UPDATES ON THE UPCOMING FORK
Some updates on the upcoming pow change fork: Its not a minor tweak on cryptonight, its an effort to create a modified asic resistant cryptonight pow without having to fork periodically. We believe that this has been accomplished. The fork's exact blockheight has not been decided yet but it will be within the next couple of weeks as the code must first be thoroughly checked. Base code for the pow change has already been merged on github https://github.com/sumoprojects/sumokoin/pull/95. A full, comprehensive,writeup explaining the changes implemented will be posted on github before the fork. There is a change on cpu/gpu produced hashrate ratio benchmarks in favor of GPUs, this is a result of the tweak which might eventually prove useful in limiting botnet mining on our network. GPU code is almost finished and being tested while a patched xmr-stak for sumo mining with the new algo will be released, by stak's developers, before the fork. Users need not withdraw their coins from the exchanges. For coins stored on local wallets, users will have to download the updated binaries and/or the updated gui wallet and restore their wallet. Finally the light/multisig wallet release might delay a few days (it was expected by the end of March) due to this fork. Thank you!
