Gravity v1.8.1 Upgrade

This upgrade will run invariant checks by default every 17-199 blocks and ensure a chain halt when any invariant is violated.

This guide assumes that you use cosmovisor to manage upgrades. If you do not use cosmovisor, please adjust some commands accordingly.

The upgrade is scheduled for Block 5264000. It is estimated to take place 2 years ago. A countdown clock is here. The governance proposal is here.
