With this release, we're making one more step closer towards mainnet release. Node now has possibility to set a payout address on blockchain and CLI has features to send settle earned tokens into own wallet at any time. As we're using test token, this is just a preparation step for future mainnet migration. Node runners should take no action for now.

Another important improvement is fast registration support. Consumers now don't have to wait until the registration transaction is mined to start consuming VPN services. On mainnet Ethereum this will decrease registration time from tens of minutes to couple of seconds.
