PIVX Core version 5.6.0 is now available from: https://github.com/pivx-project/pivx/releases

This is a new major version release, including various bug fixes and performance improvements, as well as updated translations.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: https://github.com/pivx-project/pivx/issues

Mandatory Update

PIVX Core v5.6.0 is a mandatory update for all users. This release contains new consensus rules and improvements that are not backwards compatible with older versions. Users will need to update their clients before enforcement of this update goes into effect.

Exchange address activation is scheduled to go into effect at the following time:

Mainnet: block 4,281,680. ~Feb 29th 2024.

Masternodes will need to be restarted from the controller wallet once both the masternode daemon and the controller wallet have been upgraded.

Note: In preparation for the new address type activation, upgraded peers will start rejecting non-upgraded peers a few days before the exchange address activation block height noted above, we recommend everyone to be updated at least a week prior to this time.

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/PIVX-Qt (on Mac) or pivxd/pivx-qt (on Linux).

Notable Changes

New Exchange Address Type

A new address type has been added for use by exchanges that require additional regulatory compliance. This new "exchange address" functions similarly to a regular PIVX address, but with one distinct difference; transactions originating from a SHIELD address are not allowed to be sent to said exchange addresses.

Creation of these new exchange addresses is available via the new getnewexchangeaddress RPC command. It takes an optional label (string) to set a label for the address if necessary. Functionality is the same comparatively to getnewaddress, getnewstakingaddress and getnewshieldaddress

Command Name Purpose Requires Unlocked Wallet?
getnewexchangeaddress Creates a new exchange address Yes

Command is detailed below:

  • getnewexchangeaddress
    Returns a new exchange address for receiving payments.
    Result:
    "address"    (string) The new exchange address.
    

Use Coin Control for masternode collateral creation

It is now possible to use the GUI's Coin Control feature to manually select which inputs you would like to use when creating a new masternode. The previous functionality of automatically selecting sufficient inputs remains however.

Generate a proposal payout address on-the-fly

Proposal creators can now choose to generate a new PIVX address to be used as a proposal's payout address directly within the proposal creation wizard.

Lockable sapling notes (SHIELD UTXOs)

The ability to "lock" SHIELD UTXOs has been added to both the RPC's lockunspent command as well as the GUI's Coin Control interface. This brings feature parity between SHIELD and Transparent UTXOs.

startmasternode RPC command cleanup

The startmasternode RPC command has had some long-time non-working options removed as part of a cleanup. Notably; the local and many options no longer exist. This is not a change in functionality, as both options have essentially done nothing for quite some time, and only led to confusion amongst users.

v5.5.0

PIVX Core version v5.5.0 is now available from: https://github.com/pivx-project/pivx/releases

This is a new major version release, including various bug fixes and performance improvements.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: https://github.com/pivx-project/pivx/issues

Mandatory Update

PIVX Core v5.5.0 is a mandatory update for all users. This release contains new consensus rules and improvements that are not backwards compatible with older versions. Users will need to update their clients before enforcement of this update goes into effect.

Network enforcement time is now set to epoch time of 1673568000
Date and time (GMT): Friday, January 13, 2023 12:00:00 AM
The "estimated" block height for this to occur is 3,701,423, which is only an estimate and surely to be inaccurate, but was requested to be stated here.

Reward changeover is currently scheduled to go into effect at the following time:

Mainnet: block 3,715,200. ~Jan 22nd 2023.

Masternodes will need to be restarted once both the masternode daemon and the controller wallet have been upgraded.
If you are running a Masternode over Tor, please read the "How To Upgrade" section.

Note: In preparation for the enforcement, upgraded peers will start rejecting non-upgraded peers few days before the changeover block height, we recommend everyone to be updated at minimum a week before the final time.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github: https://github.com/pivx-project/pivx/issues

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/PIVX-Qt (on Mac) or pivxd/pivx-qt (on Linux).

Sapling Parameters

In order to run, all versions after 5.0.0, PIVX Core requires two files, sapling-output.params and sapling-spend.params (with total size ~50 MB), to be saved in a specific location.

