v4.0.8

Optional Upgrade

Updates

• Fix EVM log index
• Stability improvements
• Node health RPC getnodestatusinfo
• EVM Filter improvments
• EVM database integrity checks
• Improve gas fee and fee history

Upgrade Notes

• From v4.0.6/v4.0.7: if EVM logs used then -reindex, fresh sync or bootstrap from snapshot required.
• From all other v4.0.x versions: drop in-upgrade.
• Older nodes, require a fresh sync or bootstrap from snapshots.
• From pre-releases (v4-rc, v4-beta, etc): -reindex, fresh sync or bootstrap from snapshot required.
• For nodes that are being restored from recent snapshot, as with all updates before: -rescan for the wallet txs and additionally -spv_resync for users who hold BTC. If either isn't used, they may not be shown in the wallet until rescanned/resynced.
• defid now requires glibc 2.29 or greater to run. You may need to update your OS if you are running an older version. (Ubuntu 18, Debian 10, etc.)
