A new version was released: Gridcoin 3.5.9.0
For Windows users specifically:
- the new Windows installer 3.5.9.0 is soon downloadable from here.
- upgrade from within their client still "broken" (see this bug, you'll see a message like: "Unable to retrieve upgrade files from Azure cluster. Try to open port 1433")
All other users:
- can find the source code here, OR:
- upgrade from their used location (e.g. package managers, once the responsible person for those package managers made the new version available)
Changes in this version are (more detailed here and changelog):
- security: voting system more secure, and more
- beacon fixes (with a beacon you are able to receive rewards/coins)
- command "execute unspentreport" available (shows proof of unspent coins in wallet)
- translations added
Please tell us when you experience problems!
- e.g. in our bugtracker (forum, reddit, IRC, twitter, ...)
Excellent work, the new UI looks good.
"voting system more secure"
Does this mean the voting is fixed? If so we should redo the Enigma whitelist poll.

I just got report that the msi was the new version 3.5.9.0 for someone else
please retry (in case still same issue: you could deinstall 3.5.8.9 or which version you have and install the new msi)
It's also a good opportunity now to make a !backup
The terms above starting with ! are commands which the fediverse-bot accepts and provides further info on

Before this update the wallet used between 10% and 30% of my CPU (i5-3230m). Now it floats between 0.5% and 3%. Crazy good improvement. No reason not to stake 24/7 now. By the way, I had to uninstall 3.5.8.9 and then install the new version to get it to work.
