LUX has successfully implemented a major fork at block 828100.

This fork brings changes to block rewards (which you can find more info about above) and implements various fixes and improvements which we will be talking more about soon. One major enhancement is Schnorr signature integration, which we may be only the 2nd coin to have implemented this (Bitcoin Cash and LUX - Bitcoin is expected to add this soon). Some next steps for our chain upgrades include a full upgrade to the Bitcoin 0.18 codebase. This will allow us to further integrate with partners and move forward with new advanced features.

Special thanks for all the hard work @TopoX & @giaki3003 and the entire Luxcore team. Also, we appreciate the community's support and we are excited about future developments!

FYI, if you did not upgrade your wallet, you can download the latest version at: github You may have to reset your local blocks (if you are on a bad chain), and you can find a guide for that process here: user guide

And if you have already updated, we pushed out a minor update this morning. Nothing major, but if you have the time to upgrade again that would be great.
