# `chainweb-node` Changelog

## 2.0 (2020-07-11)

This version replaces all previous versions. Any prior version will stop working
on **2020-07-16T00:00:00Z**. Node administrators must upgrade to this version
before that date.

This version will stop working on **2020-08-13T00:00:00Z**.

This version includes the fork that adds 10 additional chains to Chainweb
resulting in 20 chains in total. The fork will occur on

* Testnet at block height 332,604, which is expect to happen around
2020-07-28 16:00:00 UTC, and
* Mainnet at block height 852,054, which is expected to happen around
2020-08-20 16:00:00 UTC.

The mining API of chainweb-node will start serving work items for the new chains
starting at above block heights for the respective network. The mempool and pact
service APIs will accept requests already some time before the transition. POW
difficulties will re-adjust within a few hours after the transition. During that
time block rates may be slightly higher or lower than usual. Node operators and
miners are encouraged to participate in the transition of Testnet as a dress
rehearsal for the mainnet transition.

Other changes:

* Full support for [Rosetta](https://www.rosetta-api.org).
(#1050, #1077, #1079, #1093)
* Support for Pact continuations in `local` queries. (#1080)
* Make Pact service more stable and fix a memory leak. (#1104, #1100)
* Fix a Pact bug related to module namespaces. (#1107)
* Make `info` endpoint show currently in use chains. (#1099)
* An improved difficulty adjustment algorithm to support the graph transition
and improve overall performance. Some research background regarding the new
algorithm can be found [in this document](https://github.com/larskuhtz/ChainwebSimulations/blob/master/Results.ipynb).
(#1075)

Beside these major changes, the release includes several smaller bug fixes and
performance improvements.
