https://medium.com/@colincantrell/legacy-update-the-trust-update-ae0d05cd2f5This update is REQUIRED by 09/14/2018 19:11:00 GMT -7 to keep your wallet running on the main chain.

https://nexusearth.com/technology/the-new-trust-system-wallet-0-2-5-0-required-update/If you are upgrading from 0.2.4.6 or earlier, this version will re-index your blockchain database the first time it runs. The process will take a while, up to 5-10x the normal load time depending on your hardware. Just let it load, then let it sync completely.
After the initial load, this version should cut your previous load time roughly in half.
For Linux users who compile manually, the re-indexing is much faster.
Upgrade process (Windows and Mac GUI):
Backup your current wallet
Exit wallet
Download 0.2.5.0: nexus-qt.exe for Windows, nexus-qt.dmg for Mac
Run the new executable instead of the old one
Optional:
The recent.zip database bootstrap contains a copy of the database that is already re-indexed. You might save time by using this to manually replace your current blockchain database. Download file and instructions on nexusearth.com
EDIT:
UPDATE:
If you experienced issues with your wallet syncing after the 2.5 update, please update to the RC-2 branch by downloading the new .exe or .dmg file from Github. You do not need to update if you did not have any syncing issues:
