Required upgrade for all mainnet validators and nodes. New consensus rules activate at block 24630300 (about Monday 12 October 2026, ~09:30 UTC).
- Security fixes from several independent audits: remote crash and stall bugs in p2p, JSON-RPC and WebSocket handling; stricter validation of consensus messages.
- Compact round-change messages (
wchainv111): consensus messages are much smaller, so the chain recovers from failed rounds without halting. - A validator that falls behind at an epoch boundary now catches up by itself instead of freezing until restarted.
- go-ibft
w-chain/go-ibft v0.4.1-wchain.5.
Upgrade: replace BOTH the binary and genesis.json from this release, then restart once. The new genesis.json only adds wchainv108–wchainv111 at block 24630300; keys, config, chaindata and the genesis hash are unchanged. Upgrade one validator at a time.
- Until block 24630300, v1.0.8 behaves exactly like v1.0.7.
- A v1.0.7 binary refuses the new
genesis.json("fork is not available"). - After block 24630300, never go back to v1.0.7.
