This is a release candidate.

  • Includes api_version 2 general availability.
    • The "DeliverMax" field reflects the maximum amount that the payment may deliver. To get the amount of a payment, use the "delivered_amount" field. "DeliverMax" is now provided for all Payment transactions, and successful transactions include "delivered_amount".
    • In api_version: 2, the "Amount" field is removed. In most cases, the field you actually want is "delivered_amount". But if you really want the field formerly known as "Amount", then you can use "DeliverMax".
    • In api_version: 2, "ledger_index" is always returned as an integer (not a string).
  • Notable performance improvements in TPS (transactions per second): up to 4,300 TPS.
  • XLS-38 sidechains support.
    • This is a large change and adds significant new functionality to the protocol.
  • XLS-40 decentralized identity (DID) support.
  • New server_definitions method.
  • Many aspects of the code have been refactored and changed since the previous major version.
