🔉 Zilfam!

As you might be aware, our team has been rigorously testing the 9.3.0 candidate releases on the testnet in recent weeks. These updates have successfully passed our rigorous acceptance criteria, indicating we are nearing code completion. The current v9.2.5 network continues to operate effectively and stably. Our priority is to ensure a smooth and trouble-free upgrade to v9.3.0, particularly considering the timing around the holiday season.

Therefore, after careful consideration, we have decided to postpone the update to January 3rd. This extension will allow us additional time to ensure that miners and Staked Seed Node (SSN) operators can seamlessly integrate into the network. We encourage those who haven't yet utilized our miner rehearsal network to get in touch for access.

Additionally, we will provide access to our comprehensive internal rehearsal network for extended testing and conduct further performance assessments. We are committed to the January 3rd date for releasing v9.3.0, unless we encounter any critical issues.

We understand this change may impact your operations, so please do not hesitate to reach out if this poses any challenges for you. For those celebrating the holiday season, we wish you a joyful and restful time.

Thank you for your continued support.

Warm regards,
Zilliqa Core Team
