Releases: bittorrent/go-btfs
btfs-v3.0.0
The codename of BTFS mainnet v3.0 is Heisenberg. Werner Karl Heisenberg, a German physicist, one of the founders of quantum mechanics and a representative figure of the "Copenhagen School".

btfs-v2.3.5
The mainnet codename of BTFS v2.3.5 is Gauss, a German mathematician, physicist, astronomer, and geodesist.

Non-mandatory upgrade
Changes
- Added support for BTIP-52, which aims to enhance data privacy of file sharing for greater security. #398
- Support file encryption and decryption, guarantee the file added and encrypted can only be decrypted by the shared host. f7c3f83
- Add
btfs encryptandbtfs decryptcommands, utilizing ECIES as the asymmetric algorithm for file encryption and decryption. Although asymmetric encryption may reduce system performance compared to symmetric methods, it provides enhanced convenience for node operation. We have a simple test to prove that it's suitable for our scenario: benchmark. 7bb21c3 - Optimize BTIP-25 and provide support for loose mode in the AWS S3 API to enhance availability when integrating with other AWS S3 compatible tools like
rclone, which prevents refusal of requests if the API receives an unknown header or URL parameter. #397 BTIP-25 - Some bug issue fixes. #382 #383

btfs-v2.3.1
This version is codenamed, Boyle. Boyle was an Irish natural philosopher who is best known for his work on gases and the development of Boyle’s law, which describes the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas.
Notices
It is recommended that you upgrade, as this version offers significant performance improvements and reduces resource consumption by a significant amount
After upgrade to this version, if you find that your node connectivity has deteriorated, you can execute the following command:
btfs config Swarm.ResourceMgr.Limits.System --json '{"ConnsInbound":0}'
Then restart your btfs node.
This command will help you unblock the inbound connections to improve connectivity and thus increase the chances of getting a contract.
Changes

btfs-v2.3.0
This version is codenamed, Ohm. Georg Simon Ohm was a German physicist and mathematician. As a school teacher, Ohm began his research with the new electrochemical cell, invented by Italian scientist Alessandro Volta. Using equipment of his own creation, Ohm found that there is a direct proportionality between the potential difference (voltage) applied across a conductor and the resultant electric current. This relation is called Ohm's law, and the ohm, the unit of electrical resistance, is named after him.
