Status: Proposed

Author(s): @BoweryKing

Type: Software Upgrade

Discussions-to:

Created: 09/13/2024

Summary

This is a software upgrade proposal for Paloma and for Pigeon. We intent to upgrade the protocol of the tumbler network to v2.2.1. This release reintroduces a more streamlined compass handover process, improved gas estimation and bug fixes.

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 23804395 or approximately 09/16/2024, 8:24 UTC See (Block height: Block 23804395 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
