I guess this one is optional, not mandatory, right?
I said this because you stated that the newest version contains minor fixing for the core vulnerability.
Anyway, STRAKS users should update as soon as possible to the newest version of wallet.

Additionally, bright future with the Launchpad PPA on STRAKS platform.
