MANTRA Chain v7.0.0 Upgrade: $MANTRA Redenomination Technical Overview Overview The MANTRA Chain v7.0.0 software upgrade is fast approaching. This upgrade, approved via on-chain governance Proposal #26 and Proposal #29, implements the re-denomination of the native token from $OM uom to $MANTRA aMANTRA and executes a non-dilutive 1:4 token split, increasing the hard-capped max supply from 2.5B to 10B tokens while preserving all economic value. This is a significant chain upgrade. Please review the details below carefully. What's Changing Token Ticker: $OM → $MANTRA Denomination: uom 6 decimals → aMANTRA 18 decimals Supply: 1:4 non-dilutive split Fees and Transaction Amounts: On-chain fee parameters and transaction amounts will be updated to reflect the new denomination. Please review any hardcoded values in your tooling, scripts, and configurations. Node Operator and Validator Action REQUIRED Node operators should scale up their node resources ahead of the upgrade in line with the recommendations outlined in the official upgrade guide. This upgrade involves an extensive state migration that is significantly more resource-intensive than a typical chain upgrade. Upgrade Guide: github.com/MANTRA-Chain/net v7.0.0 Guide Release Notes: github.com/MANTRA-Chain/mantrachain v7.0.0 Release Expected Migration Times This is NOT a typical upgrade. While most chain upgrades halt for only 60 to 120 seconds, the v7.0.0 state migration is considerably longer. Validator and Light Nodes: 10 to 15 minutes Archive Nodes: Up to 45 minutes Please plan accordingly and do not restart or interrupt your node during the migration process. The upgrade guide provides recommended specs and swap configurations to ensure a smooth upgrade process: https://github.com/MANTRA-Chain/net/blob/main/mantra-1/upgrades/v7.0.0/guide.md#memory-specifications For Exchange Partners Trading pairs using OM will need to be paused ahead of the upgrade and reopened under the new $MANTRA ticker once the migration is complete. The redenomination occurs at the protocol level via the Bank module. No smart contract interaction is required. Balances will update automatically onchain after the upgrade completes. Please ensure your systems account for the denomination change from uom 6 decimals to aMANTRA 18 decimals. For the Community and Token Holders No action is required from token holders on MANTRA Chain. Your balances will automatically reflect the 1:4 split after the upgrade. The chain will be temporarily halted during the migration window. Transactions will not be possible until the upgrade is complete and consensus resumes. This is a purely technical change. Your proportional ownership and total value are fully preserved.
