🦉HTND 1.6.0 released and Rollback!:🦉

HTND v1.6.0 is a stability and protocol maintenance release focusing on improving node reliability and ensuring consistent network behavior. This update includes important fixes in IBD and block processing, as well as a protocol version upgrade.

Key Changes

Improved block relay stability:
Nodes will now ignore invalid or disqualified blocks instead of crashing during relay or verification. This significantly enhances network robustness when encountering malformed or modified blocks.

- IBD (Initial Block Download) fixes: Several issues affecting sync reliability and validation logic have been addressed.
- Protocol version upgrade: The protocol version has been incremented to reflect the latest network rules and behavior.
- Removed 1.5.x series optimizations: Experimental performance optimizations from the 1.5.x branch have been temporarily removed for re-evaluation and later testing.

Chain Rollback Notice

Due to a high number of disqualified blocks affecting chain integrity and sync consistency, we are performing a rollback to the following point: 2025-11-08 14:59:21.468 +0200 EET All nodes must re-sync from this height to ensure a clean and consistent chain state.

Recommended Action

- Upgrade immediately to v1.6.0.
- Re-sync your node from the specified rollback height.
- Verify your node is operating under the updated protocol version.
- Datadir in github

🦉 HTND 1.6.1 🦉

🦉 Big News for Hoosat Network (HTN) Holders! 🦉

@everyone We’re excited to share that @codecustard has officially offered to integrate HTN support directly into MetaMask and is already doing some testing! 🚀 To make this happen as fast as possible, the proposal includes a 50M HTN development grant that would go toward building the official HTN integration on Hoosat → seamless MetaMask compatibility.

This would mean:
✅ Add HTN to MetaMask with just one click
✅ Full wallet support (send/receive/swap/display)
✅ Instant visibility for the entire MetaMask user base (100M+ wallets)

Community thoughts? Should we move forward and fund this integration to bring HTN to the biggest wallet in crypto? We need to raise the 50M HTN for this to happen, like we raised 25M HTN for Hoodroid! Though now there won't be slots or returns from developer fee, just pure sanity to get HTN to the largest wallet!

You can push HTN to hoosat:qzk6atp6x4y7u7aq87jmu5ahxswp8xzwxaxc640pm690d8acgyrzk4q32yu2h and the HTN will be released to @codecustard once 50M has been reached or returned.

Let’s hear your voice! 🗣

🦉 Hoohive v0.1.0 released! 🦉

HooHive is bumped to 0.1.0 to include the new hoo_gpu_amd miner.

Hoo_gpu v1.2.6
Hoo_cpu v1.2.5
Hoo_gpu_amd v1.2.6
Hoominer v0.3.4

You can select which miners to start when using HooHive with --hoominer, --hoo_cpu, --hoo_gpu and or --hoo_gpu_amd in to the HiveOS Extra config argument field. You can use all four miners other custom parameters like normally you would. Only single connection arguments required, so no need to add them to the Extra config argument field seperately. Remember Hoohive only reports the first selected miners API information.

Happy mining. ⛏️

🦉Hoohash Miningcore available. 🦉

Elva published his Miningcore work some time ago on Hoohash, but there seemed to be some issues so I had to fix them on a fork.

Now I've created a guide how to mine Hoohash with Miningcore. Supports SOLO, PPLNS, PPLNSBF% payment schemes.

🦉 Hoosat Web Wallet update! 🦉


Hoosat web wallet has been upgraded to contain better compounding. It will try to compound every 15 seconds until less than 2 UTXO in the wallet. This is still untested and I will fix it if issues arise.

🦉 This pruning point modification issue solved! 🦉

$HTN wait for next non breaking release of HTND tomorrow, but I've now checked that calculating UTXO diff is faster from acceptance data than iterating through the UTXO diff children.

Thinking that the latest iterating the UTXO diff children took 5 minutes, from the acceptance data it took 4 seconds. Both produced same UTXO diff, so either function is acceptable to be used.

🦉Web wallet back working! 🦉

When I made the compound loop. I had forgotten that I had some unresolved development in github tha was not working. I backtracked those changes and the webwallet is back functional, but still does not have better compouding.

So wasteful work today on that front. Apologies for the webwallet downtime.
