Title: Windows Bitcoin v0.8.3 still indicates beta
Post by: David Rabahy on August 20, 2013, 03:44:45 PM
I upgraded to v0.8.3 on Windows but it still indicates beta.  Do I need to deinstall v0.8.3-beta first for some reason?  Or maybe the Windows version is still the beta build?

All of Bitcoin is still in beta.

Any 0.x release of any software is generally a beta.  As the poster above says, not only is the Bitcoin client in beta, the whole Bitcoin system is beta.

That is normal and working as intended. You do not need to take any action.

That is correct.
