We have released our latest core wallet version 1.0.28 which is a mandatory wallet update. This update focuses on patching a critical security bug that we have discovered.

If you host your Masternode on the Stakenet cloud, https://cloud.stakenet.io/login through MNaaS then we have already updated all Masternode servers and ask you to update your local wallet (the wallet that holds your Masternode collateral).

If you stake your coins through a TPoS then please ensure you have updated your local wallet and your TPoS server to the latest version. If you use a TPoS Merchant then please ask your merchant to confirm that they have updated your TPoS VPS to the latest wallet version.

How to update your Windows Wallet

In order to update your Windows wallet, please go to https://github.com/X9Developers/XSN/releases/tag/v1.0.28 and download the lastest Windows version. It is generally recommended to have a recent backup version of your wallet.dat before updating your wallet as good practice.

Once the download has been completed, please ensure your wallet is closed and then run the executable file to install the new wallet and update your existing wallet.

If you changed the data directory for your wallet when you originally installed it then please make sure that you re-confirm this folder and proceed with the install.

Please make sure your wallet is closed before proceeding and once done, extract the file and then run the xsn-qt in the bin folder.

How to update your Mac Wallet using the Terminal

In order to update your Mac wallet, please go to https://github.com/X9Developers/XSN/releases/tag/v1.0.28 and download the latest Mac version. It is generally recommended to have a recent backup version of your wallet.dat before updating your wallet as good practice.

Once the download has been completed, please ensure your wallet is closed and then please open your Mac Terminal and input the following commands:

tar xfvz xsn-1.0.28-osx64.tar.gzcp xsn-1.0.28-osx64.tar.gz/bin/xsnd ~/.xsncore/cp xsn-1.0.28-osx64.tar.gz/bin/xsn-cli ~/.xsncore/chmod 777 ~/.xsncore/xsn*

The above assumes you are using ~/.xsncore/ as the wallet directory, if this is not your chosen directory then you can edit the following commands:

tar xfvz ${COMPRESSED_NAME}cp ${UNCOMPRESSED_NAME}/bin/xsnd ${XSNCORE_PATH}cp ${UNCOMPRESSED_NAME}/bin/xsn-cli ${XSNCORE_PATH}chmod 777 ${XSNCORE_PATH}/xsn*

Everything in ${} is replaceable with file name and users preferred location
