Raw Blame History

Dash Core version 0.13.3.0

Release is now available from:

https://www.dash.org/downloads/#wallets

This is a new minor version release, bringing various bugfixes and other improvements.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

https://github.com/dashpay/dash/issues

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 you will have to reindex (start with -reindex-chainstate or -reindex) to make sure your wallet has all the new data synced (only if you were using version < 0.13).

As spork15 has been activated on mainnet, there is no need for masternode start anymore. Upgrading a masternode now only involves replacing binaries and restarting the node.

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 a version < 0.13.3.0

Downgrading to previous 0.13 releases is fully supported but is not recommended unless you have some serious issues with 0.13.3.0.

Notable changes

Number of false-positives from anti virus software should be reduced

We have removed all mining code from Windows and Mac binaries, which should avoid most of the false-positive alerts from anti virus software. Linux builds are not affected. The mining code found in dash-qt and dashd are only meant for regression/integration tests and devnets, so there is no harm in removing this code from non-linux builds.

Fixed an issue with invalid merkle blocks causing SPV nodes to ban other nodes

A fix that was introduces in the last minor version caused creation of invalid merkle blocks, which in turn cause SPV nodes to ban 0.13.2 nodes. This can be observed on mobile clients which have troubles maintaining connections. This release fixes this issue and should allow SPV/mobile clients to sync with upgraded nodes.

Hardened spork15 value to 1047200

We've hardened the spork15 block height to 1047200, which makes sure that syncing from scratch will always work, no matter if spork15 is received in-time or not.

Bug fixes/Other improvements

There are few bug fixes in this release:

  • Fixed an issue with transaction sometimes not being fully zapped when -zapwallettxes is used
  • Fixed an issue with the protx revoke RPC and REASON_CHANGE_OF_KEYS
