Is it safe to upgrade v0.7 -> v0.8 now

[huahuayu]

Hi since my v0.7 is stopped for several days, current release is v0.8 but I can see there are some issues raised for v0.8. https://github.com/crypto-org-chain/cronos/issues/624 https://github.com/crypto-org-chain/cronos/issues/628

So is it safe to upgrade from v0.7 -> v0.8 now, any documentation?

[yihuang]

we have upgraded many nodes, it works fine. I need to understand more about the user's report to understand why. I guess it's due to misconfiguration on the user side. I think it's pretty safe.

Let's say 0.7 -> 0.8 Do I need to use a new genesis file (if there has a new one) or direct replace cronosd binary and restart?

[yihuang]

replace cronosd binary and restart, just like 0.6 -> 0.7.

[huahuayu]

done, let's see...hope everything is fine.

So far so good, syncing~~

Btw, do you have snapshots, if sync from scratch(let's say I want to set up a new node), I have to use 0.6.* to sync to some block and then switch to v0.8?

https://quicksync.io/networks/cronos.html there are plenty here.

0.6 -> 0.7 -> 0.8

But If I use snapshot, then don't bother right?
