Status: Proposed

Author(s): @BoweryKing

Type: Software Upgrade

Discussions-to: Governance - Paloma

Created: 10/28/2024

Summary

This is a software upgrade proposal for Pigeon. We request that the network upgrade the protocol of the tumbler network to Pigeon v2.3.3 Hot Fix version.

Abstract

This is a software upgrade proposal for Pigeon. We request that the network upgrade the protocol of the tumbler network to Pigeon v2.3.3.

This Pigeon release includes:

  • HotFix for Nil Pointer error that is at fault in v2.3.2

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 26222730 or approximately 10/30/2024, 21:00 UTC See (Block height: Block 26222730 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
