THORChain Upgrade Process Explained
THORChain has had several 3.21.x releases recently. The upgrade process involves building and testing the changes, then moving to the stagenet for baking. The release team picks a target block height for the upgrade, which exchanges and partners have at least a week to prepare. Nodes vote on the proposal, requiring a two-thirds supermajority. Once approved, nodes update their software automatically at the specified block height. If a node misses the upgrade, it can be banned by the operator if a supermajority has upgraded.
