Jumbucks New Wallet Version 1.9 - Please upgradeHi all, A new wallet version 1.9 has been released for Jumbucks. This release is a clean upgrade for users currently running version 1.8 of the wallet. If you are upgrading from version 1.7 or prior, please follow the steps in the release notes of version 1.8 as the data directory was renamed in that release. New users may install the wallet as is. Highlights of this release include greatly improved wallet and staking performance. This release is an incremental step to being a very solid cryptocurrency. It has some staking changes which improves wallet performance and the network for the long term future. The next update will likely change the block times to something longer, for example up from 60 seconds to 100 seconds and change the proof of stake algorithm to SHA256. This would be a version 2.0 release as it requires a hard fork. We remind you that the primary communications channel is Jumbucks Slack. Thank you for your support! Download links:Github: https://github.com/jyap808/jumbucks/releases/tag/v1.9Changes:- Removed the unused encrypted messaging feature. This saves memory and network resources.
- Modify Proof of Stake rewards to change based on nTime as opposed to block count. This makes the switchover at year 2 and year 10 exact in time.
- Increase the number of nodes required (from 3 to 5) to be connected for staking for better broadcasting of blocks.
- Rebalance staking network. More inputs, less resources, better stake payouts. This also results in a more stable wallet taking up less resources.
- Only sign blocks based on current time as slow systems can unintentionally lag behind. This helps to reduce network orphaned blocks.
- RPC command getwalletinfo - Modify to add more details
- RPC command dumpbootstrap - New command
Signed version tag:This version has been tagged and signed as v1.9 in Git. Verify it using my GPG public key on https://keybase.io/jyap. $ object 066fe329186ef86f2d22df49b288fffa6620f753 type commit tag v1.9 tagger Julian Yap <> 1442281566 -1000

Julian, mandatory?
Technically, yes. Most have upgraded. You are highly encouraged to upgrade ASAP as this release takes up less resources too. The exchanges Bittrex and Bleutrade have also upgraded. Cryptsy is unfortunately running 1.7. In this change in the 1.8 release: commit 9dd0268580d3c73ccc77ae512d7203bb9b1fc6ff Date: Sun Sep 13 22:55:21 2015 -1000
Change Proof of Stake rewards to change based on nTime as opposed to block count.
The next reward change kicks in at exactly 2 years since launch: if (pindexBest->nTime >= 1472688000) // Thu, 01 Sep 2016 00:00:00 UTC
Previously it kicked in based on block count: if (nHeight >= YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT * 2)
Where YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT was set to: static const int64_t YEARLY_BLOCKCOUNT = 525600; // 60 * 24 * 365
So you definitely MUST upgrade prior to block 1,051,200. Currently at block 606,987. The next update will most likely be a hard fork so that will be a mandatory update but I'll give ample time to upgrade that.

Here are some observations. Jumbucks Version 1.9 was released this 22 days ago which allowed time for most to upgrade (over 75% of nodes). In the first yellow box, the Interval column, we can see that thanks to the changes in version 1.9, daily block times are now more stable around the 60 second mark. Prior to this, daily block times were around 48 to 57 seconds. In the 2nd yellow box, the Transactions column, we can see that wiith the addition of the Jumbucks Slack tip bot, transactions have increased nicely. On another note, I have experienced issues with withdrawing Jumbucks from the exchange Cryptsy and so has at least one other person ( https://twitter.com/alex_sterk/status/651462998737879040). I've filed a support ticket with Cryptsy but unfortunately there's not much that can be in this situation. This illustrates a reason why it's important not to hold large amounts of cryptocurrencies on 3rd party exchanges. Don't forget to Join Jumbucks Slack. Currently 17 users online now of 271 registered.

what the POS % and timeframe? thanks
Hey SecretsOfCrypto The last PoW block was block 30k. Jumbucks launched September 2014. There is currently 8% PoS interest with a max stake block reward of 4 JBS. At the end of 2 years, it becomes 5% interest and MAX_STAKE_BLOCK_REWARD = 2.5 At the end of 10 years, it becomes 2% interest and MAX_STAKE_BLOCK_REWARD = 1 Relevant Proof of Stake switchover code below: if (pindexBest->nTime >= 1472688000) // Thu, 01 Sep 2016 00:00:00 UTC { // Year 2. 5% interest and MAX_STAKE_BLOCK_REWARD = 2.5 nSubsidy = nCoinAge * 5 * CENT * 33 / (365 * 33 + 8); nSubsidyLimit = 2.5 * COIN; } if (pindexBest->nTime >= 1725148800) // Sun, 01 Sep 2024 00:00:00 UTC { // Year 10. 2% interest and MAX_STAKE_BLOCK_REWARD = 1 nSubsidy = nCoinAge * 2 * CENT * 33 / (365 * 33 + 8); nSubsidyLimit = 1 * COIN; }

Vulnerability in UPnP library used by Bitcoin CoreToday Bitcoin Core put out a warning stating that "Version before 1.9.20151008 of the miniupnpc library are vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the XML parser during initial network discovery". We have made the necessary code changes so that Jumbucks is now compatible with the latest versions of the miniupnpc library. We have also bumped the latest version in the Jumbucks source code to version 1.9.1. Feel free to upgrade via building a new wallet if you are so inclined. The Jumbucks developers have decided we won't be building a new release version just for this change as this issue requires "running a malicious UPnP server on the local network" to crash the application. If this is an issue, disabling UPnP is the recommended course of action as stated in the original announcement. Future versions of the Jumbucks wallet will have the latest version of the miniupnpc library built in unlike future versions of Bitcoin who have decided to disable miniupnpc by default. The benefit of the Jumbucks wallet accept incoming connections from other peers by default greatly outweighs the potential issues that miniupnpc may have that can be worked around or patched in future versions quite easily. Thank you, Julian
