Releases: DeFiCh/ain
v1.7.7
Mandatory Update
What’s Changed
This is a mandatory upgrade for all nodes running any version prior to v1.7.7.
This release:
- disables the problematic additional account merkle root check that was introduced with Eunos.
- reinstates anchor payouts.
- should also restores multi-masternode mining performance prior to Eunos
If you are running masternodes, ensure that SPV is enabled, spv=1 at defi.conf
Network snapshots
You can restore quickly using either one of the snapshots below:

🚀 Features
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Revert invalid chain if we partial connect its blocks @bvbfan (#489)
- Prevent block invalidation prior last checkpoint @bvbfan (#490)
- Disable additional account merkle root check @bvbfan (#482)
- Only skip anchor TX on mainnet @Bushstar (#488)
How to run?
Download and untar the relevant version to your operating system, run bin/defid or bin/defid.exe to start a DeFi Blockchain daemon. The client (CLI) can be found at bin/defi-cli or bin/defi-cli.exe.
DeFi App (GUI) users
If you are running the desktop DeFi App, you do not have to manually update the underlying node as the app will handle it. Check https://github.com/DeFiCh/app/releases for the latest releases.

v1.7.6
Mandatory Update
What’s Changed
This release fixes an issue where the blockchain node would get stuck in a loop when a block with invalid merkle root is found.
Anchoring reward temporarily disabled
The anchoring reward breaks the newly included Merkle root safety check that comes with Eunos.
For now, all anchors on Eunos will not be paid on time until a new upgrade cycle is set. Valid anchors that are accepted during Eunos will eventually be paid (deferred back payment) when the blockchain upgrade is in at a to-be-determined new block in the future.
Multi-miner notice
Known issue if you are doing multiple masternode mining on a single machine, Merkle root calculation is currently very compute-intensive, and you may require a higher-spec machine to be able to mine efficiently. A fix will be released over the next few days to optimize multiple masternode mining.
It is also recommended that you re-enabled SPV by setting spv=1 in defi.conf if you have previously have it off.

v1.7.5
Optional Update
This release is optional for most if you are already on v1.7.4, unless you are running a masternode. If you operate a masternode, this release is required for valid blocks to be crafted.

Deprecation notice
This release is deprecated, please use 1.7.4 from https://github.com/DeFiCh/ain/releases/tag/v1.7.4
Mandatory upgrade
This is a mandatory update for the upcoming Eunos upgrade.
Eunos upgrade is set for block 894,000 (ETA 3rd June, 2021). You MUST upgrade before the upgrade block.
Storage pruning
This node release greatly reduces the storage needed by more than 90% (~4GB)! If you are running it with existing data, it will take some time to prune the data. It may take as long as 30 minutes. The node may seem like it is stalled, but it is not.
On first run, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU LEAVE IT RUNNING FOR UP TO AN HOUR TO COMPLETE THE PRUNING WORK
This prunes your reward history to block 875,000. If you would like to retain all your full rewards history, run it with defid -checkpoints=0.
Reindex
- When upgrading from v1.6, you MUST reindex. Reindex by running
defid -reindex. - If you are upgrading from 1.7.0, you do not need to reindex.

Changelog
🚀 Features
This upgrade contains the following consensus enhancements:
- (EXPERIMENTAL) Interchain Exchange & Bitcoin atomic swap. This allows users to create and fulfill orderbook orders using the integrated Bitcoin SPV wallet and exchange any asset on DeFiChain with Bitcoin. @Mixa84 #335 @Bushstar #364 #356 #311 #308
- New emission rate & foundation destruction. This includes a change in the emission rate, allowing funds to be diverted to various DeFi uses, and the destruction of foundation funds. DFIP #7 & DFIP #8 @Bushstar #328
- Price Oracles. This implements price feeds, for utilisation in future DeFi services such as futures. @bvbfan #287
- Burn tracking. This allows the tracking of funds burnt manually or through fees and other automated burn operations. - @Bushstar #354
- Lazy block reward calculation for faster block sync. This is a performance improvement that improves the blockchain synchronisation time and disk usage. @bvbfan #279
- Account change tracking in Merkle root. This is a stability improvement that ensures that account changes are baked into the merkle root. - @bvbfan #337
- Fixed a bug on chainsplit. #380 This greatly improves the robustness of blockchain and reducing the likelihood of chainsplit occuring.
- Following the upgrade block, blockchain difficulty adjustment period will be increased from 10 blocks to 1008 blocks. #378
- Masternode registration now takes 1008 blocks to be activated. Resignation takes 2016 blocks. #419
