On March 30, 2012, Bitcoin updated to version 0.6.0, which included security fixed, more than 20 language localizations, and New Sign Message, creating a digital signature.

New wallets created with this version will use 33-byte ‘compressed’ public keys instead of 65-byte public keys, resulting in smaller transactions and less traffic on the bitcoin network.
