Parity 1.8.0 includes a critical consensus-relevant fix for the Byzantium hard-fork... Just kidding!

We are happy to announce our newest Parity 1.8 release. Among others, it enables the following features:

  • Full Whisper v6 integration.
  • Trezor hardware-wallet support.
  • WASM contract support.
  • PICOPS KYC-certified accounts and vouching for community-dapps.
  • Light client compatibility for Proof-of-Authority networks.
  • Transaction permissioning and permissioned p2p-connections.
  • Full Byzantium-fork compatibility.
  • Full Musicoin MCIP-3 UBI-fork compatibility.

Further, users upgrading from 1.7 should acknowledge the following changes:

  • The chain-engine was further abstracted and chain-specs need to be upgraded. #6134 #6591
  • network_id was renamed to chain_id where applicable. #6345
  • trace_filter RPC method now comes with pagination. #6312
