Title: Electrum display latest version
Post by: OmegaStarScream on December 11, 2015, 08:19:01 AM
On the website It says last version is  Electrum-2.5.4 , on the Github Changelog it says 2.6 which is pretty normal I suppose because it just not available for public yet .
But can anyone please tell me how Electrum retrieve and get data to know the latest version ? because I'm using right now 2.4.4 and it says on the bottom of the window "New version available 2.5.1" (while there is others) which makes me wonder if I don't have a fake version of electrum or something ...

it retrieves it from the website.
this feature has been removed from recent versions, that's why the returned value is not up to date.
