SilentDragon v1.0.0 "In Zdust We Trust"

This is a MANDATORY update to support our migration to z2z and our Blocktime Halving in November 2020. Please upgrade ASAP!

Hush full nodes will now attempt to use encrypted (TLS aka SSL) connections when speaking to peers, increasing the privacy at the network layer for the entire network. In particular, encrypted connections make it harder to determine the IP address of a node which originally
submits or creates transactions to a global passive network adversary.

  • 🎉 Includes Hush 3.5.1 (which includes the mandatory 3.5.0 changes)
  • 🔒 hushd tab now shows local node TLS support and number of TLS connections
  • 🚀 Full support for z2z and Blocktime Halving at Block 340K

TLS 1.3 Details

We use the latest release of OpenSSL 1.1.1h and disable all ciphersuites except two:

TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256

on startup, every node randomly prefers one ciphersuite or the other, which forces the network to use both ciphersuites, instead of all nodes using the first in the list.
