Etica

Release Repository: https://github.com/etica/core-geth/releases/tag/meticulous-eticav2-phase1

For reminder, every Etica network upgrade requires majority of nodes of the network to accept the upgrade by upgrading their nodes. There is no central entity that can enforce an upgrade on Etica network.

Etica network upgrade v2

Eticav2 Upgrade instructions

1. Install Go version 1.21.12

sudo apt-get update
wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.21.12.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -xvf go1.21.12.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo mv go /usr/local
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export PATH=$GOPATH/bin:$GOROOT/bin:$PATH
source ~/.profile
go version

2. Pull code updates
If this is an update (you already have core-geth code), make sure you're in core-geth directory and pull the code. For this run:
```
cd core-geth
```
```
git pull
```
Otherwise if this is a new node and you never pulled the code yet. Run:
```
git clone https://github.com/etica/core-geth.git 
```
3. Build from source code
make sure you're in core-geth directory and then run:
```
sudo apt install make
```
```
sudo apt-get update
```
```
make geth
```

4. Update your launch script
Eticav2 requires some edits to your geth command line launch scripts:

replace --networkid 61803 by --etica
replace --rpcvhosts="*" by --http.vhosts="*"
If this is a mining node, add --miner.etherbase="0x99Bea839c8c4F5ed756c29157705650a08068685" (set it to the address receiving the block rewards)
remove --gas.target

For instance:

./build/bin/geth --networkid 61803 --nat extip:127.0.0.1 --datadir "./eticanode1" --http --http.addr "localhost" --http.port "8545" --port "30303" --allow-insecure-unlock --http.corsdomain "*"  --rpc.allow-unprotected-txs  --http.api eth,web3,personal,net --rpcvhosts=* --ipcpath "~/.ethereum/geth.ipc" --bootnodes "enode://b0e97d2f1a37b2035a34b97f32fb31ddd93ae822b603c56b7f17cfb189631ea2ef17bfbed904f8bc564765634f2d9db0a128835178c8af9f1dde68ee6b5e2bf7@167.172.47.195:30303"
Becomes:
./build/bin/geth --etica --nat extip:127.0.0.1 --datadir "./eticanode1" --http --http.addr "localhost" --http.port "8545" --port "30303" --allow-insecure-unlock --http.corsdomain "*" --rpc.allow-unprotected-txs  --http.api eth,web3,personal,net --http.vhosts=* --ipcpath "~/.ethereum/geth.ipc" --bootnodes "enode://b0e97d2f1a37b2035a34b97f32fb31ddd93ae822b603c56b7f17cfb189631ea2ef17bfbed904f8bc564765634f2d9db0a128835178c8af9f1dde68ee6b5e2bf7@167.172.47.195:30303"

Another example (mining node):

./build/bin/geth --networkid 61803 --mine --miner.threads=2 --miner.gasprice "1000000000" --miner.gastarget "50000000" --miner.gaslimit "50000000" --nat extip:127.0.0.1 --datadir "./eticanode1" --http --http.addr "localhost" --http.port "8545" --port "30303" --allow-insecure-unlock --http.corsdomain "*" --rpc.allow-unprotected-txs  --http.api eth,web3,personal,net --rpcvhosts=* --ipcpath "~/.ethereum/geth.ipc" --bootnodes "enode://b0e97d2f1a37b2035a34b97f32fb31ddd93ae822b603c56b7f17cfb189631ea2ef17bfbed904f8bc564765634f2d9db0a128835178c8af9f1dde68ee6b5e2bf7@167.172.47.195:30303"
Becomes:
./build/bin/geth --etica --mine miner.etherbase="0x769cAB9308A3b86f5006D667f30652C92E4d8558" --miner.threads=2 --miner.gasprice "1000000000" --miner.gaslimit "50000000" --nat extip:127.0.0.1 --datadir "./eticanode1" --http --http.addr "localhost" --http.port "8545" --port "30303" --allow-insecure-unlock --http.corsdomain "*" --rpc.allow-unprotected-txs  --http.api eth,web3,personal,net --http.vhosts=* --ipcpath "~/.ethereum/geth.ipc" --bootnodes "enode://b0e97d2f1a37b2035a34b97f32fb31ddd93ae822b603c56b7f17cfb189631ea2ef17bfbed904f8bc564765634f2d9db0a128835178c8af9f1dde68ee6b5e2bf7@167.172.47.195:30303"

Important: If you specified a datadirectory (--datadir) you must keep it in the command line, otherwise your node will start syncing from scratch with a brand new default directory

5. Start the node
You're now ready to launch your eticav2 node! Save your updated launch script and then run it as usual. For instance:
```
pm2 start startnode.sh
or
./startnode.sh
```
If the upgrade was successfull, you should see this screen:
6. Wait for 7th February
Reminder wait for 7th February to complete your node upgrade. On 7th February the final phase of network upgrade will happen, you'll need to make a last git pull and make geth to finish your node upgrade, the final stage of the upgrade is as important as phase 1 and will occur on wednesday 7th February.
Why upgrade in 2 phases?
The upgrade of Etica smart contract requires some updates on the core-geth blockchain source code before it can be deployed. The phase 1, updates the blockchain source code and let's a period of 7 days to all nodes to update. Then for phase 2, the upgraded Etica smart contract bytecode will be deployed and nodes will simply update a variable in source code to finalize upgrade process. Without making phase 2 upgrade, a node will get out of sync with mainnet so it is important to follow both phases.
