Everyone on version 1.x.x should update to version 0.8.7.5 (Arngrímur Jónsson) which is the latest.Downloads can be found on http://auroracoin.isor https://github.com/aurarad/auroracoinTHIS, AS OF NOW, IS A MANDATORY UPDATE!We are coming close to the release of our new wallets and the latest release (0.8.7.5) we did was already 6 months ago. To make sure everyone is on the right chain when we release our new version (which will be a hard-fork!) we have now closed the bridge node to the initial (OLD) chain. Please note that if you are sending coins or mine on the old chain (1.x.x) the transactions will no longer be validated on the appropriate one! - the Auroracoin dev team - Two withdrawals from bittrex, one on the 11th and one on the 12th have failed to show up on the block chain. anyone know anything about this?

Bittrex has been on the right chain since we got listed there, so any withdrawal that successfully has been executed (i.e. has been deducted from your balance) should show up. Can you give us any more specifics?

I think it came up in a discussion within the dev team once. If I remember correctly nobody knew whose it is/was. Just assume it is a normal address.

could you shed some light on how to make a vanity address?

sure. There's a software called vanitygen out there. get and compile it using git: #> git clone git://github.com/samr7/vanitygen.git #> cd vanitygen #> make
(there might be windows binaries out there, but be careful, they might "send home" the keys they generate, better compile yourself. You can also compile on windows, just get "cygwin installer", install git, gcc, make,... and use "cygwin bash shell" to do the above. But that's not done in 2 minutes... probably easier to get a linux setup (can be virtual machine))then, to start search (it needs to use brute-force, of course), do this: #> ./vanitygen -X 23 -k "Adamastor"
The "-X 23" is specific for Auroracoin.result would look similar to this Address: AdamaspAbcRzZvevjbt9vCXeU2W4Ez1uAe Privkey: 65g2ArPUT5F4UFYPrzsnEBS9F46CzogKU5G86ymjRdGHanbc7c7
you can import that Privkey to your wallet and it will result in the given address to be part of your wallet. Do do this, go to help / Debug Window in Auroracoin desktop wallet, select the "Console" Tab and enter importprivkey 65g2ArPUT5F4UFYPrzsnEBS9F46CzogKU5G86ymjRdGHanbc7c7
(I guess you knew that part, Adamastor, just explaining it for others who might find this in the future)The above command will take about 2.2 years to find an address that starts with "Adamastor" with a chance of 50% on a decent CPU. With GPU you're 100 times faster. If you still need more power, there are also services that do this by pooling GPU resources, vanity pool for example. (It's a little work to do it securely, though. Don't do it if the service can access your private key in any way. Amazingly there are methods to do it without the service learning your key (crypto ftw)). I'm not sure they support Auroracoin, though.

The new wallet was an update to the codebase. It also included new alert keys for the transition from Balduro to the new team. Aside from that, there weren't any changes to blockchain specifics. The decision to officially cut the old versions(read: hard fork via bridge node update) was made when we found some suspicious mining activity coming from a private address on an older client. It was time to cut the old versions anyway. I'm pretty sure you can read back numerous pages and see where the team told people to update to the newest version. People have had since August to do so. -Fuse

And everything is still working fine for the people who took the time to update in the last 6-7 months, but duly noted. Just so you know, the next wallet update will require a FORK. Make sure you're monitoring the thread for updates so this doesn't happen to you again. -Fuse

Everything was working fine with old wallets until you guys pulled the plug yesterday at 6am. I suspect Auroracoin will top the list of profitable coin on a regular basis after the new code release. It's an important step toward auroracoin main goal - but still we obviously don't want anyone to be left behind. Cutting the old version was necessary - and we are now moving on this next (way bigger) step. Make sure to follow our updates (via email, twitter @OfficialAUR, forum http://auroraspjall.is/, new website to come and press release). This won't be a little update.

From the specific post you linked: Is this new wallet a hardfork or is a hardfork planned in the near future?
This was pushed out more as a soft fork. The code is in place to restrict the connections to newer versions, but no code has been changed that will invalidate old wallet block creation. At this time, there is a bridge node connecting the network and keeping everything in sync. The next wallet update will most likely require a hard fork.

Looks classy i was trying to stay in the theme of the festival which included recycling and sustainability Many people also asked about aurora coins sustainability and impact on the environment and I made sure to mention that aurora coin is partially mined from geothermal energy.
