Does anyone knows what "Restricting the stake withdrawal address" means? I saw is one of the hardfork features.

This means that when you kill your identity the amount of coins in stake could be sent to any address such as the address of the exchange. But as it is not a "normal" transaction these coins do not reach the exchange, now it is limited to your own address only.

hmm this "feature" was implemented for some time, I know I killed my identity once and the only address I could send the coins was mine.

Thanks for the heads-up guys, I will update asap my node too. Anyone knows what is the latest version - the hardfork version - so I will update to the latest one? Is already out?

It is going on in 32 minutes from this post. So, it will be/should be complete in 1 hour 32 minutes from this post. I am glad they are forcing all mining status off so it will be an easy transition.

Thanks mate!

Everyone ready for today hardfork? It is planned from 12:30 to 13:30 UTC. All mining status will be deactivated. You will have to update node to start mining again (It's good to update ASAP to mine faster (with lower difficulty) before others update their nodes).

I got my first mining penalty Sad

last night. Im not even sure what happened, when I woke up I checked and my vps node was off. I checked my logs and I did not see anything to cause it. I'm going to create a cronjob to avoid this in the future.

Hi buddy, to avoid this problem in the future you can add your node to the telegram bot ( @idna_node_watcher_Bot ) and it will alert you when your node is inactive for more than 15min, this way you avoid the penalty.

I have a cronjob in all my nodes to restart the server every 24 hours, it has never given me problems, I hope it helps you...
restart the computer at 11AM every day "0 11 * * * /sbin/shutdown -r +5"

You can also use realRioda's website notifier on idena.site to avoid downtime. But it works only if you are awake and near your PC since you have under 1h to restart the node.

Unfortunately, AFAIK, smart-contracts aren't available in this hardfork.

No, that will be in a future fork. This is still the beginning, it is a new idea of a project so there will need to be many improvements as the time goes on and more problems arrive.

do we have to do anything other than updating the client for the hardfork ? I'm running the latest build in a VPS

No, the maximum that will need to be done is to update the version of the node and the client. But just in case, it's better to keep an eye on updates.

Everything is alright. Hardfork is scheduled for September 23, 2020 (in about 3 days).

https://medium.com/idena/idena-hard-fork-announcement-b8e36ee756bb

Main reason? I was already writing here about changes. I'll quote it once again.

There is no hardfork scheduled in the coming days as far as I know. Last ford was a long time ago and was to implement some features/changes into the validation (6 flips instead of 5, more words to choose from,etc).
