No.
Source now is in private repo.
We will make it public at 19-00 GMT.
After the nodes will be updated.
You will have a time to compile the source.
Because you can run your wallet at 19-10 or 20-00 or tomorrow - that's no matter.

You know that the fact that both versions are not avaible at the moment is somehow a problem? Anyway you already send a message to Yobit? they no longer update from themself the wallets and wants to get updated about any updates/forks |

@AmberCoinDev, i don't think that posting it twice in less of 24 hours could help.... you could at least add it directly to the OP but no making posts every page about the mandatory upgrade

He doesn't have to go through the bitcointalk account, he have to do it from the website (there was a dedicated page for the whole process but i forgot the link) |

So I backed up my wallet.dat file. INstalled the new wallet and everything seems normal. Can I unlock it now and start staking again? It still says I'm out of sync. Do I have to backup my wallet.dat file, then delete the ambercoin folder/uninstall the ambercoin wallet completely then reinstall? It now says I'm synced up. Am I making this too complicated? Is it really that easy just install a new wallet? I haven't needed my backup wallet file I don't think. Is the backup just in case something goes wrong?

Just run new wallet... no need to delete anything. |
