APM GUI

Created a web user interface for the APM, so that monitoring and interacting with it is more comfortable. It will be hosted on http://localhost:8080 by default.

NodeCore

  • Fixed JVM compatibility issues caused by one of the last Java updates.
  • PoP endorsements that contain BTC blocks already known by NodeCore will be rejected.
  • Improved clarity of some error messages in the CLI.

SPV

See: HowTo_run_SPV

  • Fixed an issue where newly created addresses could be lost* on restart. *(needed to be re-imported manually)
  • Fixed an issue where SPV did not discover peers besides those it was configured to connect to.
  • Improved SPV's behavior when creating many transactions continuously: these transactions will be rejected less often by full nodes.

VeriBlock PoP Miner

  • Upgraded Bitcoinj library version.
  • Added configurable basic authentication for the API.
  • Adjusted fee per KB formula to work more accurately with segwit transactions. In order to translate your currently configured fee values, divide them by 0.713043478 (they should become slightly higher).

Other

  • Highly decreased Bootstrap Downloader's memory usage.
