Ixo v2.0.0 🚀
This is a major release, aimed at enhancing the functionality of the Ixo chain to amplify its impact.
Key Features and Enhancements:
-
Packet-forward-middleware integrated:
Developed by Strangelove, is a new module that enables IBC packets to be routed across multiple chains with a single transaction,
simplifying the process of moving assets or data between blockchain networks. -
Async-ICQ integrated:
Interchain Queries enable blockchains to query the state of an account on another chain without the need for ICA auth. ICS-27,
Interchain Accounts, is used for IBC transactions, e.g. to transfer coins from one interchain account to another, whereas Interchain
Queries are used for IBC Queries, e.g. to query the balance of an account on another chain. In short, ICA is cross chain writes while ICQ
is cross chain reads. -
Dependancy updates:
Includes cosmos-sdk to v0.45.16, ibc-go to v4.4.1 (includes Huckleberry security fix), wasmvm to v1.2.4 (includes Cherry security fix),
changed consensus engine from Tendermint to Cometbft -
Fixes:
Fix gas context issue (gas estimation and usage was very low). Minor fixes.
