PayCon has released Version 2.0.1 (Sept. 9th, 2015)


Version 2.0.1 comes with a the change of Multisend GUI which replaces the CON for Charity function. Multisend allows you to send up to 100% of your Stake to multiple addresses of your choosing. Link to the Cryptsy market has been added to the social/exchange tab and a small fix to the Hashsettings.



Links have been updated in the OP to connect only from release tags in Github rather than a third party such as mediafire.

PayCon is now available on Android from the Google Play store, take your CON anywhere on mobile.




PayCon has released Version 2.0.0 (July 14th, 2015)


-automatic TOR integration - New Clients should upgrade to version 2.0.0 in order to connect to the rest of the network through TOR. TOR is a public and anonymized network which aids in privacy of transactions and security of the network.

Combine threshold set as a default as 100 Coins and 14 days, this means that once your Blocks are older than 14 days and Stake with less than 100 Coins, it will combine multiple Blocks under 100 within the same Stake input until over that amount. You also now have the option to change your combine threshold amount from 100-1000 Coins by adding

combinethreshold= *100-1000*

to your PayCon.conf file

-Hashettings and the timedrift between Stakes reduced to 45 seconds from one minute in the drift allowed between Stakes in order to reduce orphans and you can change the settings in your RPC console using the "hashsettings" command.

-4 new Themes, removed Owlcon and Muggle Theme's (Thank you DCgirl for the new theme's)

Conflict



Luminous

During this time, our Optimus Prime Flux CapacitorsTM will be working overtime delivering MASSIVE amounts of bonus Coins for all bagholders. Worried about Hyper-Inflation? Never fear, our Optimus Prime Flux CapacitorsTM have been funded by our "Volunteer CAF Fund" and create no additional Coins into circulation. Our Optimus Prime Flux CapacitorsTM will generate SuperBlocks at Hashdrifting intervals (approximate times) starting the moment each timer hits 0 and will end Sunday April 19th, 2015 and come in 4 fabulous flavours!

Our Flux Capacitors Will reverse us to time where we were always profitable and never obsolete, back to the days where rainbows wandered the earth with rose tinted glasses, and more fun than a barrel full of monkey's. Our dear leader has provided us with an unimaginable gift to the world, we must all thank him for his glory in Gawd.

Mandatory Update/New features




Along with CON for charity comes nearly a dozen RPC calls (help items), some new icons, Y U no guy added back to the statistics page, better Stake time estimation, sorting of transactions by weight in Coin Control, checkwallet and repairwallet added to tools, ability to set your own Stake split thresholds, increased minimum Fee to 0.05 Coins per transaction/combine. This is a softfork where the new fees will be effective immediately but lower fees will begin to take longer to process until old clients are rejected from the network 03/23/2015 @ 12:00am (UTC)

All fees are paid to Stakers which increases the Proof of Stake Block rewards

CONdate


I need to raise 0.7 btc immediately for a large update, if I can gather the amount by Friday, it will be finished by Sunday. Some people just add 1 feature, I've got 10 and need to recoup costs spent on bringing you the best crypto currency and industry leading technology. There was no ICO and I took over this project, please help support me financially so that I can continue building you a for-profit, multi-million dollar asset.

RPC calls (command line help items)

getmoneysupply (nHeight)  - view the money supply by blockheight
moneysupply - view money supply growth information.
setstakesplitthreshold -  set your stake split threshold and gain more stake
getstakesplitthreshold -  view your threshold limit
addnode - add nodes on the command line
getaddednodeinfo - information about added nodes
rescanfromblock (nheight)  - rescan backups from a certain height
deleteaddress - delete old addresses
stakeforcharity - Set a percent of your stake to be sent automatically to any address

Bug fixes and improvements

Gui Features for CON for Charity
Checkwallet and Repairwallet added to tools along with orphan removal
Added blocks by weight to coin control
Better stake estimation
Fix of volume in statistics to read as accurate money supply
Windows and Mac wallet rebuilds

Minimum fee will be increased to 0.05 Coins per transaction and this will require a hardfork. This change will make it comparatively expensive to send and all fees are paid to Stakers which increases the Proof of Stake Block rewards.

Hardfork occurring at Block 50,000 (Feb, 3rd) changing the Proof of Stake reward to 30 Coins per Block depending on Block size and Coinage, That's right! simulated Proof of Work mining through Proof of Stake without any special hardware!!



Increased rewards!!!

Proof of Stake minimum difficulty changed

From: bnProofOfStakeLimit(~uint256(0) >> 2)

To: bnProofOfStakeLimit(~uint256(0) >> 24)

This change prevents Proof of Stake Blocks from being pushed within seconds of each other, preventing large amounts of orphans and memory exhaustion.

Proof of Stake Rewards changed

From: 50% per year

To: Proof of Stake reward of 30 Coins per Block

The chance to hit a POS Block depends on the number of Coins in the Block (transaction sent to your wallet), time passed since they have remained stationary in your wallet (minmum 2 days and maximum 14 days) and network Staking activity (more Staking activity reduces the chance per person overall)


Stake Split and Combine Thresholds changed

From: 1 day and 1000 Coins (All Blocks smaller than 1000 Coins will combine the Stake and Reward)

To: 5 Days and 500 Coins (if a Block Stakes past 5 Days and is less than 500 Coins, the Stake and reward will combine, otherwise it will split into 2 Blocks)

This change provides more security for the network by encouraging smaller Proof of Stake Blocks for larger rewards and higher rewards at lower difficulty.

New Wallet Changes

Added use of Minimal Coinage for increased rewards



Fix to the IRC Chat and new links to relevant resources



New Splash screen, New Logo's and Icons



Renaming of Placeholder text, Naming, capitalization and change of Volume in Statistics to Total Money Supply[/b]
