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/85e6db1fdbdef00aa232c75199e10dc5fe9498f6

Highlights

  • Contract to contract: Smart contracts can now call other smart contracts, using the new inner transaction type appl
  • State Proof keys: online participants will now generate Post Quantum-secure Falcon keys when renewing online status. These keys will be used to generate Algorand State Proofs
  • Batch Verification: nodes can now group signatures in batches for faster verification

Important Note

Note: Users running a local consensus private network with vFuture may need to rebuild the local network when upgrading their MainNet node.
