Hey guys, it's bass! Chizu (/u/nellody) and I have been working hard on this release, and we can't wait to see how Tacocoin evolves in the future.

This is a mandatory update, and you must update before block 100,000.

At block 100k, we will fork, which brings in two big changes to our coin, merged mining and a new difficulty retarget time.

This release's new features (last two go into effect at block 100k):

  • A functional testnet
  • Our brand new logo (not in current linux beta)
  • Merged mining with all scrypt coins!
  • And difficulty will now retarget every hour, instead of every 10 hours, which will make finding blocks much more consistent

There are also a few minor changes you'll see, and we fixed the wording on a few things from Litecoin to Tacocoin.

And again, this is not optional, this is MANDATORY, and you could lose all your coins if you don't switch.

~Bass

PS, minor change, but you have to move your coin.conf file to ~/.tacocoin (linux) and rename it tacocoin.conf.
