Behaviour changes

Starting v15.1.0 all users must have at least 1 ATOM staked in order to cast a vote on a governance proposal.

Votes from accounts whose staked amounts are < 1 ATOM will be rejected.

REST/RPC Changes

DenomOwners

The DenomOwners query is not supported on the Cosmos Hub chain.

  • querying <RPC_ADDR>.cosmos/bank/v1beta1/denom_owners/{denom} always returns an empty result.

Querying latest block

curl <RPC>/blocks/latest no longer works and returns {"code":12,"message":"Not Implemented","details":[]}

The endpoint was moved to: <RPC>/cosmos/base/tendermint/v1beta1/blocks/latest

CLI Changes

Genesis commands

gaiad no longer uses a custom genesis commands and instead relies on the commands defined in the x/genutil module.

These queries no longer work:

gaiad gentx
gaiad collect-gentx
gaiad validate-genesis
gaiad add-genesis-account

Use the genesis subcommands instead:

gaiad genesis gentx
gaiad genesis collect-gentx
gaiad genesis validate-genesis
gaiad genesis add-genesis-account
gaiad genesis migrate

Governance commands

Governance commands are aligned with cosmos-sdk v0.47.x x/gov module.

submit-legacy-proposal

Some proposal types can be submitted using the gaiad tx gov submit-legacy-proposal command:

gaiad tx gov submit-legacy-proposal

Available Commands:
cancel-software-upgrade Cancel the current software upgrade proposal
change-reward-denoms Submit a change reward denoms proposal
consumer-addition Submit a consumer addition proposal
consumer-removal Submit a consumer chain removal proposal
ibc-upgrade Submit an IBC upgrade proposal
param-change Submit a parameter change proposal
software-upgrade Submit a software upgrade proposal
update-client Submit an update IBC client proposal

Most cosmos-sdk modules no longer allow their parameters to be upgraded using a param-change proposal. Use the corresponding MsgUpgradeParams message instead and create a JSON file proposal using draft-proposal (listed below).

List of proposals available for submission via submit-legacy-proposal will be further decreased in subsequent releases.

More information is available in cosmos-sdk x/gov docs.

draft-proposal

gaiad tx gov draft-proposal command is available. You can use this command to create a draft proposal in JSON format.

  • more information is available in the cosmos-sdk x/gov docs

submit-proposal

gaiad tx gov submit-proposal command is available. Use draft-proposal (listed above) to create a proposal JSON and submit it as a transaction.
