## v1.2.4
## Release v1.2.5

### Improvemennts

* [#5247](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5247) exits cleanly without milseading spamming

Fixes a bug that would spam with misleading log on exit, such as below:

> 2023-11-09T11:13:27.835-0600 ERROR e524f.hare failed to update weakcoin {"node_id": "e524fce96f0a87140ba895b56a2e37e29581075302778a05dd146f4b74fce72e", "module": "hare", "lid": 0, "error": "set weak coin 0: database: no free connection"}

## Release v1.2.4

### Upgrade information

This release enables hare3 on testnet networks. And schedules plannned upgrade on mainnet.
Network will have downtime if majority of nodes don't upgrade before layer 35117.
Starting at layer 35117 network is expected to start using hare3, which reduces total bandwidth
requirements.
Current release is expected to be adopted by majority of the network participants before epoch 11 starts.
Nodes that do not update before epoch 11 risk their proposals being rejected by the rest of the network1.

* [#5091](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5091) Separating PoST from the node into its own service.
* [#5061](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5061) Proof generation is now done via a dedicated service
instead of the node.
* [#5154](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5154) Enable TLS connections between node and PoST service.

PoST proofs are now done via a dedicated process / service that the node communicates with via gRPC. Smapp users can
continue to smesh as they used to. The node will automatically start the PoST service when it starts and will shut it
down when it shuts down.

Bounds the time required to restart a node.

* [#5171](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5171) Set minimal active set according to the observed number
of atxs.

It will prevent ballots that under report observed atxs from spamming the network. It doesn't have impact on rewards.

* [#5169](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5169) Support pruning activesets.

As of epoch 6 activesets storage size is about ~1.5GB. They are not useful after verifying eligibilities
for ballots in the current epoch and can be pruned.

Pruning will be enabled starting from epoch 8, e.g in epoch 8 we will prune all activesets for epochs 7 and below.
We should also run an archival node that doesn't prune them. To disable pruning we should configure

```json
"main": {
"prune-activesets-from": 4294967295
}
```

* [#5189](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5189) Removed deprecated "Best Provider" option for initialization.

With v1.1.0 (<https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/releases/tag/v1.1.0>) selecting `-1` as `smeshing-opts-provider`
has been deprecated. This option has now been removed. Nodes that already finished initialization can leave this setting
empty, as it is not required any more to be set when no initialization is performed. For nodes that have not yet created
their initial proof the operator has to specify which provider to use. For Smapp users this is done automatically by
Smapp, users that do not use Smapp may use `postcli -printProviders` (<https://github.com/spacemeshos/post/releases>)
to list their OpenCL providers and associated IDs.

* [#5207](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5207) Move the NiPoST state of a node into a new node-local database.

The node now uses 2 databases: `state.sql` which holds the node's view on the global state of the network and `node_state.sql`
which holds ephemeral data of the node.

With this change `post.bin` and `nipost_challenge.bin` files are no longer used. The node will automatically migrate
the data from disk and store it in the database. The migration will take place at the first startup after the upgrade.

* [#5209](https://github.com/spacemeshos/go-spacemesh/pull/5209) Removed API to update poet servers from SmesherService.
