Gonka Network updated to v0.2.11

The Gonka community unanimously voted for the network update to the new version v0.2.11 — Proposal No. 31 was accepted with 100% of votes. What was included in the release:

1) Inference shards — an experimental subnet-based flow that moves inference coordination off-chain (only session setup, escrow, and settlement remain on-chain), laying the architectural foundation for 100x throughput.

2) Inference hot path optimization — MsgStartInference and MsgFinishInference make fewer state entries and requests, which stabilizes block execution.

3) Signature verification optimization (PR #779) — redundant cryptographic checks in message processing paths have been removed.

4) BLS fixes based on Certik's audit (PR #822) — issues with threshold validation and duplicate slots in Distributed Key Generation (DKG) and threshold signatures have been resolved.

5) IBC Trade Support — governance-controlled trading of approved IBC assets with updated CosmWasm contracts for community sale and liquidity pool.

6) Required-collateral aware slashing — penalties are calculated based on the required minimum collateral, not the full deposit; fairer for participants with over-collateralized assets.

7) Batch Transfer With Vesting, fixed reward calculation for under-collateralized miners, CometBFT updated to v0.38.21 (CSA-2026-001), fixed application.db bloat. Existing hosts do not need to update containers — new versions are only required for newly connected participants.
