Mandatory Version 1.3.2 Client Upgrade

Community,

There is a mandatory update for Bitcoin Scrypt to version 1.3.2 for a hard-fork at Block 96000 to change the difficulty algo.  All clients must update or risk losing coins!

Under the new difficulty algorithm, the difficulty will adjust once every 2520 blocks.  Thus, with 2 minute blocks the difficulty should adjust once every 3.5 days.  After this new algo takes effect, we will evaluate and tweak, as necessary, for stability.

SOFTWARE DOWNLOADS

Windows: The Windows Installer for version 1.3.2 Self-Install package can be found here:

Mac: The Install DMG for version 1.3.2 (Mac OS) can be found here.

Compiling instructions for v.1.3.2 can be found here.

Again, this is a mandatory upgrade to client v.1.3.2 because of a hard-fork at block 96000 and older clients will no longer work on the blockchain.
