Just to keep this at the bottom of the page for those who hate reading.
OK everyone, first, you guys are awesome. I just want to reiterate a few of the comments above about how great this community is being as we work through these issues.
Now, onto the reason for my post. For all of you self compilers out there v2.0.4.0 is up on github, delete your peers.dat and either use a pre-PoS blockchain backup, or sync from scratch. If you are not 100% sure that your backup is from before block 259200 fire up an older version of the wallet with your backup and verify the block number. We seem to have a lot of people not following this step, which is exacerbating the problems with our testing.
We will get the precompiled binaries up as quickly as we can, let's try to break this one, we think we have it fixed, but, as you all know, it is not the first time we thought that. Most of the previous fixes were based on less complete info than this one, so....
Everyone should not get too attached to any coins you have staked or earned with your masternodes, once we confirm the problems are solved we will be rolling back to the beginning of PoS, so if that is the reason some of you are not replacing your blockchain when switching to the new version, please stop.
As usual, report all issues here, we really need your help. So far all of these versions have worked well when testing with a small group, it isn't until we release you guys on it that you are able to break it for us and further the cause. We just want to thank you all again for being so great about this.
pardon me which nodes for "protocolversion" : 70600 ?
Really, I would like to see everyone try it without addnodes. We really shouldn't need them, we haven't for the past several releases. I added a lot of hardcoded nodes long before PoS. Everyone's wallet should just connect. With that said I will list a few if people can't seem to connect.
The 64 bit Windows binary is up, as well. I will get the others up as they finish building.
