Summary

The team worked on Chaosnet stability, testnet fixes, and multi-chain tweaks. Midgard was also updated. There are a lot of breaking changes to Multichain now, from events, endpoints and even transaction memos. Developers building on Multichain should track the change log and be prepared to adapt.

Releases

THORNode V0.17.0 was released with several bug fixes, new slash logic and a store change for unaccounted for balances.

Midgard V0.6.0 was released with some bug fixes and optimisations.
