Website still not updated... All links still point to 2.9.3... and the page still says latest is V2.9.3.
Seems the binaries are on the download server here: https://download.electrum.org/3.0/
Not sure if they're final tho?

Looks like they already fixed that. Check the website.Seems the binaries are on the download server here: https://download.electrum.org/3.0/

#useAtYourOwnRiskI believe it's already safe since they released it at the GitHub repo: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/releases/tag/3.0.0
I also had to upgrade my wallet file to a non backward compatible format. Make sure you have your seed saved somewhere to avoid any issues.
Also, looks like you can't view a address with segwit's native format at the blockchain.info explorer. Is it okay to use it?
I just created a new segwit wallet but my new address start with bc1*************** and not with 3*********
Why?
Why?
This is a native segwit standard (so called bech32 address using P2WPKH) but this is not yet supported by merchants or other wallets. The addresses starting with 3 are P2SH addresses. They can specify many things, including segwit embedded inside P2SH (P2SH-P2WPKH). I figured out how to create such a wallet in Electrum (use BIP39 seed and m/49'/1'/0' derivation path) but it may be better to wait for some more official tutorials.
Unfortunately, segwit wallets are not standardized yet and there might be problems with importing/exporting keys between wallets.
