https://github.com/interlay/interbtc/releases/tag/1.18.0

Essential upgrade required for the production deployment of iBTC Vaults.

Major additions / changes since last release (1.15.0):

• Individual secure thresholds
• Vault account recovery (after liquidation)
• Removal of theft reporting

For more details see: https://github.com/interlay/interbtc/compare/1.15.0...1.18.0

This last significant change (removal of theft reporting) was made in line with our suggested next steps listed here: https://medium.com/interlay/kintsugi-released-urgent-security-patches-aebf969ee087

In summary, we were recently alerted to several critical bugs related to the parsing of Bitcoin transactions. The most serious attack identified could allow an invalid fraud proof to liquidate any Vault in the system. After reviewing the core protocol, we recommended removing theft reporting.

Formal discussion and decision on theft reporting will be made on Kintsugi. Depending on the results of this vote, we can adjust the Interlay runtime in a subsequent release.
