A reminder to all miners still on 0.11 to upgrade to 0.12.
About 80% of the newly mined blocks are on 0.12. 95% is required for activation of the 0.12 soft forks.
Thank you to those who have already upgraded.

Release - Zetacoin 0.11.3.4With more than 70% of nodes now on v0.11.3.2 or later (according to cryptoID) we can proceed with the last update to complete the v0.11 soft forks. Blocks mined by this release will mine version 5 blocks. When 95% of 10,000 blocks mined are version 5 blocks, version 3 blocks will no longer be allowed and may cause old wallets/miners to split off the network. This is a required upgrade for miners. Pool operators, please ensure your block header version is 5. Optional upgrade for wallet users on v0.11.3.2 or higher. If you are on v0.11.3.1 or lower, this is a required upgrade. See the first post for download links or find them under the Github release here: https://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin/releases/tag/v0.11.3.4

Zetacoin 0.11.3.2Download wallets from here: https://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin/releases/tag/v0.11.3.2- Prepare for soft fork version 5 blocks that rejects non-CLTV (v3) blocks - Required update This release is a required update for wallets for activating DER and CLTV. The next two releases to complete the DER and CLTV activation will be for miners and will be released when enough wallets have upgraded.

...The only effective change is that version 2 blocks will be rejected once 95% blocks are on version 4. Blocks are on version 3, so this code is not effective yet.
The next release will increase the block version to 4.
Then how is it that the log reflects: 26 of last 100 blocks above version 3 There are people incorrectly mining with other software/pools that sets version bits. These are detected as > 3 blocks. If you mine with the wallet it will only generate version 3 blocks.

Win10 x64, ZET QT 11.2.3 showing cpu down to near zero after a few minutes of being open but ram usage staying at 1.6GB.
That's an older version - latest is v0.11.3.1 https://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin/releases.. but performance is terrible. @dev/OP - is this a mandatory update or can we safely go back to v0.11.2.3? There were no changes that should affect performance. The only effective change is that version 2 blocks will be rejected once 95% blocks are on version 4. Blocks are on version 3, so this code is not effective yet. The next release will increase the block version to 4.

The last major code update was a few months ago to the features of Bitcoin Core 0.11. The next major update will probably be to the features of Bitcoin Core 0.12. After that we'll see which code base to follow with Bitcoin Core/Classic/Unlimited/Fork going in different directions. Zetacoin has always tried to remain close to the Bitcoin code base (except for the quicker coin distribution and shorter block times).

I was not able to access any of the official Zetacoin websites, so I ended up in getzetacoin dot com and downloaded a 64 bit zetacoin wallet (Windows 10 machine). The problem is, it never syncs. After 15 minutes still 0 connections to zetacoin network. Tried creating a .conf file and added a bunch of nodes I found around, still nothing. Is the Zetacoin wallet broken??? My version is Zetacoin Core version v0.9.2.4-unk-beta (64-bit)
The official web site is http://www.zetac.org/The latest version is 0.11.2.3. You can find it on the web site or on github: https://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin/releases/tag/v0.11.2.3

Hey, is zetacoin still going?
Of course. The code base was recently upgraded to be on par with Bitcoin 0.11.2 and the chain just reached 5 million blocks!

What happen with the new version? I have the new server only for Zetacoin to relanch multi-pool.info pool, but the daemon is now taking more of 1GB or RAM while downloading the blockchains.
Before I run 4 pools together with 2GB ram, so 512MB of ram is the common value a daemon takes.
I'm also seeing massive memory usage with the newer version, both on Ubuntu & Windows....... This is the case why my testings are failed in my VPS Eat much more memory than other wallets (more than 1GB for daemon) Seeing the same thing. Any ideas Giskard? The daemon uses around 1 GB on my seed node. It hasn't been able to run on 512MB for a while now. This appears normal for almost 5 million blocks in the chain. This is similar to other coins that has 2+ years of blockchain data.

Zetacoin 0.11.2.2 releasedThis is a required/immediate update for 0.11.2.1 users0.9 users, please update as soon as possiblehttps://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin/releases/tag/v0.11.2.2Notes: Due to 950 of 1000 being blocks being mined with v3 blocks (0.11.2.1), 0.11.2.1 nodes started rejecting v2 blocks. This caused the 0.11.2.1 nodes and 0.9 nodes to be on different forks. This soft fork obviously happened too fast, as most nodes are still on 0.9. 0.11.2.2 has been released to not reject v2 blocks, so it will be on the same chain as v0.9 nodes. Edit: Coinplorer appears to be on the correct (longest) chain. https://coinplorer.com/ZET/ My nodes are planed for upgrade today. At the moment I see 5/14 with latest wallet. New 2 nodes will makes 50:50 and is very dangerous is somebody continue to use the old wallet! Anybody with old wallet can say me time/date for the change? I want to make when more than 75% are ready. My experience with the Aurumcoin and Ladybug show me how the network will stop to operate. This is not joke, this is your investment Thanks rossen. I would encourage everyone to upgrade to 0.11.2.2. Once enough nodes have upgraded a new version will be released to start enforcing version 3 blocks.

Note that the format of rpcallowip address in your configuration has changed between 0.9 and 0.11.
e.g. previously you would have something like:
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
now you have to include the subnet, e.g.
rpcallowip=192.168.1.0/24

With 90% of blocks mined with version 0.11.2, the new version now is now required.
Please update to version 0.11.2 as soon as possible if you have not yet.
Wow, that happened pretty quickly. Yes, unfortunately it happened too quickly. The majority of nodes have not upgraded leaving the 0.11.2.1 users on a shorter chain. A new release is being prepared where the consensus rule in 0.11.2.1 is disabled to allow 0.11 nodes to get back on the longest chain. Edit: Correct chain block 4874191 hash 000000000001d08ec451b8b71be3a8cbe6ad6480da6bc46c600a2d4f537c9172
