Gridcoin Research 3.5.1.7/MSI=35.9
Mandatory Upgrade (before block 364500)
 
- Plugged vulnerability discovered by bitcoin - please upgrade to this new version asap
- Added checkpoint
- Research Age starts at block 364500
- Mandatory (auto disconnect of other nodes) automatically starts at 364500
- Added business logic to verify superblocks to enforce quality of magnitude averages and project averages
- Only lock neural network grid/buttons during sync, show the progress bar, sync efficiency improved, allow user to minimize during sync
  Note: Efficiency will not improve until 364500 Smiley
- Retreive explainmagnitude from a synced node otherwise retry (with daily limit of 10 retries)
- Superblock Spacing: 86400
- Expanded block index starts at 364500 (stores votes/superblock indicators more efficiently)
- Added logging to Neural Network sync process (Dreibo, please check debug2.txt)
- Lets burn this in tonight and verify everything (even though we won't be in the RA phase) - before we ask the exchanges to upgrade
