<p><strong>For Segwit</strong>
 Bitconj 0.14 branch is ~2 years old and has got no support for segwit at
all. For receiving on native Segwit addresses, you can use the master
branch. For receiving on P2WPKH-P2SH, I'm not sure. If master doesn't
work you can try the segwit branch (but that one isn't tested well).</p>
