version, and that users need to move their bitcoins. We apologize for |
|

the inconvenience. We try to keep this kind of upgrades as rare as |
|

possible. |

LIST OF UPGRADES: |
|
||||
----------------- |
|
||||
|
|
||||
Version 0.34: The key derivation was changed again in version 0.34, in order to offer "type 2 wallet" capabilities. |
|
||||
Version 0.31: This version fixes a vulnerability in the key generation function. |
|
||||

|
|
||||
HOW TO UPGRADE: |
|
||||
--------------- |
|
||||
|
|
||||
If your wallet is deprecated, you will see a message asking you to |
|
||||
create a new wallet and to move your balance to the new wallet. |
|
||||
|
|
||||
Here are the steps that you need to follow: |
|
||||
* create a new wallet with the new version of Electrum: /path/to/new/electrum.py -w my_new_wallet.dat |
|
||||
* copy a receiving address from the new wallet |
|
||||
* open your old wallet with the old version of Electrum: /path/to/old/electrum.py -w my_old_wallet |
|
||||
* move your entire balance to the new address. |
|
||||
|
|
||||
Note that you may keep your current seed. For this, all you need to do |
|
||||
is to create the new wallet using the wallet recovery procedure. You |
|
||||
will not recover your old wallet with the new software, but you will |
|
||||
get a new wallet instead. |
