- Do not rely on local lastTimeSeen and requested fRequested anymore. Use last know (signed) ping instead and base all logic on that. Should reduce mn list difference between
nodes.
- Rework CActiveMasternode accordingly along with states, errorMessages, rpc etc.
- Clean some related code, move parts from public to private
- drop c_str in LogPrintf that were related to this functionality (todo: drop it for LogPrintf everywhere else)
-Syncing now happens in stages. Masternodes and Sporks, then Masternode winners, then proposals. Some of these require the masternode signatures, otherwise there are race conditions within the syncing process itself.
-Resigning - When a proposal is sent to the network initially it's signed by a masternode, if that masternode goes inactive the proposal becomes invalid. Resigning allows other masternodes to update proposal keep it valid with the coming and going of masternodes.
-Resigning compatibility - non masternodes will scan and flag proposals as invalid to accept updated owners.
-Invalid votes are now actively removed from the proposals when they go inactive
- Remove budgets with negative votes of more than 10% of network
- Only allow proposals into budget that have more than 10% of network support
- Faster removal of inactive masternodes
- With nodes coming and going on the network, the network could come to different opinions about who should get paid next in line due to some nodes being flagged as failing a PoSe check. This will have to be fixed by introducing a blockchain based PoSe system, but that's out of the scope of this release. To fix the issues in the interrim, I'm removing PoSe checks for the time being.
- Masternode nLastPaid is removed and a new caching system that keeps the last 30 days of coinbase payees replaces it
- To deal with some significant attack vectors, the masternode donation feature was removed. The donation feature was added to support developement anyway, so this will be replaced by the budgeting code.
- This code should allow the network to come to consensus about who should be paid pretty effectively
- Added commands for using budgets "mnbudget" and "mnfinalbudget"
- Supports 100% decentralized budget control and view-only site with json meta data object
- Removed of reference node and replaced with decentralized quorums that pick the masternodes who get paid each block.
- Made a budgeting system, where masternodes can vote on individual budgets and the data is stored perminently on each clients computer
- Added new CMasterBroadcast/CmasternodePing objects, with all of the code required to check each new message. SHould be much easier to tell what's going on now.
- Added nLastPaid to masternode information for persistant storage of the masternode payment cycle
- Masternodes get flagged as just paid when they enter the masternode list and must wait a full cycle to be paid again
- Masternode RPC commands now show short vin string instead of ip address
- fix descriptions and filtering in masternode list rpc, sort modes
- rename "active" to "status"
- move MN status string compilation to masternode.h
- "full" mode will use Status instead of IsEnabled now
- Ensures ports remain open and client are responsive to IX requests.
- Completely 100% decentralized. This farms out the work of checking the masternode network to the masternode network. 1% of the network is determistically selected to check another 1% of the network each block. It takes six separate checks to deactivate a node, thus making it tamper proof.
- Nodes are kept in the masternode list if they fail enough PoSe checks to deactivate. They will continue to be checked until the operator fixes them. However they will not be paid while they're failing checks.
- do not keep track of a single time variable for whole structure change
- save to masternode.dat and clear on checks:
- who's asked for the masternode list and the last time
- who we asked for the masternode list and the last time (will help to prevent dseg ban when restart wallet several times in short period of time)
- which masternodes we've asked for
- do not use timeout for CheckAndRemove (played with that - doesn't make sense actually)
- Made masternodes/darksend compatible with regression testing mode (a local-only blockchain that doesn't require mining). Developers can now test multiple rounds in a few minutes without waiting on mining (much faster).
- Added dsee security verification to v11
- darkSendMasternodes -> vecMasternodes (must clearer)
