Stibbons Testnet Reset

Version 0.8.1 has been released a new genesis block, starting a new testnet: Stibbons. If you have an existing Ridcully node, it’s best to remove it completely and start a fresh node.

Console Wallet

• Wallets can now be recovered using seed words #2560
• Better transaction handling when switching base nodes #2558

Base Node

• Pruned mode, a core feature of Mimblewimble, has been fixed and allows fast synching of the blockchain while also using less storage space than a full archival node. #2544
• The maximum number of RandomX virtual machines can now be set in the config to enable running on low memory machines. #2567

SHA3 Mining Node

• The stand alone SHA3 miner logic has been improved to boost mining hash rate #2539
