Who should update

  • All masternodes, stakers, and wallets

Release Notes

  • More aggressive block download from peers implemented
  • The block syncing thread no longer allows itself to be choked by the rest of the application (it will forcefully take control and lock the main semaphore). The previous behavior with TRY_LOCK(...) was causing busy-looping and increased CPU utilization
  • Check for duplicate blocks more aggressively in more of the functions in main.cpp which should allow us to catch them earlier depending on the execution path
  • The money supply is now calculated earlier in ConnectBlock(...). Debug message and back-trace was added to track future money supply issues occurring
  • The PushGetBlocks(...) function no longer floods GETSPORKS messages
  • Un-merged the midas branch changes from master - Keeping this change in the official daemon might not be safe

About binary distributions

  • The published AppImages are for 64bit Linux distributions and should work on most relatively recent Linux versions.
  • Binaries for both 32bit and 64bit Windows systems are provided.
