Re: [Terracoin-announce] terracoin update 0.1.3-36
From: TerraCoin <terracoin76@gm...> - 2013-04-15 12:51
Terracoin update 0.1.3-36 is now available for download at our
sourceforge and github repositories.
This build addresses some issues in the difficulty adjustment algorithm,
recently revealed by the massive adoption on the live blockchain.
The detailed change log will be published here once the patch is fully
applied on the network, here is a summary :
- overall network difficulty will respond slightly slower to big
variations in hashrate power
- averaged data used to compute targets will now be capped and adjusted
symmetrically, lowering the effect of malformed/erroneous inputs
- target will be capped in a symmetrical way
Once fully deployed, this build will provide more resilience to hashing
spikes and narrow down the difficulty variations.
Due to the impacted features, this build will be *MANDATORY* on block
_110322_.
This should occur in 2.5 to 6 days from now.
Sorry for the 3 mandatory updates in a row, the huge hashing variations
have to be contained so the whole blocks generation rate gets close to a
sane value.
Again, the full, detailed changelog will be exposed here once users
upgraded.
