@everyone *Announcement:* PascalCoin V2 will be released next week along with a revised white-paper. The absolute latest release time will be Jun 23 Friday, but could be anytime from Tuesday the 20th. Features now include:
- *In-protocol account exchange*: allows users to buy/sell accounts directly from the wallet
- *Account Names & Types*: accounts can now register unique names much like domain-name system
- *Infinite-scaling upgrade*: allows true deletable blockchain without impacting new nodes
- *Checkpointing*: nodes only need to keep 100 latest blocks
- *Improved difficulty adjustment algorithm*: provides more stable block times
- *Many bug-fixes and enhancements*: Linux memory-leak, orphaned transaction fix, and much more.
Hard-Fork activation block number will be announced on release, and be around 14 days to allow infrastructure providers time to upgrade.
