But wasn't Alloy CryptoNight/CryptoNote even before? I'm mining it since some weeks with cryptonight algo... So what's the change?
I downloaded the new ver 2.2.0 and having this errore continuosly even if the balance seems to look correct:
2018-Mar-02 03:55:26.200844 WARNING CHECKPOINT FAILED FOR HEIGHT 15261. EXPECTED
HASH: 4009419ee181ef6ec47baaf7ab5bb2c5f251e0ddfd24af9eba6dfa77be01bec2, FETCHED

What to do? Does it need to be fixed in some way or should I just ignore it?
Thank you!
You can ignore those warnings. They are generated from the older clients on the network.
We are still on cryptonight but plan to move to a custom POW algorithm in the future.
At block 17500, we will activate the new miner fairness algorithm (new diff algo) to make it easier for smaller miners to compete with nice hash, etc.
