PEXA v1.7.0 RELEASE
Hello everyone, I have a very exciting update for all of you. We have updated the Pexa core node wallet to v1.7.0, which essentially removes all form of Raven coin, and moves our base onto the latest Bitcoin release v0.20. I have been working on this the past week and put a ton of time into making sure this works seamlessly.

We are REMOVING assets at block 508,000, so please update your wallet to the latest. This is about a week away. This update is mandatory, as this moves the project in a certain direction I want to go. I am currently not at liberty to discuss why I've made this move just yet. See the below medium.com article for more information about the upgrade, and how it impacts you.

If you are running a MINING POOL this GIST might be of interest to you to getting your mining pool working with PEXA (or Bitcoin 0.20 for that matter). I've tested the updates on a YiiMP stratum, and all works well.

I would ask that you please download the bootstrap.zip file below and copy / paste these blocks over to your Pexa core directory. We don't have this bootstrapping automated yet.

Also, one last thing. Make sure you backup your wallet.dat file and/or export your private keys. If the chain stalls during this next week, I'll be sure to release updates as needed to help get the chain going again. I highly doubt this will happen, but who knows.

Please update your wallets, there was a transaction with respect to asset creation that caused a fork. In an attempt to get proper nodes on the network, I've updated the protocol version and bumped the protocol version and pre-seeded the dnsseeds with nodes in agreeance with the longest chain.

This is for the actual product my friend. Not the coin.

Quick update! We just posted an auto updating roadmap on our website! Click on the "Roadmap" on the main website or simply check it out here:

Hey guys! We're looking to build up our Telegram groups. https://t.me/pexagroup - Join us for some news and updates if you are not a discord fan!

This is a critical update if you want to remain on the main chain. Please download version 1.5 or compile from the latest commit to remain on the chain. The algorithm switch will take place Tue 17 Sep 2019 12:00:00 AM UTC. If you fail to switch, you will risk being on a different chain. All the mining pools who run Pexa have been notified. Please visit our discord channel for more information. https://discordapp.com/invite/TZRJ3xp

Another Pexa Coin update! Here is a sneak peak of the Pexa wallet. (Still in development) The web wallet will look slightly different. Questions, need some help? Please come checkout our discord! https://discordapp.com/invite/TZRJ3xp or checkout the reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/pexacoin/

Please read the bitcoin talk, and check pinned announcements in the discord channel. 

Hey everyone! We've released version 14.0 of the Pexa Coin Core. This is a critical update for you to remain on the main chain. We found the nSubisdyHalving interval was going to cause a deflation in the minting of Pexa coins at around 118 days. We changed this to be what we announced it originally to be, which was about 4 years, or in Pexa's case, around 1180 days from now.

We are recommending that all nodes should update to this release as soon as possible to make sure that you remain on the same chain.

OSX and Linux Builds to follow shortly.

For docker release please see https://hub.docker.com/r/pexacoin/core.

Windows Download

A couple announcements to make today. I've just tagged a new release on the latest commit. This is a critical update for you to remain on the main chain.

We are recommending that all nodes should update to this release as soon as possible to make sure that you are ready when the algorithm swaps on October 1st. If you do not upgrade, you will not be on the correct chain after Oct 1st 2019 16:00:00 UTC.

Development Update
The project is running along nicely! I'll have more screenshots by end of day Saturday or Sunday for the main platform. I've got a lot of work to do on this thing. If you are interested in becoming a tester please do not PM me with a request. Instead, to make my life a little less hectic. Interested parties to visit https://forms.gle/WtB43woVaR7qKPwV8 and fill out the Google Form.

Community

I am very humbled by the community participation and enthusiasm with respect to this project. Because of this, I wake up every morning fired up, and excited to work on this project. I would love to add a couple more community leaders as well, so if you're interested in participating in the Pexa Coin community as a Community Leader, please PM me, @brewhaus , and @Crypto Mach all in the same message room to discuss where you'd be a good fit, and why you'd like to participate.

Got some progress!
