TRON releases java-tron v4.8.1 (Democritus) pre-release version, and the mandatory upgrade for the Nile testnet is officially launched

The TRON official announcement states that the java-tron v4.8.1 pre-release version has officially launched on the Nile testnet and is a mandatory upgrade, urging all Nile nodes to complete the update as soon as possible.

This upgrade covers multiple key modules including consensus core, virtual machine, network, event service, and API, aiming to further enhance the overall capabilities of the TRON network in terms of performance, security, and cross-architecture compatibility.

According to the official website of the Nile testnet, this upgrade has comprehensively improved the TRON network's performance in architecture compatibility, virtual machine security, network stability, event and API query capabilities, and development toolchain: new ARM architecture support has been added, the SELFDESTRUCT instruction has been adjusted with TIP-6780, optimizations have been made for P2P communication and event queries, and the block receipt and SR ticket query interfaces have been expanded. The toolchain upgrade further enhances the overall performance and maintainability of the system.

It is important to note that the new proposals in the Nile testnet GreatVoyage-v4.8.1 must be decided through on-chain governance voting before they can take effect on the testnet. Whether they will be enabled on the mainnet will depend on the upgrade progress and governance results.
