includes a large list of new features, improvements, and bug fixes. This release process will be similar Syscoin 2.0 in that we will be performing the hard fork using a network snapshot in order to maximize the benefits of some of the data-saving features such as blockchain pruning and to generally remove the expired Syscoin service data from the current Syscoin blockchain. The exact block height of the snapshot is subject to mining variability and will be based on Syscoin chain height as of 12pm PST, Dec 18th.

follow the steps outlined in the original Syscoin 2.0 launch post. The Syscoin 2.1 release blog post on the 18th will include similar information useful links and a new syscoin.conf file.
