Secret Network 1.7 Release Notes - Target Date - 1.3 (1st of March)
New Features
- Added the ability to rotate consensus seed during a network upgrade - this will be executed during this update
- Added expedited gov proposals - this allows for special proposals that can be voted on in 24 hours for emergencies
- Added auto-restaking - this is a feature that enables automatic compounding of staking rewards
- Added light-client validation for blocks - this protects against forking attacks, as well as enables trusted block heights and block time to be relied on by contracts
Bug Fixes
- Fixed OSX Ledger disconnection issues in secretcli
- Fixed /cosmos/base/node/v1beta1/config
- Fixed an issue when sending multiple message types in the same tx
- Fixed an issue with the IBC controller module
Breaking Changes
*** Mandatory secret.js update (non-API breaking) ***
The tx encryption key format has changed, requiring an update of secret.js. After the upgrade goes live, secret.js will require an update to one of the following versions to continue to function:
v1.5.x, v1.6.x → v1.7.x
v1.4.x → v1.4.6
v0.17.8 - can still be used
This update should be a simple version bump that will not change any existing APIs, and will not break functionality.
In order to test this version, secret.js 1.7.1-beta3 is available for testing on Pulsar-2, which is already on the 1.7 update.
Side note: This update will not affect Keplr
