We have released PolisCore v1.6.4. This release is mandatory for everyone. The purpose of this update is to complete the proposal we made a few weeks ago, which you can read here.

This update introduces the following changes:

  • Include CalcMerkle and CalcMerkleBranch as tools for Olympus migration
  • Include SPORK_30_MIN_FEE_BYTES and SPORK_31_MIN_FEE_ENFORCE to enforce a dynamic minimum fee per byte to prevent stake grinding.
  • Include SPORK_32_STOP_BLOCKCHAIN_TIMESTAMP to stop the blockchain to prepare for Olympus migration.

Everyone must update local wallets and masternodes before block 686805, which would be around September 19 2020.

Don’t forget to verify the block on your Wallet/Masternode with the block explorer. If a user doesn’t update the wallet, masternodes will fork and stop receiving rewards.

For masternodes hosted on PolisNodes, don´t worry, your masternodes will work as usual.

The official wallets are on the Official Github repository and the website:

Remember, we never message the users directly, and we don’t have an automated bot for releases. Stay safe and keep your coins safe.
