Protocol Changes
- The minimum validator stake has been set to a lower value. The small-stake validators that were kicked out during the shift to stateless validation will be able to rejoin the network.
- Better algorithm for validator kickouts
Non-protocol Changes
- Fix spammy messages about calculating gas for PromiseYield receipts.
- Don't crash when the CPU doesn't have SHA-NI instructions. It's still a hardware requirement, there is no guarantee that nodes without this instruction will be able to keep up with the network, but
neard
will now be able to run (slowly) on CPUs without this instruction.
