On Friday, the Thorchain team announced via X that the Thorchain V.3.19.0 upgrade is now live on mainnet. v3.19.0 introduces Monero support, affiliate revenue sharing, faster swaps, stronger security, and key infrastructure upgrades that pave the way for a safer, more resilient network.
THORChain v3.18 enables Monero chain support. The next few weeks will be focused on testing and fine-tuning the remaining details before node operators vote to activate the chain.
DASH swaps now confirm much faster. A feature called InstantSend locks the transaction so THORChain doesn't have to wait around for block confirmations. Wallets and apps that send swaps to THORChain can now earn a share of the revenue they bring in.
Two earlier security fixes are now being made public as the disclosure process moves along. Both tightened how the network checks and validates transactions.
A temporary check that confirms every validator's security keys are intact before trading resumes. There's also a status page so operators can watch it happen.
Stops certain vault transactions from firing while signing is deliberately paused, keeping everything in line with the careful recovery steps.
