Mina Protocol(MINA) Improve Node Stability

Make node operation more stable. (Example project: BitSwap).

Improving node stability is an ongoing effort, and we're happy to share that two releases – 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 – were shipped since our last update, which both significantly improved node stability. Most recently, the alpha of release 1.3.0 was also shipped, and the goal is to ship 1.3.0 Stable in Q1 2022. BitSwap will most likely be part of the next hard fork, the specifics of which will be shared in the coming months via a Mina Improvement Proposal (MIP) that the community can comment on.

We have been listening to feedback from our community and are aware of some recent node operation reliability issues, such as low fill rate at the beginning of epochs. Mina Foundation is working with ecosystem partners and community members to actively look into these issues and address them, as part of our ongoing node stability improvement efforts.
