We're excited to release one of the last beta releases before activating the live network!

While the protocol has remained mostly unchanged since version 5, major improvements on performance, a cleanup of the GUI, and improved diagnostics and logging will be most noticeable.

Test coins are available via the raiblocks.net page under the Start tab.

Detailed changes:

  • Separated blocks in to their own tables
  • Encrypted backups of wallets are saved to a json file
  • Changed block layout order to be more uniform
  • Database automatically resizes and we no longer use a spare-file hack on Windows
  • Multithreaded work generation for transactions
  • Reworked wallet so actions for an account are queued
  • Exposed numerous common functions via the JSON RPCs
  • Stomped out numerous synchronization issues
  • Gave wallet better diagnostic messages
  • Cleanup of all valgrind identified issues
  • Searching for pending blocks only verifies the head block for each account
  • Standardized ratios and how values are displayed in the wallet
  • Added generation of bootstrap blocks
