5.4.9.3-testnet

This is the 5.4.9.3 testnet only mandatory release that includes a mandatory v13 block height at 2870000.

5.4.9.0-leisure

[5.4.9.0], 2025-02-16, leisure

This is a maintenance leisure release and is probably the last leisure release before the
upcoming Natasha milestone mandatory release. The changes here are largely behind the scenes
bug fixes and adjustments to the build process to ensure compatibility with newer distributions.

Enjoy.

5.4.9.0-testnet

5.4.8.4-testnet

Testnet release of 5.4.8.4 for testing. This is RC2 for 5.4.9.0 maintenance release as part of the Natasha milestone.

This is for testnet network only unless permission is granted to use on mainnet by a core dev.

5.4.8.3-testnet

Testnet release of 5.4.8.3 for testing. This is RC1 for 5.4.9.0 maintenance release as part of the Natasha milestone.

This is for testnet network only unless permission is granted to use on mainnet by a core dev.

Testnet release of 5.4.8.2 for testing.

This is for testnet network only unless permission is granted to use on mainnet by a core dev.

5.4.8.0-hotfix-1

This is a hotfix tag to address the breaking change in miniupnp API version 18+. Currently this is only necessary for Arch Linux with the latest updates.

Fixed

• util, build: Support miniupnp API version 18+ #2771 (@jamescowens)

5.4.8.0-leisure

[5.4.8.0], 2024-04-10, leisure

This release is a maintenance release that adds checkpoints post the unintended
fork when 5.4.6.0 was introduced. Given that some folks upgraded to 5.4.7.0 too
late for their wallets to correct out of the fork, some 5.4.7.0 clients continue
to spam the network. This will largely squelch that on 5.4.8.0 nodes. It also
will force the forked 5.4.7.0 or below clients to reset their blockchain and
resync from zero when they upgrade to 5.4.8.0 and run it for the first time.

It is highly encouraged to upgrade to this release.
