Venus release

Note: Venus will be released no later than 24 hours after the release of Lotus. This projected timeline may be subject to change based on testings and developments!

You will need to be on venus v1.2.0 or ^ for the OhSnap upgrade.

• venus v1.2.0: It is based on the last release, venus v1.1.3-rc1, and includes consensus-breaking changes and a couple of necessary improvements for the Network v15 OhSnap upgrade.
  • Ecosystem teams such as node operators and exchanges need to upgrade your node to this version immediately after the release of the tag, and only need to run the chain service modules; After the release of this version, users such as storage providers and data agents need to upgrade your nodes and all systems to this version!

As mentioned in the OhSnap Notice:

• venus release candidates will include the temporary proof params for the community to test Snap Deal in the SnapNet.
  • Note: the temporary proof params are not available in master to prevent users from using the wrong params in mainnet.
• Final releases will be out after the trusted setup ceremony is completed and the final proof is available. New release candidates will be published before the calibration upgrade once the final proof is ready.

cd venus-sealer
git pull
git checkout v1.4.0-rc5
make clean && make deps && make 

China region:
IPFS_GATEWAY="https://proof-parameters.s3.cn-south-1.jdcloud-oss.com/ipfs/" ./venus-sealer fetch-params 32GiB

Other regions:
./venus-sealer fetch-params 32GiB
