DigitalNote v7.0.4

This is a MANDATORY update for users that still have coins on the old network that need to be swapped to the new DigitalNote chain. If you do not need to swap your coins, already have swapped your coins, or are withdrawing coins from an exchange like Bittrex or Upbit then you do not need to download this update and you should only be using the new DigitalNote wallet software now (https://github.com/DigitalNoteXDN/DigitalNote-2/releases). This software update is ONLY for users who still have coins on the old chain and this patch is MANDATORY for these users to be able to swap their coins. Once you complete the swap process via this update and our Discord bot you can delete this old chain software and move to the new DigitalNote wallet software linked above. You can also delete the old blockchain from your harddrive once you move to the new one.

• Detailed swap instructions are provided here: http://www.digitalnote.biz/xdn/pdf/DigitalNote_Swap_Instructions.pdf
• The latest blockchain bootstrap is provided here (use this if you face syncing issues or if you just want to speed up the process): http://bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/7.0.4_998186.zip
• App data files are located in ~/.digitalnote on Macs and ~/AppData/Roaming/digitalnote on Windows
• If you have a deposit of XDN locked for a period longer than the swap period of 6 months, please contact our team on our Discord channel for assistance (https://discord.gg/4dUquty). If you have a deposit set to unlock in under 6 months, simply wait until your deposit is unlocked and then swap it over. We cannot unlock locked deposits manually.
• If you require a different Linux build please contact us and we will attempt a compile for your distro. The Linux binary we have provided was built on Linux Mint 18.1 Serena (libboost v1.58.0.1ubuntu1).

Release Notes

• The TX size limit bug from original dev has been fixed, the maximum block size increase is now enabled correctly (200KB max). This will allow larger quantities of XDN to be swapped at a time to allow for a smoother transition.
• Mining ability has been removed for users as propagating blocks on the old network will be solely handled by the DigitalNote team. Mining reward is 0 XDN as the mining process is only to facilitate the swap process and push user's transactions to the new chain. Do not try to mine on the old chain, there is no point. You should be mining or staking on the new chain now.
• The source for this release is closed source as to thwart manipulation of the old chain and to allow for a smoother transition while users continue the swap process. The source code provided below is not the current release as this is a closed source release. Do not attempt to compile the source code under assets or it will not connect to the current network.

SHA-256 Checksums

To verify that your release is official, use the following SHA-256 hashes. We recommend a program such as "MD5 & SHA Checksum Utility" to do so (https://raylin.wordpress.com/downloads/md5-sha-1-checksum-utility/):

DigitalNote v7.0.3

This is v7.0.3 DigitalNote network wide update.

Release notes:

This is a MANDATORY update to facilitate the roll back of the blockchain to block 984206. The mining reward has been set to 0 to facilitate the SWAP to the new XDN technology and the core has been fixed so that it follows the correct top block height of the pre-swap fork. This version is only meant to transfer funds to the swapbot so that you can redeem your coins on the new network. After you swap your coins you will be moving to the new upgraded network wallet (DigitalNote v1.0.1.1) and you will leave this one behind. Once you have swapped your coins and they are available in your new wallet, please delete the old software. You may also delete the old blockchain to save space on your computer.

Users may need to delete the old block chain and resync. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU BACK UP YOUR OLD WALLET FILE before you delete the files. Also make sure that you have a backup up your private key to the wallet.

Files are located in ~/.digitalnote on Macs and ~/AppData/Roaming/digitalnote on Windows

You should download the bootstrap files to help you sync with the old network faster:

For Linux these are the files you need to download to .digitalnote
wget bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blockchainindices.dat
wget bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blockindexes.dat
wget bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blocks.dat
wget bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blockscache.dat
wget bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/p2pstate.bin
wget bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/poolstate.bin

To download for Mac or Windows type the URL for each file
bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blockchainindices.dat
bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blockindexes.dat
bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blocks.dat
bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/blockscache.dat
bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/p2pstate.bin
bootstrap.digitalnote.biz/xdn/poolstate.bin

NB: Please do not use this version to mine, set up deposits or transact with exchanges. You will only need this wallet to interact with the swapbot on our Discord channel to swap your coins to the upgraded network. If your coins are from Bittrex you should not be downloading this wallet as all coins to and from Bittrex are post-swap coins on the new network. Use DigitalNote v1.0.1.1+ if you are on the new network already.

If you have a value locked in XDN that you may have deposited for a period longer than 6 months, please contact our team on our Discord channel for assistance. https://discord.gg/4dUquty

Source code is supplied to compile on your own variant.

We will supply binaries if we get enough requests to warrant this.

DigitalNote v6.0.1-beta

Overview

This is the v6.0.1 DigitalNote network wide update.

Release notes:
There was a bug from the original XDN code that caused the block reward at height 704,000 to increase back to 320,000XDN per block. This update fixes that via a hardfork at height 704,614 and also applies a small fix to our difficulty adjustment algo (LWMA2).

The bug became apparent today and has been around ever since XDN's conception. The old Minergate chain will suffer the same problem. Essentially the block reward was being bit shifted and at block 704,000 when the height was divided by 11,000 (halving interval) the reward was shifted by 64 bits, bringing it to 320,000 XDN. You can examine the tech details for yourself in the old version of currency.cpp in the baseRewardFunction. Although it is an unfortunate occurrence, it would have been very difficult to discover before hand without a full audit of all the previous code. This patch will fix the issue and cause a fork upgrade at height 704614. This is a MANDATORY upgrade.

DigitalNote v5.0.2-beta

Overview

This is the v5.0.2 DigitalNote mandatory network wide update. On block 669,369 (approximate date June 27, 2018), there will be a hard fork on the DigitalNote network. This is a re-scheduled and consensual network upgrade, so unlike the BCH/BTC split a new coin won't be created. Rather, there will be a split in the DigitalNote blockchain where the consensus will start following the post-fork (or "new") chain instead of the pre-fork (or "old") chain. To be sufficiently prepared for the scheduled network upgrade, users should download and run the new daemon (v5.0.2) or GUI wallet (v1.0.15c-beta) BEFORE block 669,369. A blockchain resync is not needed. Only this version will work after the fork of June 27th. If you download/sync with the blockchain using the old digitalnoted (v4.0.3) or old GUI (v1.0.14-beta) after the hard fork, you will be on the old chain.

Release notes:

• Proof-of-work change to CryptoNightV1 (variant 1 also known as "monero7") to remain ASIC resistant at fork height
• Difficulty adjustment algorithm has been updated to Zawy's LWMA-2 to resist hash and timestamp attacks at fork height
• Seed nodes updated to be operational (no more unresponsive seeds from old dev)
• Block target reduced to 2 minutes at fork height
• Difficulty is hard-coded to “reset” back to GPU levels for blocks immediately following the fork so that the network continues to work as intended and does not stall
• GUI embedded pool miner now works
• Latest checkpoints and small Payment Gate bug fix
• Arch Linux compile fixes
• Reset difficulty for 61 blocks to 1,000,000 to overcome drop in hash rate
