Builds and sigs available at: download.bitcoincashnode.org/misc/builds/up… Chipnet operators should download and run asap to avoid outage in your testing facilities in about a week. Mainnet and other testnet operators should wait until the official v29 release, which will follow soon.

We urge all users to upgrade to v28.0.1 as soon as possible. v27.x releases will expire on May 15, 2025.

BCHN maintainers endorse CHIP-2021-05 VM Limits and CHIP-2024-07 BigInt proposed by @bitjson . We have also provided a temporary testing facility before chipnet activation. Read more here: bitcoincashnode.org/en/newsroom/bc…
