Doesn't matter because the BTX project and coin is dead. Bitcore project more alive than all living! You probably do not know that altcoins are falling in price much more than BTC. And the fact that all the coins (tokens) of ICO after the release of pamping and dumping, and then in need a lot of time to recover.

I downloaded the 0.15.1.0 and replace the previous version. Works OK. All the old addresses are automatically converted to new addresses. Thanks.

How long will the exchange of addresses take? Cryptoexchanges have all been updated? I do not want my transaction to hang. How long can I use old addresses?

Important update: Bitcore Public KeysDear Bitcore community, Due to potential roadblocks with many hardware and service providers, we have come to the conclusion that it is necessary for us to change the public key prefix. Since we use the same prefix as bitcoin ("1", "3" and "bc1"), we decided that Bitcore BTX should use the following new prefixes: Wallets 1xxx -> 2xxx Wallets 3xxx -> sxxx Wallets bc1 -> btxWe would like to ask all Bitcore users to slowly but surely upgrade to the new system. To do so, please follow these steps:1. Open your Bitcore core / Bitcore-QT wallet. 2. Create a backup of your wallet.dat and store it in a safe place. For example a USB-Stick that you later put in a safe-deposit box. 3. Download the latest wallet and replace the wallet.dat that will be created on startup with your old wallet.dat 4. Bitcore-QT will automatically create new public keys for your private keys, starting with 2xxx instead of 1xxx. 5. It is important to note, that you can only use your old public keys to send to other old addresses and vis versa - you can send only to the new format from the new format. The address formats are not interchangeable. Please note that the private keys are in no way affected by this change. Any private key is fully compatible with both the old formatting as well as the new one. The new wallet, supporting the new format only, is still in beta mode but can be download and tested via the official github: https://github.com/LIMXTEC/BitCore/releasesNote: There will be an official release soon. Meanwhile here is a basic tool, to convert old addresses to the new 2xxx format: https://limxtec.github.io/btx-convert/We also want to inform you that there's no rush to update, we set a timeframe of 3 months in which we want to complete the transition. After this period bitcore core 0.16 will be released which will only use the new public keys. If you have any questions feel free to ask here in the forum or on our numerous social media and telegram channels. See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1883902.msg40724430#msg40724430 for a full link list. Thank you for your support and for your understanding. - Your Bitcore team So say you don't update and send funds from old wallet.What happens? Bitcore Core (bitcore-qt) will not allow it. So basically, when you have the new wallet installed supporting 2xxx addresses and you want to send to a 1xxx, it simply won't let you finish the transaction. This is also true vis versa from old Bitcore core to the new one.

Bitcore 0.15.1.0 released - full new public key supportDear Bitcore community, As most of you are already aware, we are updating to a new public key format. Note: Your private keys are safe and will NOT change. Full information can be found here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1883902.msg41275053#msg41275053We have now released a new Bitcore Core (bitcore-qt) version, fully supporting the new pub key format. Addresses change automatically as follows: 1xxx -> 2xxx Download here: https://github.com/LIMXTEC/BitCore/releasesThis version is not backwards compatible, meaning you can not interact with the old addresses. However as a temporary solution you can use our converter tool: https://limxtec.github.io/btx-convert/Thank you for your support. - Your Bitcore team

It is important to note, that you can only use your old public keys to send to other old addresses and vis versa - you can send only to the new format from the new format. The address formats are not interchangeable.

An conversion rate (number of wallets)/(all wallets) and naming the exchanges who are using 2x adresses would be nice.
Otherwise you buy some btx auf 1xwallets send to new created 1xwallet (if its still possibel) and converting this to 2x and then send the btx to yout own 2x wallet.
Or do I see something wrong?

This is very problematic the way it is being implemented. I am leaving my coins in the old wallet until this is all ironed out.

Please note that the private keys are in no way affected by this change. Any private key is fully compatible with both the old formatting as well as the new one. Literally #Hodlers don't need to to anything for now? I have Bitcore which i locked in a wallet until 2025, So is there anything I need to do or i can just leave it. FYI: I just have wallet backups no running wallet in my PC.

From Ivo : About Private Key Change -
"If you generate a new address on your wallet, use the converter to convert to old style address and send the coins. If you reuse an old address that was already in your wallet before you upgraded, you can still send the coins there and they will show up..
The thing to remember is that the private keys remain the same, just the way the public address is shown changed
So if the private key is in your wallet.dat ; you are fine"

Just use the conversion tool until the exchanges upgrade to the new wallet. Then I assume your wallet will reflect the new prefix. They are interchangeable. Here is a demo of the new wallet with the new address being used. This was shared on Telegram by Bitcore team. https://www.dropbox.com/s/97dj9yeymblt1id/Bitcore%20v.0.15.1.0%20Legacy%20Transaction%20Demo.mp4?dl=0

Recommended tx fees in the new version is 0.02BTX/kb again... Where is "lowest transaction fee" bla-bla-bla? Who posted a tx fee comparation here? You are wrong now.
