#XELIS Release v1.18.0 is now out! 



This update is not mandatory, but it is recommended to update.
See NOTES section on release page for upgrade.

Thank you everyone for being around and supporting us, it is really motivating and we're really happy to move forward!

Highlights
- Fast sync has been improved  (again) to be much more scalable with the upcoming Smart Contracts.
- Better compatibility with low-end devices: Our goal is to be able to run the node on ANY device, that's why some parts of the P2P and a new DB backend has been implemented to align with our target.
- Better P2P blocks/transactions propagation: reduced block propagation latency which should result in reduced orphaned / side blocks count (which is also required in case we move to a faster block time)
- Better P2P stability with few internal changes (including the upgraded peerlist for faster new peer finding)
- Configurable P2P Proxy in case you want to fully hide your IP Address to your outgoing peers (SOCKS),
- Configurable max outgoing peers (set to X by default, while the maximum total peers stay to 32). You can increase it if wanted, but best is to make your node a public one so others peers can connect to your node and helps to decentralize the network even more.
- Metrics are now available on xelis_daemon for those who want to build a Grafana dashboard for monitoring your node(s), and can be improved over time if you have ideas on what else can be tracked.
- XVM (XELIS Virtual Machine) improvements including new stdlib api
- XSWD Relayer (WIP) implementation for future support of dApps across differents devices through a secure (encrypted) channel.
- ZK Proofs verification optimized for faster TXs verifications
- Improved TXs batching verification
- and more
