There are three major components of a cryptocurrency:

1. Economy - which was covered at 2.1 version

2. User experience

3. Use cases

In 2.2.0 version we made a lot of changes which have the intend to make Syndicate more accesible and easier to use for everyone. In our opinion, for a global adoption, people need to understand how to install, use and more important how to benefit from Syndicate wallets. This being said, we want to share with you the following changes:

Notable Changes:

Fake Stake
On Janurary 22 2019, Decentralized Systems Lab out of the University of Illinois published a study entitled Fake Stake attacks on chain-based Proof-of-Stake cryptocurrencies, which outlined a type of Denial of Service attack that could take place on a number of Proof of Stake based networks by exhausting a clients RAM or Disk resources.

This type of attack has no risk to users privacy and does not affect their holdings.

BIP65 (CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY) Soft-Fork
Syndicate Core v2.2.0 introduces new consensus rules for scripting pathways to support the BIP65 standard. This is being carried out as a soft-fork in order to provide ample time for stakers to update their wallet version.

Bootstrap
Wallet now supports fast bootstrap from the latest snapshot in the cloud or from the file.

Wallet Autoupdate
Wallet downloads new release into /update folder in the data directory and ask user to open it.

Masternode Setup
The new masternode setup features allow you to add a new masternode to your wallet right in the masternode tab.

In-wallet Proposal Voting
A new UI wallet tab has been introduced that allows users to view the current budget proposals, their vote counts, and vote on proposals if the wallet is acting as a masternode controller. The visual design is to be considered temporary, and will be undergoing further design and display improvements in the future.

Gui Changes:

Console Security Warning
Due to an increase in social engineering attacks/scams that rely on users relaying information from console commands, a new warning message has been added to the Console windows initial welcome message.

Optional Hiding of Orphan Stakes
The options dialog now contains a checkbox option to hide the display of orphan stakes from both the overview and transaction history sections. Further, a right-click context menu option has been introduced in the transaction history tab to achieve the same effect.

Note: This option only affects the visual display of orphan stakes, and will not prevent them nor remove them from the underlying wallet database.

Transaction Type Recoloring
The color of various transaction types has been reworked to provide better visual feedback. Staking and masternode rewards are now purple, orphan stakes are now light gray, other rejected transactions are in red, and normal receive/send transactions are black.

Receive Tab Changes
The address to be used when creating a new payment request is now automatically displayed in the form. This field is not user-editable, and will be updated as needed by the wallet.

A new button has been added below the payment request form, Receiving Addresses, which allows for quicker access to all the known receiving addresses. This one-click button is the same as using the File->Receiving Addresses... menu command, and will open up the Receiving Addresses UI dialog.

Historical payment requests now also display the address used for the request in the history table. While this information was already available when clicking the Show button, it was an extra step that shouldnt have been necessary.

!!! Mandatory Update

Syndicate Core 2.2.0 is a mandatory update for all users. This release contains new consensus rules and improvements that are not backwards compatible with older versions. Users will have a grace period of three weeks to update their clients before enforcement of this update is enabled.

Users updating from a previous version will require a full resync of their local blockchain from the P2P network.

 -How to Upgrade- 

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then copy over syndicate-qt.exe (on Windows) or /Applications/Syndicate-Qt (on Mac) or syndicated/syndicate-qt (on Linux).

 -How to upgrade your Masternode-
