Solana has seen updates to its Mainnet validators with versions 1.17.31 and 1.18.12 being trialled on up to 5% of stake on Mainnet-Beta. The latest version aims to solve congestion issues on the network. Stake movements totaling 11m $SOL ($1.37b) have occurred between validators. Despite testing, version 1.18.x is not yet deemed ready for general adoption, with users advised to remain on version 1.17.31 for now.
Micro-update: 1.18.12 was given a little test by some volunteer nodes last night on mainnet-beta. Mainnet will remain on 1.17.31 for now as we evaluate the data / feedback from that test.
