Team Guncoin is releasing a mandatory security patch upgrade - GUN Core V1.5.1.  This is required due to a recent Bitcoin Core Team announcement of a vulnerability that was discovered last week in 0.16.0.  As a result, Bitcoin Core is now at 0.16.3 and that includes the patch to eliminate the risk of the vulnerability to be exploited.

If you are running 1.5 and have already synced past the block with the illegal TX then you will need to start 1.5.1 with reindex=1 in your conf file, remember to remove that line before the next time you start.  We have had Cryptopia to put GUN in Maintenance mode UNTIL the majority of the blockchain is on the new code.  We will also update the seed nodes and the GUNCOINPOOL.com mining pool as well.  We will be updating website and OP here shortly.

All wallets have now been updated and are available on the website as well as from the GitHub link above.  Please upgrade as soon as you can.
