• GUI + CLI + ASB: The Monero RPC pool now caches TCP and Tor streams
• ASB: The default configuration has been adjusted to accept Bitcoin transactions as finalized after one block (one confirmation). Bitcoin double spends are essentially impossible for practical purposes. If one is swapping extremely large amounts, they can consider dialing bitcoin.finality_confirmations to 2 or 3. This will however force the swap to take much longer to complete, and also increase the risk of a refund being made.
• ASB: The monero.monero_node_pool flag has been removed from the config. If you want to use the Monero Node Pool, you can now do so simply by omitting monero.daemon_url from the config.
• ASB: The asb now exposes a JSON-RPC endpoint at which it can receive commands. The asb-controller binary implements the client side of the JSON-RPC protocol. The JSON-RPC protocol is currently entirely read-only. This means it cannot be used to withdraw funds or change configurations. The JSON-RPC endpoint is disabled by default. It can be enabled by passing the --rpc-bind-port 127.0.0.1:9944 and --rpc-bind-host 127.0.0.1 flags to the asb binary.
• CONTROLLER: A new experimental asb-controller binary is now shipped. It is a CLI and REPL tool to interact with an ASB over JSON-RPC. It still has limited functionality, but will be extended in the future. Currently, it can be used to:
  • Get the primary address of th Monero wallet
  • Get the balance of the Monero wallet
  • Get the balance of the Bitcoin wallet
  • Get the list of external multiaddresses that the ASB is listening on
  • Query the currently active peer-to-peer connections
  • Get a basic list of swaps from the database
• ORCHESTRATOR: A new experiemental orchestrator binary is now shipped.
• The orchestrator is a lightweight tool to generate a production grade environement for running ASBs.
• It guides the user through a wizard and generates a custom Docker compose file which specifies a secure Docker environment for running ASBs.
• This will continue to evolve over time, and we will document this thoroughly once it is more stable.
• CLI + ASB + GUI: Fixed an issue where the Monero RPC pool would not handle timeouts correctly.
