, adding the 3.5% secure node rewards to the current 8.5% pool. These funds will be held in escrow until the secure node network goes live. Swapping out old community fund addresses for new ones .

. New DNS seeders for improved network discovery .

. Changing the requirement for community fund UTXO to first be sent to z_addresses. These funds will still all be sent through z_addresses before being spent to preserve fungibility, but requiring it in the first step limits multisig security.

Here’s How to Upgrade Your ZenCash Software. This is a mandatory upgrade that must be done before block 139,200, which will occur around 14:00 EDT on Friday the 21st.

The ZenCash development team is working hard to continuously improve our system. Many thanks to @lpsun, @anarch3, @lukas, @cronic, and @smrtz getting this ready and for all the hard work in #developers testing!
