IMPORTANT - ALL LINX MINING POOLS PLEASE READApologies for the short lead time on this, but an issue arose while we were running future tests on our own new mining pool which is about to be launched.
The issue was regarding the block template and has now been rectified in an updated version of the source (v1.0.0.4), but pool owners will need to update and rebuild their wallets and also make some changes to their pool code to avoid receiving rejected blocks.
Please read on...
The Linx Dev Fee begins at block
#315001.
This does not reduce the block reward for miners at all, it is a separate transaction, but you will need to reconfigure your pools to handle the new block template. Any pools that fail to update their code will start seeing rejected blocks from #315001 onwards so please ensure you have read and understood what needs to be done below.
1) UPDATE YOUR WALLET...First you need to compile and build the latest version of the source from our repo (v1.0.0.4).
https://github.com/linX-project/linXYou can either clone and build from scratch or git pull then rebuild.
You should do this right away. There is new code in place to handle the the block template switch over automatically.
If you don't update your daemon you will start to receive rejected blocks when the dev fee kicks in.
2) UPDATE YOUR POOL SOFTWARE AND CONFIG FILES...Please see the following repo for all the instructions you need, it's a very simple process, just a couple of changes to be made.
https://github.com/linX-project/linx-unomp-pool-settingsIMPORTANT : Do not try to make these changes BEFORE block #315001If you try to implement these changes before you will see rejected blocks.
These changes should only be applied once the blockchain has reached block #315001
Users do not need to update their wallets, this is only a fix for the pools, but there will be new releases of the latest wallets shortly if you do wish to upgrade.
Cheers,
Team Linx
