🟢 [ TESTNET ] Reminder for Upgrade to v11.1.0 on test-core-2

ETA: ~1 Hour 50 mins

🔴 [ MAINNET ] Emergency Patch for core-1 chain to 10.2.1

A critical bug was reported on pSTAKE a few hours ago which could result in the c-value being manipulated.

As a first step in preventing the bug being exploited, the host chains (Cosmos Hub and Osmosis) have been deactivated, i.e no activity via pSTAKE can happen on these chains. ICA delegation, unbondings, and redemptions (all ICA messaging) have been disabled. Deposits through the pSTAKE UI have been paused temporarily. The host chains will be re-activated post successful emergency patch.

We kindly request everyone to promptly install the emergency patch without delay.

Steps:
1. Swap to the latest binary
2. Update the Tracker

Tag: https://github.com/persistenceOne/persistenceCore/releases/tag/v10.2.1

Note:
1. This is a rolling patch (i.e. Patch can be deployed by validators/node operators without a chain-halt upgrade)
2. Postmortem & other details will be published post upgrade.


-- ‼️ TRACKER
To track the progress, we have created this sheet (https://shorturl.at/02456) where every validator can update their status.

🟡[ TESTNET ] Patch for test-core-2 chain to v11.1.1

This patch replicates the changes implemented on the mainnet earlier today, leading us to deploy the same fix on the testnet as well.

👉

Make sure you use the correct patch tag (v11.1.1) as testnet (test-core-2) and mainnet (core-1) are on a different versions.

Hence would kindly request all testnet validators to promptly install the patch.

Steps:
1. Swap to the latest binary
2. Once patched, kindly update your status by reacting ✅ on this Announcement on discord.

Tag: https://github.com/persistenceOne/persistenceCore/releases/tag/v11.1.1

Note:
1. This is a rolling patch
2. Postmortem & other details will be published post upgrade.

🟢 Wishing all the validators a joyous and prosperous New Year! 🎉

Reflecting on the intriguing journey of 2023, XPRT governance experienced a remarkable leap with the dynamic involvement of Stakers & Validators in over 25 key proposals and initiatives, marking a substantial ~300% increase from 2022. 🦾

Appreciation to all for being a part of the journey, anticipating numerous accomplishments and new heights in the upcoming year.

We're grateful for your resilience and support through numerous short-notice upgrades and critical moments during chain halts. Your understanding has been invaluable, and we look forward to the continued collaboration in the times ahead. 🙌

Best Regards!
Jeroen & Madhur

🟡 [ TESTNET ] Heads-up for an Upcoming Software upgrade on test-core-2 chain to v11.4.0

Hello Validators,
While testing the recently upgraded test-core-2 chain, we have spotted an error which can potential disturb the functionality of pSTAKE on testnet chain.

Hence we'll have to perform another upgrade right away today as the plan is to use this weekend to monitor the pSTAKE epochs on testnet and make sure everything's smooth.
This upgrade holds significance as it pertains to the upcoming launch of stkDYDX for pSTAKE.

Would also like to express our apologies for providing such short notice regarding the upgrade. Really appreciate your patience and help with this.

We'll share upgrade height, proposal, tag as soon as it's ready.

Thank you!
