RC5 Launch (MANDATORY UPDATE)

I agree that it could be confusing though. Perhaps the client should "hide" those from the basic view and only show it on advanced.

I don't think that keeping people in the dark is the answer... No pun intended...

A simple explanation would do just fine.

Though, I think the wallet design that hasn't been done yet (hope he's doing better) included a decimal obfuscation mode. We really don't need to see all 8 all the time. At least not with current granularity of market valuation.

Not really understanding it then. Why not upgrade now and enforce in 3 weeks?

flare or eduffield could clarify. As I understand it, you dont need to update again the code is already in this version the spork is like a remote control fork with a switch you can only flip once. This means everybody updates now, when Evan feels the network is at a compliance level where enforcement would go smoothly he flips the switch, but there is no need to update again.

This is correct - we are waiting for 90% of network hash to be updated, which correlates with masternode payments to RC5 masternodes.

So elbereths' stats are a nice measure how far we are ---> currently 56% of blocks are paid to RC5 nodes.

Spork enables us to switch on the enforcement via 'remote control' (and vice versa), no further update of code needed.

What happens if after 3 weeks we have 80%?

It's either 90% or 3 weeks. So if tomorrow we've reached 90%, Evan will turn on the switch, if not, wait for 3 weeks, even if it's 80% then, he'll turn on the switch. :smile:

20% network hash can't fork the network - not updated miners will fork off and get orphaned.

Why wait for 90% then. Let's do it at 80% :) Any reason for 90%?
Sorry, I am only trying to understand this :)
 
Flare, to update from v.9.12.32 to v.9.13.15, do we have to make a fresh wallet and send the coins to the new wallet? Or can we just merge the old wallet to v.9.13.15?

Thank you.
