Live Upgrades

Track active and upcoming network upgrades, governance proposals, and activation timelines

Release Binaries

Download the latest and prior injectived and peggo binaries from InjectiveFoundation/injective-core
Validators: Before upgrading, read the Validator Troubleshooting Guide for critical safety rules, common failure modes, and recovery procedures. Mishandling priv_validator_state.json during upgrades can lead to double-signing and permanent tombstoning.If you are not already a member of the verified validator channels, reach out to the Injective team via Discord to get added. Upgrade coordination, emergency snapshots, and incident communication happen in these channels.

​
Chain Upgrades

Injective periodically undergoes software upgrades. When a chain upgrade governance proposal is passed, a block height will be specified at which all nodes will automatically panic and stop running. At this point, the upgraded injectived binaries can be installed, and the node can be restarted.

​
Node Upgrade Directions

To summarize, follow these steps to upgrade your node:
  1. Sync your node to the block height predetermined by the upgrade governance proposal.
  2. The node will automatically panic/stop at the predetermined upgrade height.
  3. Remove the old binaries and install the new release binaries.
  4. Restart the node.
If the upgrade fails or a sentry node becomes corrupted, see the Snapshots page for options to resync your node from a fresh snapshot.

Upgrading with Cosmovisor

To manage chain upgrades, use Cosmovisor.

Node Maintenance (Managing Storage)

As Injective state grows, your disk space may fill up. It’s recommended you periodically prune the chain data by downloading new snapshots. Beyond the overhead on the disk, the node is more performant when the chain state is smaller. Injective validators take daily light snapshots that you can use to clean the chain state, which grows at about 10-15 GB daily. These snapshots are normally only around 2-3 GB. We recommend pruning the chain data every 300-400 GB. For snapshot download links and usage instructions, see the Snapshots page on the Chain Portal. For directions on syncing your node, see Join A Network.
