Protocol version on upgrade

+1 vote
Hi

I upgraded a multichain node from 1.0.2 to 1.0.4.  When I run a getinfo request against the upgraded node the protocolversion comes back as 10009.

Why is it not reporting 10010.....and will this be an issue?

 

Cheers

Upgrading the MultiChain software doesn't automatically upgrade the protocol – that would be dangerous in terms of consensus since it's crucial for all nodes on a network to be running the same protocol, and it's unlikely that they would all upgrade at the same moment. Upgrading the protocol is a separate step:
