Important update for DOM miners
This release fixes a mining-template refresh defect that could cause a miner to continue hashing an outdated template indefinitely.
The miner now periodically:
- stops and joins the current mining workers;
- checks whether the canonical chain tip has changed;
- refreshes the block timestamp;
- recalculates the expected target using the existing DOM consensus implementation;
- starts a new mining round with the refreshed template.
Consensus compatibility
This update does not change:
- DOM consensus rules
- genesis
- Chain ID
- ASERT parameters or formula
- target block spacing
- block rewards
- transaction rules
- validation rules
- economic policy
Existing non-mining validating nodes remain compatible.
Miners should update and restart their node process to prevent mining from becoming stuck on an outdated template.
