This release is an optional upgrade which will not break network consensus. It adds the following quality-of-life improvements:

  • Support for inter-witness communication with nodes that are using IPv6 (previously this wouldn't work as IPv6 endpoints were malformed).
  • lastVerifiedBlockNumber from witness params table added to output of the getStatus API call.

Note that although IPv6 is now properly supported, Top 20 witnesses are still encouraged to use IPv4 as the various Engine systems that rely on the witnesses are not fully compatible with IPv6 at the present time.

PRS included: #147 #148

The above items are community contributions from our witnesses @primersion and @Rishi556
