It's so exciting to see this project growing and thriving even from when I first joined only a few months ago. I hope you're all as excited as I am to help PIVX continue to blossom. Without further ado, here's some highlights of what's going on lately.



MANDATORY Desktop Wallet Upgrade to 2.3.0 - There is a new wallet available for all desktop clients. This is a mandatory wallet upgrade. This is a new major version release, including various bug fixes and

performance improvements, as well as updated translations. A full list of improvements is in the release notes here.

Need help verifying your version?

To check what version you are on, open your wallet, and go to Help -> About and make sure you're on 2.3.0, or using the command line type getinfo and make sure your version says 2030000









Beta Android Wallet Now Available on Play Store - In case you missed it, a super slick Android Wallet is now available in the Google Play Store, with development led by @furszy. Features in this wallet include wallet backups, a contacts book, QR Codes, and a bad-ass surprise App opening intro (The intro noise will be optional in the next version) Great work Furszy, and look out for news on an iOS App and improved Android capabilities in the near future.
