v2.4.2 Production Release of the Mochimo Network

The Mochimo Core Contributor Team is proud to announce the release of code version 2.4.2, which contains over 300 commits that have been in the works for more than 6 months. While this release is an optional upgrade, it contains multiple improvements, including the following highlights:

• Implementation of CI / CD workflows for streamlined test and build utilities
• Combined Solo/Pool Mining capabilities with up to 60% improvement in hash rate
• Fix for rare occurrence of candidate block solves not passing validation
• Reduced CPU consumption when mirroring transactions
• Streamlined routines with less system calls

Production Release of the v2.4.1 Mochimo Network

This is the Production Release, v2.4.1 of the Mochimo Codebase, and features major improvements to lookup speed for transactions, improvements to network stability, bug fixes, and additional improvements to the multi-destination transaction subsystem.

This version is fully backward compatible with the v2.4 code version, and is therefore considered "optional" for all node operators.
