to access the downloads, the artifacts are at the
very bottom of the release notes.
