Proposal: PIP-101: Paloma Protocol Upgrade to Paloma & Pigeon v2.2.2

Status: Proposed

Author(s): @BoweryKing

Type: Software Upgrade

Discussions-to:

Created: 09/20/2024

Summary

This is a software upgrade proposal for Paloma and for Pigeon. We intend to request that the network upgrade the protocol of the tumbler network to v2.2.2. This release addresses fixes where Pigeons Fail to complete relays and are selected again for messages. Thus, validators that fail Submit Logic Call Relays will receive reduce score in Pigeon Feed. Pigeon also upgrades to fix error data logging.

Motivation

The motivations for this Paloma upgrade include the following:

Prior to upgrade

  1. An upgrade proposal that must be submitted by anyone running a node on the network. This proposal should have the correct block height.
  2. Please use the following tool to calculate the approximate Block Height: Huginn - PalomaChain Release Window Planner
  3. This upgrade proposal requires 10 GRAIN or 10000000ugrain for deposit for voting.
  4. IMPORTANT: The upgrade height is the block height where the chain halts and requires the upgrade. Allow at least one (1) day AFTER voting end time and upgrade-height for 2/3 of the network to have downloaded the new binary and prepped for the switch over to avoid/minimize downtime of the Paloma chain.
  5. The Target block height for chain halt for this proposal is tentative 24160085 or approximately 09/23/2024, 8:24 UTC See (Block height: Block 24160085 Details - Paloma (GRAIN) Blockchain Explorer

How to check if 2/3 of the network is online after the vote is complete

curl -s localhost:26657/consensus_state | jq -r ".result.round_state.height_vote_set[0].prevotes_bit_array"

—> needs to return ≥ ~0.67 for the chain to start up again

To see which validators are online with the new binary, use GitHub - blockpane/pvtop: top-like tui for watching validator pre-votes on Tendermint chains
