Description

Hey @theborakompanioni -

Currently on umbrelOS all bitcoin node implementations (Core, Knots, Libre Relay) set
`-deprecatedrpc=create_bdb` to ensure compatibility with Jam.

However, [v30 has completely removed bdb legacy wallets](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/release-notes/release-notes-30.0.md:)

> BDB legacy wallets can no longer be created or loaded. They can be migrated to the new descriptor wallet format. Refer to the migratewallet RPC for more details.

So as soon as any of the node apps update to include that wallet change, Jam will no longer work correct? Is descriptor wallet support imminent by chance so that Jam users don't get locked out of funds? I imagine this would be a similar issue across other OS's that have Jam as an app.
