Announcement - New Wallet for Zixx

in cryptocurrency •  6 years ago  (edited)

Hello everyone,

A new mandatory wallet update has been released (16.5), so you will need to update your wallet/masternode as soon as possible. Older versions of the wallet will not work once we activate the "I told you you should have updated" spork, and your masternode will stop paying out unless you have updated.

Note: The deadline for the update is this Saturday, 22 December at 12:00 noon UTC.

This new version will eventually allow you to run multiple masternodes on the same IP, as long as they have a different port. Since most people use one of 3 or 4 big VPS providers anyway, we believe the effect on the network will be minimal. We do ask that you try and limit it to 10-20 masternodes per IP, if you can. This will reduce costs massively for anyone who wants to run a Zixx node.

Once all of the exchanges and enough of the network has updated to the new version we will activate the spork which removes old wallets/nodes from the network. Expect deposits and withdrawals to be frozen when we get to this stage.

Once we are happy that everything is running fine, then we will activate the "Any port MN" spork, which will allow you to host multiple masternodes on the same IP. MN's set up on the non default port will earn rewards before this stage, so wait until then to set them up.

We're still working away on the MVP, unfortunately its taking a lot longer than we had originally planned, but we'll get there, eventually. Massive thanks to everyone who has stuck with us this far, we really appreciate your continued support!

Remember, if you run a mining pool, its especially important that you update as soon as possible.

All our love,

The Zixx Team.walletNEWblog-01.png