For the following packages, no action is required by the user:

  • macOS release dmg binaries will use the params that are bundled into the .app bundle.
  • Windows installer .exe will automatically copy the files in the proper location.
  • Linux PPA/Snap installs will automatically copy the files in the proper location.

For the other packages, the user must save the param files in the proper location:

  • macOS/Linux tar.gz tarballs include a bash script (install-params.sh) to copy the parameters in the appropriate location.
  • Windows .zip users need to manually copy the files from the share/pivx folder to the %APPDATA%\PIVXParams directory.
  • self compilers can run the script from the repository sources (params/install-params.sh), or copy the files directly from the params subdirectory to ~/.pivx-params.

Notable Changes

New Rewards Structure

Starting at block 3,715,200 The rewards structure is being adjusted after many months of discussion, analysis, and agreement from many in the community.

The new rewards are as follows:

Party Current Rewards New Rewards
Staker 2 4
Masternode 3 6
Budget1 1 10

1: Budget coins are ONLY created if there is a valid passing budget proposal requesting a specific amount of coins to be created. This occurs roughly once every 30 days.

Network Activity Toggle

The GUI wallet now allows for the user to enable/disable all network activity from the Settings page. This can be handy if, for example, you need to restart your router or modem.

RPC Changes

getblock additional verbosity

The getblock command now has an additional verbosity level. The command's second parameter has been changed from a boolean to and integer to support this.

  • If verbosity is 0, returns a string that is serialized, hex-encoded data for block 'hash'.
  • If verbosity is 1, returns an Object with information about block hash.
  • If verbosity is 2, returns an Object with information about block hash and information about each transaction.

getnewshieldaddress label support

The getnewshieldaddress command now supports an optional label parameter. If specified, the text label will be added to the wallet's address book.

New setnetworkactive command

A new setnetworkactive command has been added to enable/disable all network activity. The command specs are as follows:

setnetworkactive true|false
Enable/Disable all p2p network activity.

Result:
status: (boolean) The final network activity status

Examples:
setnetworkactive true
setnetworkactive false

New scantxoutset command

A new scantxoutset command has been added that allows for advanced searching of the unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs). As this is a highly advanced and complex command that won't apply to most end users, the full command spec won't be detailed here.

Please refer to the detailed spec by running help scantxoutset or refer to #2780.

  • Wallet startup screen presenting needed disk space per-network.
  • Fix "null" name for wallet automatic backups.
  • Fix bug during restart process that blocked the wallet for being automatically restarted.

Wallet

  • Improved transaction inputs selection, preferring coins that have fewer ancestors (preventing tx rejection for long mempool chains).

  • Much faster shield transactions processing during block reception (faster synchronization for large wallets).

RPC Server

Deprecated 'autocombinerewards' Command

The autocombinerewards RPC command was soft-deprecated in v5.3.0 and replaced with explicit setter/getter commands setautocombinethreshold/getautocombinethreshold. PIVX Core, by default, will no longer accept the autocombinerewards command, returning a deprecation error, unless the pivxd/pivx-qt is started with the -deprecatedrpc=autocombinerewards option.

This command will be fully removed in v6.0.0.

Shield address support for RPC label commands

The setlabel RPC command now supports a shield address input argument to allow users to set labels for shield addresses. Additionally, the getaddressesbylabel RPC command will also now return shield addresses with a matching label.

Specify optional label for getnewshieldaddress

The getnewshieldaddress RPC command now takes an optional argument label (string) to denote the desired label for the generated address.

P2P connection management

  • Peers manually added through the addnode option or addnode RPC now have their own
    limit of sixteen connections which does not compete with other inbound or outbound
    connection usage and is not subject to the maxconnections limitation.

  • New connections to manually added peers are much faster.

PIVX Core version v5.3.3 is now available from: https://github.com/pivx-project/pivx/releases.

This is a new optional but highly recommended point version release focused on solving the tier two network synchronization issues affecting v5.3 branch releases.

Technical details can be found in #2611 and #2622

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/PIVX-Qt (on Mac) or pivxd/pivx-qt (on Linux).

Important Note

Masternodes will need to be restarted once both the masternode daemon and the controller wallet have been upgraded.

Extra GUI changes

The non-translated "Welcome to %1 wallet" in the welcome wizard dialog bug has been solved by #2617.
