  • dep!: bump CometBFT (resetting proposer priority) in #134

Full Changelog: v8.0.0...v8.1.0

Context, TL;DR

The v7.1.0 patch applied August 12th UTC 12:00 was designed to reset validator priority at a specific height. Although this patch was anticipated to prevent priority mismatches in the short term, we have confirmed that the issue has recurred. In addition to that, numerous validators failed to reset properly at the specified height.

To address this, we are now applying the v8.1.0 patch. Unlike the previous patch that reset the priority once at a specific height, this patch includes functionality to reset the priority every 100 blocks and every 20 rounds. Therefore, even if the patch cannot be applied at a specific halt height, it will not cause an issue.

There were concerns about artificially resetting the priority. However, the root issue is that the validator's priority is not included in the state. Once an official hotfix is released, this problem should not be a major concern.
