"It is imperative that ALL users of the dash client update to the most recent version of the client as soon as possible. End users, miners, pool operators, exchanges, and masternode owners have until Sunday, February 12th to update. After that date, we will switch completely to the new version as soon as our engineers determine it is safe to do so, and older versions of the software will drop off the network."



^ Perhaps I should have used Evan's more exact wording on the show. He writes "after that date," while I had said "on that date." So my bad there. But it is not at all a surprise that people expected enforcement on or just after the 12th. Uhhh, just to clear my own name here, I definitely did not make up the 12th as an enforcement date to report on DASH: Detailed. In Evan's 12.1 writeup , he published precisely:"It is imperative that ALL users of the dash client update to the most recent version of the client as soon as possible. End users, miners, pool operators, exchanges, and masternode owners have until Sunday, February 12th to update.

hey amandasorry no offencemy badyes evan set that date in the announcement (u are definately cleared here- it is all on me - totally missed that date line sorry again)"on" 12thand"after" 12this exactly what i am talking aboutwell anywaydates should never be set for technical updates and enforcementenforcement depends 100% on technical details and not human factors (sorry to all of us humans involved)merchants question - yes there are merchants but they are not forcing anybody to do anything - we are just trying to protect them and their transfers (as any "good" network would do)3rd partiesthis is the concern here - exodus , jaxx , exchanges .... we want to ensure everybody is on the right version before enforcing . they are not forcing us ether , but as said above it is our responsibility to give them enough time to update . (we do NOT want to fork them or be forked by them so better save than sorry)obviously the community is desperate to update , just give it another couple of days please , check the numbers we are nearly therepersonal thoughtsmoothest update everrrrr (in my 3 years in drk/ dash)why the rush ? if the tech department / quality controll suggests more time is needed - hell yeah - give them another couple of days - they brought us so far why screw it up now ?
