BSV Deprecation

Consensus change to render BitGo BSV Wallets unable to receive funds — Bitcoin Satoshi’s Vision (BSV) Protocol Developers have scheduled the Genesis Hard Fork for February 4, 2020.

Native SegWit for Litecoin

BitGo now supports sending to Bech32 addresses and generating Native SegWit addresses on Litecoin. We previously introduced the advantages of Native SegWit addresses when we rolled out Native SegWit support for Bitcoin. Native SegWit receive addresses can be generated via the API by specifying the derivation chain code 20 for new addresses. When sending transactions, passing the parameter addressType: ‘p2wsh’ will send change to Native SegWit change addresses.
