Release v1.8.0
v1.8.0 - 2022-03-17
Summary
Provenance 1.8.0 is focused on improving the fee structures for transactions on the blockchain. While the Cosmos SDK has traditionally offered a generic fee structure focused on gas/resource utilization, the Provenance blockchain has found that certain transactions have additional long term costs and value beyond simple resources charges. This is the reason we are adding the new MsgFee module which allows governance based control of additional fee charges on certain message types.
NOTE: The second major change in the 1.8.0 release is part of the migration process which removes many orphaned state objects that were left in 1.7.x chains. This cleanup process will require a significant amount of time to perform during the green upgrade handler execution. The upgrade will print status messages showing the progress of this process.

Client Breaking
-
Enforce a maximum gas limit on individual transactions so that at least 20 can fit in any given block. #681
Previously transactions were only limited by their size in bytes as well as the overall gas limit on a given block.With this update transactions must be no more than 5% of the maximum amount of gas allowed per block when a gas limit
per block is set (this restriction has no effect when a gas limit has not been set). The current limits on Provenance
mainnet are 60,000,000 gas per block which will yield a maximum transaction size of 3,000,000 gas using this new AnteHandler
restriction.
