Algorand 3.16.2

IMPORTANT This release requires a protocol upgrade. This release contains a consensus protocol upgrade, which implements the following spec: https://github.com/algorandfoundation/specs/tree/abd3d4823c6f77349fc04c3af7b1e99fe4df699f

Overview

This update includes a drop in round time of ~0.4 seconds, a robustness improvement to State Proofs, and several developer-oriented features in the AVM, simulate, and devmode.

⚠️ In order to avoid opcode ambiguity, access to assets or applications with an ID less than 256 within a contract will fail immediately. For new networks, asset and application IDs will now start at 1000 to avoid any potential issues due to this change. ⚠️

What's New

• 🚀 Round times are reduced by 400 milliseconds. See here for details.
• 👥 Group resource sharing for app calls: access to resources (assets, apps, accounts, boxes) during smart contract evaluation is shared across the transaction group. See here for details.
• 🕦 Devmode timestamp control: when running a network in devmode, the block timestamp can now be manipulated with a new API. See here for details.
• 🔮 More logging and opcode budget in simulate: when calling the simulate endpoint, there are now options to let the algod evaluate the transaction group with much higher limits on logging and on opcode budget. See here for details.
  • ⚠️ This release contains a breaking change to the simulate endpoint. See #5292 for more information and implementation details
• 📒 Transaction group updates API: a new algod API that returns the ledger updates caused by individual transaction groups. See here for details.
• ➕ Readiness Endpoint: algod has a new supplementary /ready endpoint to benefit any K8's deployment as a readiness probe. The endpoint will return a 200 response code once algod has caught up to the latest state.
• 📦 Algod Docker Container: algod container usage just got easier! The container now supports node profiles to simplify running common configurations in place of mounting a custom config.json file. There are also changes to make mounting a data directory more consistent. See DockerHub for more details.

Algorand 3.15.0

Overview

This release includes the new simulate endpoint for evaluating transactions, networking optimizations, and lays the groundwork for better configuration management and conduit support.

⚠️ Minor breaking change for goal users: The goal node catchup functionality when run with no arguments has changed. You will now be prompted to confirm the action if a catchpoint label is not fed as an argument to the catchup command. Please revisit any automation around fast-catchup a node and ensure they are properly adapted.

What's New

• Connection deduplication: improved networking code
  • Relay Runners -- enable this feature by setting the node PublicAddress config.json value to its public endpoint address (eq. to SRV address including port number) to optimize its bandwidth usage
• Simulate endpoint: local evaluation of transactions
  • Ever wondered what effects your transaction could have on the blockchain state? This feature is for you! Now you can evaluate your transactions before sending them out to the network. See here for more information.
• Profiles for algocfg: a set of profiles for configuration defaults
  • Node configurations can be tricky! Use this feature to get started on properly configuring your node.
• Algod follower mode: a new operation mode for use with upcoming conduit release
• New private network default template and automatic start
  • Executing goal network create --rootdir "ANY_DIRECTORY" --start will create and start a private network using the default private network template. This is great for testing your dApps on a private network before deploying them on a public network.

Refer to our developer release article here for more information on these features!
