YecWallet v4.4.3

This release embeds ycashd v.4.4.3, which introduces a new default transaction fee for shielded transactions, enforced by preventing transactions that significantly underpay the default transaction fee from entering the mempool.

YecWallet now uses the new default transaction fee for shielded transactions: 1000 yoshis per shielded output.

The prior version of YecWallet will expire at block height is 1,600,000 (approximately April 11, 2023). You must upgrade to v4.4.3 prior to that block height in order to stay synced to the network.

Note that the application icons have been updated to reflect the current Ycash logo.

Note also that YecWallet is a full node wallet that requires a copy of the entire Ycash blockchain. To use Ycash without a copy of the blockchain, use the YWallet.

YecWallet v4.4.2

This release embeds ycashd v.4.4.2, which activates several network upgrades on mainnet at the following block heights:

Blossom: 1,100,000 (approximately Sunday, January 30, 2022)
Heartwood: 1,100,003
Canopy: 1,100,006

(Note: Ycash will only activate the portions of Canopy that are consistent with the founding principles of Ycash.)

The prior version of YecWallet will expire at block height is 1,089,998 (approximately Wednesday, January 12, 2022). You must upgrade to v4.4.2 prior to that block height in order to stay synced to the network.

YecWallet v4.4.1

Arise, YecWallet! The original Ycash wallet lives!

This is the first YecWallet release in over a year. New features include:

• Support for importing and exporting full viewing keys! (Incoming viewing keys are still supported too.)
• Price information fetched from CoinGecko! No longer will YecWallet tell you that your Ycash holdings are worth $0.00.
• Embedded ycashd v4.4.1

The prior version of YecWallet will expire at block height is 1,051,920 (approximately Saturday, November 6, 2021). You must upgrade to v4.4.1 prior to that block height in order to stay synced to the network.

YecWallet v2.1.1.6

This release of YecWallet embeds just-released ycashd v2.1.1-6.

Prior versions versions of YecWallet will expire at block height 837,088 (approximately October 27, 2020). You must upgrade to this new version before then in order to stay synced with the blockchain.

The new expiry block height is 1,051,092 (approximately November 4, 2021).

YecWallet v2.1.1.5 - ycashd stability improvements

This release of YecWallet embeds just-released ycashd v2.1.1-5.

ycashd v2.1.1-5 incorporates an upstream zcashd fix that fixes upstream zcashd issue #4301, which has plagued Ycash full node operators and Zcash full node operators for months. This issue would cause ycashd to fall to restart due to an assertion failure.

We recommend that all YecWallet users upgrade to this release.

Important Note: If you get the following error the first time you run this release:

assertion failure CopyPreviousWitnesses() Assertion (nd->witnessHeight == -1) || (nd->witnessHeight == indexHeight - 1)

it means that you've already encountered the issue the last time that you ran your pre-2.1.1.5 version of YecWallet, and you will have to do a full rescan (not a reindex). For more details, see zcash/zcash#4301 (comment).

YecWallet v2.1.1.3: Bugfix release

This minor release of YecWallet embeds just-released ycashd v2.1.1-3, which incorporates upstream Zcash Pull Request #4379 in order to fix upstream Zcash Issue #4301. The issue involved this error message:

Assertion failed: ((nd->witnessHeight == -1) || (nd->witnessHeight == indexHeight - 1)), function CopyPreviousWitnesses, file wallet/wallet.cpp, line 1066.

If you encounter this error message or a crash during startup without any error message, upgrading to this release will likely address the problem without needing to perform a reindex.

We consider this release to be an optional upgrade.
