BIP66 soft fork
Version 2.11.0 of Groestlcoin core fixes very important common vulnerabilities and exposures (classified as CVE-2015-3641) and all users MUST upgrade to this version as soon as possible. Deamons and QT wallets that are derived from Bitcoin and have a codebase prior to Bitcoin 0.10.2 needs to address this CVE as soon as possible.
To address this CVE, Groestlcoin used the BIP66 soft fork. The majority of the Groestlcoin miners have already upgraded to the latest version of Groestlcoin Core which activated the new BIP66 consensus rule. This soft fork was a two stage process where certain thresholds have been reached, consisting of the following conditions:

• Once 75% of the last 1000 blocks are version 3, strict DER encoding for signatures will be enforced when new blocks are generated, preventing non-standard transactions from being included in them.
• Once 95% of the last 1000 blocks are version 3, propagation of version 112 (aka 1) and version 2 blocks will be rejected from the network entirely.

Users
From a users perspective, the change will be seamless and is purely a backed change. Older version (v2.1.0.6) is still compatible with the network, however it is extremely important that you upgrade to version 2.11.0 (link) if you haven't done so already due to the security fixes, new features and privacy enhancements.

Miners
If you're a miner, below you will find a list of the pools who have upgraded and the ones who haven't. If you're a miner on a pool which hasn't upgraded yet, please temporarily move your hashing power to another pool until they have upgraded otherwise mining version 112 (aka 1) blocks will be orphaned and you will generate no revenue.

The following pools have upgraded and enforce the new rules:
Coinmine.pl
Dwarfpool
Miningpoolhub
Suprnova

The following pools have not yet upgraded:
Coin-base
Please note that we will update this list as soon as any there are any updates.

The 75% threshold value was reached in approximately 6 days. The 95% threshold value was reached in approximately 10 days. As of last week the Groestlcoin network BIP66 soft fork is completed.

Bitcoin BIP66 Fork Incident
Bitcoin's BIP66 enforcement lead to a fork of the network once the 95% threshold had been reached. This was caused by mining pools representing half the hashing power of the network not validating blocks properly due to SPV mining, despite publishing v3 blocks and building on top of an invalid block leading to a 6 block deep fork. After the issue was identified, the miners corrected the issue and a block reorgonisation took place, orphaning the invalid fork.
We have discussed this issue with various pools and have confirmed that full validation nodes are being used. Despite this, we have been monitoring the network to make sure any issues were promptly dealt with. More details about the incident can be found here.

Some proposals for our website: (and fbpage)

1 style: so everything is also designwise interconnected like the system is.

Simultaneously with a big release new update for the site:

only a few little things:

1 no auto start-up of the grs clip, different clip on the site:

no auto start-up of the GRS movie/clip and instead of the clip on our site,The other one I found on our twitter with a length of 37secs
is like 100 times better than we have now on our site. We have everything there that tells our story. The one we have now is absolutely not. Also annoying when your audio is on when the clip automatically starts (With music). Like I said other clip is extremely professional and 100 times better.

2 Smoother webdesign

more flowing design-- up to designers

3 priceticker also in usd -- the priceticker is now only in satoshi--> better to have satoshi/usd     0.0000500 satoshi/ $1,50/1000

4 userfriendly design like easyminer, jswallet etc. WAY MORE PROMINENT ON THE SITE.

that's it, just a small update:)

[themikeymen001]

We have a promo girl, with the t-shirt and sometimes without. Can we create a virtual girl, based on her?! that helps, guides people through GRS, welcomes on the site, in software, in clips about GRS etc.


Hope to hear from the devs on short notice... We already have a promo girl which is lookwise, likeable, make her virtual, make her miss GRS and we have our guidance through everything...

For me that will work.... Also think about repolishing the logo, even simpler.

A logo that is ready for 2016-2017 is a must.

How can we involve more people in GRS from the IKEA perspective:

When you do some effort for something--> you perceive something as more beautiful and more yours and
are willing to spend, more time, money and effort.

How can we create this.....

...

I'm all for increasing awareness and getting more people involved, but I'm not sure this is the best way to give away 5M GRS. Stellar gaveaway stakes in its currency for facebook likes, and there was youtube videos showing people showing other people how to scam the system and get hundreds or thousands of stakes. For instance:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5W04YZSMY3c

Just something to consider...

[themikeymen001]

Lets talk about better ways to organize giveaways......... Proposals. As long as we keep growing.

I'm not saying I have anything better. I'm much better at complaining than I am at being constructive  

Maybe though, we could have some trading contest, where each contestant says how they would invest 10 (imaginary) BTC into alts, and then after a couple weeks, the winner gets a larger prize, like 10k GRS, and a few other prizes, but all contestants get 500 GRS, or something. Maybe not a market guessing contest, but I just feel like a contest where some effort is made to create the entry (proof-of-work, so to speak), then you can reward every entry and have a bigger prize for winner(s), rather than just hand out some GRS for something that takes very little effort and can probably be gamed by people with some know-how.

Edit: Or for entry into contest require a facebook like and a contest entry. On second thought, I guess contest could be gamed by just saying you would hold the 10 BTC, or turn it all into LTC, or something...

[themikeymen001]

We could create multiple contest:

                              the developer that makes the most user-friendly update/software/edit to the GRS network.
                              the one that gains the most mh/s for 2 months
                              or we can label some coins like 50 coins, and throw it through the network in as many transactions as possible
                              the one that get the most people: friends/family etc. investing money in GRS
                              or we make a massive agreement to all lay in for example 0,25 BTC and make a large buying order for our minimum GRS price
                              so we create a threshold for example 4btc all together for a 215 satoshi price, after a month we do a review and decide
                              for a new price.
                              or we create together something to buy every hour 100grs for the rest of the year.
                              or at least let's all agree without handing out GRS let's all agree to invite all our FB contacts to like our page. I ALREADY DID THIS OF COURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
                              the one who get the most merchants to use GRS as a payment service.

                              make a youtube movie: the one who can get the most hot girls wear GRS merchandise

                               a lot of fun possibilities

Groestlcoin is coming more and more a worldwide wonder. With even Russian and Chinese translation of the implementations.
