thanks for clearing this up for me! I agree, the devs of the coins should all use alerts in their wallet software.

Your coins will not become worthless or invalid.  You will not be able to send or receive coins until you update your client.  If the devs of the coin are smart, then they will be using the alert system to notify the users of updates.  That way we don't have to be lucky enough to read the forums at the correct time to see the update announcement at the top of the list.

I posted this in the wrong sub-forum earlier today so here goes in the correct forum:

I was just wondering since I see alot of altcoins requiring mandatory updates to the wallet. Does this mean if I don't update to the mandatory wallet, that all my previous coins stored in an older wallet version will be worthless/invalid? I sure hope not...

Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!
