Drop-in upgrade from v3.0.0 / v3.0.1. No reindex, no wallet migration, no consensus change — stop the node, swap the binaries, start it again.
What's in this release
- Binaries now report their real version. v3.0.1 builds printed
v3.0.0because the version was hardcoded insrc/clientversion.hand the CMake plumbing that should have supplied it had gone stale after the project rename. The version now lives in exactly one place —project(... VERSION)in the top-levelCMakeLists.txt. bitfinite-qtGUI wallet is included in both the Linux and Windows packages.
Also included, from v3.0.1
- New DNS seed —
seed.bitfinitechain.org, a live crawler, is now the primary peer-discovery source instead of the three staticseed-Nhostnames. Faster, more reliable bootstrap from cold. - Sync trust anchors —
nMinimumChainWorkanddefaultAssumeValidwere both0x00, meaning a syncing node would accept any chain presented to it. They are now pinned to a well-buried block, which hardens initial sync against a fake low-work chain and speeds it up.
Neither anchor changes block validity, so upgraded and non-upgraded nodes remain on the same chain.
