Version 1.5.1 of the Chia reference client is now available to download. This release includes some under the hood improvements and fun new features.

Performance optimizations:

  • Wallet sync performance improvements when connected to a fully synced local trusted node or while in wallet only mode syncing to get much better speed and accuracy when syncing wallets with many coins and transactions. Wallet users will only see the full benefit if connected to a 1.5.1 node.
  • Full node sync performance improvements to decrease full node sync times as well as reduce system resources required to run a node and farm efficiently
  • Wallet syncing for the last used wallet key will begin as soon as the wallet service is started

NFT related updates:

  • NFT for CAT trading support in the GUI - create or take offers trading CATs for NFTs in the graphical user interface
  • Show/hide NFTs - Hide NFTs in your wallet so you don’t have to look at the NFT spam that is sent to you, or if you want to show off your collection without revealing everything
  • Send NFT to burn address - Send unwanted NFTs to an unspendable address
  • Handling wallet reorgs gracefully when dealing with NFTs

Other wallet updates

  • View the peers that you are connected to when clicking on the Wallet status indicator
  • GUI preferences are now stored in the mainnet directory to make them easier to find and if you wanted to keep different preferences for different GUI sessions

Deprecating legacy keyring support

  • All users starting this version will be required to migrate to the new keyring support using keyring.yaml in preparation for a future release that will fully deprecate legacy keyring support
  • The new keyring support was introduced in 1.3 and most users will have gone through the migration when generating a new key or when importing an existing key
