What will happen to the old Wallet. will it be deprecated? Can we switch wallets or just have the old one working side by side with the new one until you transfer the coins from old to new then delete the old wallet?
Great Job on the wallet!
Best!

Yup you got it right. The swing wallet will deprecate - Block 335,585 (est. 15 days from now) for windows and block 329,640 (est. 7 days from now) for linux.
erm, thats a rather important info there, isnt it?
Does this also apply to the linux node itself or just the wallet?
I created an ubuntu vm with zero node and swing wallet pretty much around day 1. (followed instructions on github)
Do I _need_ to migrate my coins to new simple wallet?
I have to admit that my linux skills are rather basic, dont want my zeros to get "stuck" in my old wallet/node/vm.
Thanks for your reply & support
Seems that there might be a little bit of confusion here. The swing wallet GUI will continue to work as it always has for the foreseeable future. The node/daemon binaries (zcashd, zcash-cli) however will need to be updated to the newest versions as these are the files that will deprecate at the block height that R3DEY3 stated. This is true for both the linux and windows versions.
Thanks for clarification.
Can I just replace the ones in the /src dir with the precompiled ones from github?
Yup. The one's on GITHUB are the new updated files that you need.
