Title: [ANN][KAT] KatKoyn Core v2.4 Released (Previously Nyancoin) Post by: jwflame on March 18, 2023, 01:23:26 PM [KAT] KatKoyn
ANNOUNCEMENT KatKoyn is a rebrand of Nyancoin, which has been running continuously on it's own blockchain since January 2014. All previous Nyancoin transactions, wallets and keys are still valid. v2.4 is the first KatKoyn branded release. (11 March 2023) https://github.com/KatKoyn/katkoyn-client/releases/tag/v2.4.0 This release removes rainbow related artwork, and rebrands everything to KatKoyn. All functionality is identical to the previous v2.3 Nyancoin release. v2.3 will still function, however it is recommended to upgrade to v2.4 so that the new branding and name is applied. All existing wallets are still valid, including those on software and paper. Addresses and private keys are unchanged, everything still works as before. All that has changed is the name and artwork - nothing else. HELP, ASSISTANCE, SUGGESTIONS Please join us on Telegram for assistance or to report issues.

However some changes will be required: Executables have been renamed, nyancoind to katkoynd, nyancoin-qt.exe to katkoyn-qt.exe and other equivalents. The config file has changed from nyancoin.conf to katkoyn.conf The default data directory is now .katkoyn on linux based systems, or similar to AppData\Roaming\KatKoyn on Windows and others. Suggested upgrade process:
New installations:
Approximately 4GB of disk space is required for the blockchain files. This will increase over time. For virtual servers, cloud environments and devices such as the Raspberry PI, a minimum of 2GB RAM is suggested. It may be possible to run it with less, but performance is likely to be poor. The software uses port 33701 for incoming peer to peer connections. For the best performance, this port should be opened in your firewall. For desktop versions this can be done via uPNP, Settings - Options - Network and select the 'map port using uPNP' option. For command line, you will need to configure any software firewall, upstream firewall or gateway manually to allow incoming connections on 33701. The software will still work without this - it just means that it will make outgoing connections only. |
