RC5 Launch (MANDATORY UPDATE)

****** PLEASE UPDATE TO RC5, THIS UPDATE INCLUDES A SPORK (A HARD FORK THAT CAN BE ACTIVATED AT WILL). WHEN 90% OF THE NETWORK HAS UPDATED, IT WILL BE ACTIVATED OR IN 3 WEEKS. *****

RC5 is officially available for download!

This is a large update to the stability of Darksend, including:

– Enforcement of masternode payments
– Vastly improved effectiveness of the anonymity provided by Darksend (due to the audit of Kristov)
– Improved speed of Darksend
– Prepared code for open sourcing
– Added Darksend overview screen so users can see what’s happening

This is the last release candidate we’ll have. Open sourcing will happen in one week! After this, we’ll have the community name releases and be doing a 2-3 month release schedule.

For all changes, please see the changelog:
https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin-binaries/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

What’s next for Dash?

Next we’re going to start working on a demo version of Instant Transactions (https://www.dashpay.io/downloads/InstantTX.pdf). It’s going to take a lot of work to lay the foundation, soon
after we’ll be calling for some testnet users to try it out and report back.

Other improvements in the works include fixing DOS hardening for the Masternode network and Darksend.

How To Use Darksend (Thanks vertoe!)
