Upgrade validator version

Overview​

This page describes how to get the latest version of the software for the validator node.

Upgrades are usually backwards-compatible and can contain performance improvements, bug fixes or new features. It's recommended that every node is upgraded as soon as possible.

An upgrade, however, can also be a hardfork, which is usually not backwards-compatible. If your node fails to upgrade before a hardfork block occurs, the data on your node can differ from that on the network. Therefore, it's critical to upgrade your node before a hardfork occurs. All Ronin-planned hardforks are announced seven days in advance on our Discord server and the Ronin Newsletter.
