Bottlecaps 2.1 UPDATE REQUIRED - HARDFORK JULY 4 2014 to 200% Annual PoS

[Lauda]

Ok great! Pull request is merged in

Just sent another one...

Due to the PoS difficulty being low still I will need to add checkpoints every 10 days to keep the network secure as the difficulty rises.

Pretty ugly solution. Just use centralized checkpoints, and you no longer will need to do something like adding 100500+ records into checkpoints.cpp.

The massive wall of checkpoints was to help assist with syncing. As they would start down the wrong chain and have to restart to correct it. It got ugly and  I was planning on cleaning them up and doing a release pending the fix as those chains are no longer being broadcast. But you are too fast

Centralized checkpoints will be my preferred method from now on next release up

Even though I'm not familiar with bitcoin code, when I saw that I also knew that it should be removed. Good work anyhow both of you. This just makes me more excited about the update.

Possible build error. I suggest that you be a bit more patient.

Ya oddly enough a fresh gitpull did not include the last 2 commits. Very strange. Downloading and compiling now

EDIT: its okay to sync with the last update. Only thing is the displayed version # building a new one now that was strange....

Here we are Windows QT V1.5

THIS IS A MANDATORY UPDATE PLEASE UPDATE ASAP
YOU MUST REDOWNLOAD THE BLOCKCHAIN FROM THE START

Updated and syncing. Displays the version correctly now.
Please don't forget to tell John to update OP if he hasn't done that already. 

[John Eden]

OP updated. If you are displaying the checkpoint to old message make sure you update to the one just posted the last build didnt include a commit for some reason. IT WAS a fresh gitpull

And download the chain from the start with that client

[Thrash]

So does this fix the POS or do we still need the reserve?

[Pmalek]

Are we to delete previous nodes list and use just those 3 that you wrote or we can leave that big list of nodes?
