I am a node operator/miner, what do I need to do?

If you have a running node, you need to

  • Suspend the running operation of the node
  • Replace the executable file named “conflux” in the run directory of the original node program with the Conflux executable file of the Conflux v2.2.5-testnet node program.
  • Restart the operation of the node
    If you start a new node, you can download the latest version of Conflux v2.2.5-testnet and run it.

What will happen if I do not upgrade the nodes or refuse to upgrade?

This upgrade aims to improve node stability, it’ll be fine if you do not upgrade.
