+# dcrd v1.8.1
+
+This is a patch release of dcrd that includes some updates to the RPC server and
+JSON-RPC API in light of the changes made by
+[DCP0011](https://github.com/decred/dcps/blob/master/dcp-0011/dcp-0011.mediawiki) as follows:
+
+* The `getblock` and `getblockheader` RPCs now have an additional `powhash`
+  field for the new Proof-of-Work hash
+* The `getnetworkhashps` RPC now treats -1 for the blocks parameter as the
+  default number of blocks versus the previous behavior that is no longer
+  applicable to the new difficulty ajustement algorithm
+
+The RPC server version as of this release is 8.1.0.
+
+## Changelog
+
+This patch release consists of 5 commits from 2 contributors which total to 7
+files changed, 47 additional lines of code, and 29 deleted lines of code.

+
+# dcrwallet v1.8.1
+
+This release contains important bug fixes for VSP users.
+
+## Bug fixes
+
+* A warning is logged if a VSP fee payment could not be created due to a locked wallet ([`1c1bcfbd`](https://github.com/decred/dcrwallet/commit/1c1bcfbd)).
+
+* VSP fee payments started by RPC requests are no longer cancelled early after the RPC returns ([`07854e37`](https://github.com/decred/dcrwallet/commit/07854e37)).
+
+* The random duration interval during which ticket fee payment operations occur was fixed using the correct calculation of when a ticket goes live ([`c4c6c421`](https://github.com/decred/dcrwallet/commit/c4c6c421)).
+
+* Fee payment confirmations are no longer assumed to be valid after they receive 6 confirmations, and the VSP is contacted to ensure that it has also confirmed the payment ([`7c551ce6`](https://github.com/decred/dcrwallet/commit/7c551ce6)).
+
+* Block heights for ticket liveness and expiry are recalculated properly whenever unmined tickets are processed by the VSP client  ([`1319da0b`](https://github.com/decred/dcrwallet/commit/1319da0b)).
+
+## New features
+
+* The verbose `getblock` and `getblockheader` JSON-RPC results now include a `powhash` field with the hash calculated for the Proof-of-Work algorithm.
+
