Upgrading and downgrading

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Dash-Qt (on Mac) or dashd/dash-qt (on Linux). If you upgrade after DIP0003 activation and you were using version < 0.13 you will have to reindex (start with -reindex-chainstate or -reindex) to make sure your wallet has all the new data synced. Upgrading from version 0.13 should not require any additional actions.

Downgrade warning

Downgrade to a version < 0.13.0.0

Downgrading to a version smaller than 0.13 is not supported anymore as DIP2/DIP3 has activated on mainnet and testnet.

Downgrade to versions 0.13.0.0 - 0.13.3.0

Downgrading to 0.13 releases is fully supported until DIP0008 activation but is not recommended unless you have some serious issues with version 0.14.

Notable changes

Fixed governance votes pruning for invalid masternodes

A community member reported a possible attack that involves DoSing masternodes to force the network to prune all governance votes from this masternodes. This could be used to manipulate vote outcomes.

This vulnerability is currently not possible to execute as LLMQ DKGs and PoSe have not activated yet on mainnet. This version includes a fix that requires to have at least 51% masternodes to upgrade to 0.14.0.1, after which superblock trigger voting will automatically fix the discrepancies between old and new nodes. This also means that we will postpone activation of LLMQ DKGs and thus PoSe until at least 51% of masternodes have upgraded to 0.14.0.1.

Fixed a rare memory/db leak in LLMQ based InstantSend

We fixed a rare memory/db leak in LLMQ based InstantSend leak which would only occur when reorganizations would happen.
