Please be prepared to vote to enable TVM Update on December 12 at 9:00 UTC.
More info »
Please check that your node software is updated to the latest version (it should be on 51baec4 commits, both are fine). If your node is outdated, upgrade immediately.
If 75%+ of the positive votes of the validators are collected in two rounds of 6 rounds, then TVM Update will be enabled.

Jetton bridge deployed in April mints jettons with tunable parameters, in particular network config controls minimal storage fee, computation fee and some other parameters which every request to jetton wallet should ensure. Initial parameters in config were chosen very conservatively and ensures that jetton will work even in the case of much higher gas fees.
Since jetton bridge release it became clear that these parameters can be loosen, moreover this loosening will facilitate a few popular protocols on TON. Config update adjusts bridge token parameters by making min_storage_fee lower from 0.01 TON -> 0.008 TON, which will meet all requirements

Please schedule a time on March 30 from 09:00 UTC to 23:59 UTC for Ethereum-TON token bridge launch voting.
You will need to send your vote in that time frame.
Using this bridge, users can transfer any ERC-20 tokens (for example, USDC or USDT) originally created on Ethereum to the TON Blockchain, with the ability to return them back.
The transferred tokens will be represented on TON as regular Jettons so that TON services, such as DEXs, will be able to work with them without any additional modifications.
You can get acquainted with smart contracts here and here.
We have thoroughly tested smart contracts, which have also been verified by a public cracking contest and several audit teams.
Some validators with old cmake may encounter compilation errors. This issue can be resolved by update of cmake to version 3.13 or newer.

We are constantly working on the security and stability of the TON network. Based on our work, as well as the audits made, we propose to adjust some network parameters. Read more here.

Please update your node software to the new version (commit e37583e):
— in mytonctrl run update then upgrade.
— if you don't use mytonctrl please manually rebuild code from master branch of https://github.com/ton-blockchain/ton.
Update your validators one by one, don't update all at the same time.
Informing: gas limit increased
The number of TON validators is growing rapidly. Over the previous two months, the number of validators increased by ~30% and almost reached three hundred.
To better adjust network parameters for increased activity of TON users and validators we scheduled Network Config Adjustment in March.
But the growth of the network has exceeded our wildest expectations, and it was necessary to urgently update some parameters in order to continue the smooth operation. In particular, special_gas_limit and block_gas_limit of ConfigParam 20 were set to 25m and 27m, respectively. Full information can be found here.
These parameters, as well as some others, are planned to be overwritten by validator voting later this month.
This message is for informational purposes only and no action is required. All smart contracts, validators, etc. work without changes.

Please schedule a time tommorow on February 21 from 06:00 UTC to 15:00 UTC for community proposal for tokenomics optimization voting.
