THORChain is gearing up for a Mainnet upgrade to version 3.6.0, set to roll out at block 21,210,000 on May 22, 2025, around 17:00 UTC. The focus of this update? Well, it’s all about those Rujira contract checksum updates, as per the announcement on Medium. Sounds like they’re getting things in order for a smoother network operation.
Now, this upgrade isn’t bringing any major fixes or changes that would break consensus. It’s more of a routine maintenance gig aimed at boosting efficiency and security. Validators are key players in this game — they need to give the upgrade proposal a thumbs up using the command line interface (CLI). So, if you’re a validator, get ready to cast your vote and make sure it’s a ‘yes’ for the v3.6.0 upgrade proposal.
For the tech buffs out there, detailed release notes for v3.6.0 can be found on GitLab. And if you want to keep a close eye on the target block for the upgrade, RuneScan is the place to be. Oh, and a little heads up from THORChain: block times can be a bit unpredictable, so the upgrade timing might shift a bit. Stay tuned to official channels for the latest updates on the schedule.
Community involvement is key for THORChain, so they’re encouraging folks to stay connected through platforms like Twitter Spaces, THORChain University, and GrassRoots Crypto update videos. And hey, if you’re up for some real-time chatter, Telegram and Discord are where it’s at for discussions and updates. So, mark your calendars for May 22 and get ready for the Mainnet upgrade saga to unfold.
