This release is for updating of the bulletproofs release date, which is now scheduled for mid-November.

We also brought some fixes to the GUI, mainly being that when syncing your wallet cache when connecting to a remote node, it will stay on the progress bar page until the cache is synced, instead of going to the account summary and showing a 0 balance for a few minutes. Another fix would be that for some users, remote node wouldn't work at all. The issue comes from the fact that the wallet was created without a password. A password is now required at the creation of the wallet.

Anyone that encountered these issues should restore their wallet and secure it with a password.

This is a mandatory update for everyone, whether you use the GUI or CLI, you need to update before block 95000 (around September 30, 2018) otherwise you will be on the wrong blockchain.

All mining pool operators must also update the core code contained in the daemon (xcashd) and the RPC wallet (xcash-wallet-rpc) before block 95000 (around September 30, 2018) otherwise your mining pool will be mining the wrong blockchain.

How to Upgrade / Install If you are using the GUI Wallet or CLI Wallet

For all operating systems - Upgrading

Download the zip for your operating system and unzip the folder. Then copy these 8 (or 9 if using GUI) files into your current GUI or CLI Wallet folder and click on "replace all files" when your operating system asks you:

  • xcash-blockchain-blackball
  • xcash-blockchain-export
  • xcash-blockchain-import
  • xcash-blockchain-usage
  • xcashd
  • xcash-gen-trusted-multisig
  • xcash-wallet-cli
  • xcash-wallet-rpc
  • X-CASH_GUI_Wallet.exe

Upgrading for MacOSx

Download the installer (.pkg) file and run it. This will create a new X-CASH folder in your application folder. Then copy/paste your wallet files (walletname, walletname.txt, walletname.keys) to your newly created folder.

For all operating systems - Installing

Download the zip for your operating system and unzip the folder. Preferably close to the root C:/

Note

If you are on Macosx or Linux, you may have to run additional commands. Open a terminal in your GUI folder directory and run these commands:
chmod +x xcash-blockchain-blackball xcash-blockchain-export xcash-blockchain-import xcash-blockchain-usage xcashd xcash-gen-trusted-multisig xcash-wallet-cli xcash-wallet-rpc

If you are on Windows, you may need to run the X-CASH_GUI_Wallet.exe
