+# Kava 14 Upgrade Instructions
+
+## Software Version and Key Dates
+
+- The version of `kava` for Kava 14 is v0.24.0
+- The Kava 13 chain will be shutdown with a `SoftwareUpgradeProposal` that activates at approximately 15:00 UTC on July, 12th 2023.
+
+## Configuration Changes
+
+
+**For validators with existing configurations, it is recommended to set `evm.max-tx-gas-wanted = 0` in app.toml to avoid proposing blocks that exceed the block gas limit.**
+
+In previous versions, the default was non-zero and was used to mitigate DDoS style gas attacks.  However, this setting is not required anymore and can safely be set to zero.
+
+
+### On the day of the upgrade
+
+**The kava chain is expected to halt at block height **5597000**. Do not stop your node and begin the upgrade before the upgrade height, or you may go offline and be unable to recover until after the upgrade!**
+
+**Make sure the kava process is stopped before proceeding and that you have backed up your validator**. Failure to backup your validator could make it impossible to restart your node if the upgrade fails.
+
+**Ensure you are using golang 1.20.x and not aa different version.** Golang 1.19 and below may cause app hash mismatches!
+
+1. Update to v0.24.0
+
+```sh
+  # check go version - look for 1.20!
+  go version
+  # go version go1.20.5 linux/arm64
+
+  # in the `kava` folder
+  git fetch
+  git checkout v0.24.0
+
+  # Note: Golang 1.20 must be installed before this step
+  make install
+
+  # verify versions
+  kava version --long
+  # name: kava
+  # server_name: kava
+  # version: 0.24.0
+  # commit: <commit placeholder>
+  # build_tags: netgo ledger,
+  # go: go version go1.20.5 linux/arm64
+  # build_deps:
+  #  ...
+  # cosmos_sdk_version: v0.46.11
+
+  # Restart node -
+  kava start
+```
+
+### Risks
+
+As a validator, performing the upgrade procedure on your consensus nodes carries a heightened risk of double-signing and being slashed. The most important piece of this procedure is verifying your software version and genesis file hash before starting your validator and signing.
+
+The riskiest thing a validator can do is discover that they made a mistake and repeat the upgrade procedure again during the network startup. If you discover a mistake in the process, the best thing to do is wait for the network to start before correcting it. If the network is halted and you have started with a different genesis file than the expected one, seek advice from a Kava developer before resetting your validator.
+
+### Recovery
+
+Prior to applying the Kava 14 upgrade, validators are encouraged to take a full data snapshot at the upgrade height before proceeding. Snap-shotting depends heavily on infrastructure, but generally this can be done by backing up the .kava directory.
+
+It is critically important to back-up the .kava/data/priv_validator_state.json file after stopping your kava process. This file is updated every block as your validator participates in consensus rounds. It is a critical file needed to prevent double-signing, in case the upgrade fails and the previous chain needs to be restarted.
+
+In the event that the upgrade does not succeed, validators and operators must downgrade back to v0.23.x of the Kava software and restore to their latest snapshot before restarting their nodes.
+
+### Coordination
+
+If the Kava 14 chain does not launch by July 13th, 2023 at 00:00 UTC, the launch should be considered a failure. In the event of launch failure, coordination will occur in the [Kava discord](https://discord.com/invite/kQzh3Uv).
