GameCredits 0.15.4 has been released. It is a mandatory upgrade so please prioritize upgrading your GameCredits software to this verison.

https://github.com/gamecredits-project/GameCredits/releases/tag/0.15.4

Update contains the following:
Komodo Seasonal Changes

Komodo's notaries are elected once a year and have a period of 1 year to service the network. New notaries were elected that go into effect on July 15th, 2019. This release ensures that GameCredits remains notarized throughout the regime change period and until the next notary elections.

Komodo dPoW Confirmations

We have enabled dPoW confirmations by default. When a transaction is accepted into a block on the network, it will receive 1 confirmation. The GameCredits daemon will continue to return this single confirmation until a notarization takes place. Once a notarization happens, the true confirmations will be returned. This feature allows services to accept GameCredits in a very secure manner - by ensuring that Komodo has notarized a transaction before crediting balances. As we mentioned in a previous release, Komodo's notarization system prevents 51% attacks on GameCredits. This can be disabled with the flag "-dpowconfs 0" when launching the daemon.

Working Testnet

Testnet is fixed and working in this release. We request anyone developing on GameCredits to please run a testnet node and mine against it. You can use Raspberry Pi 3B's or higher to mine and receive testnet coins.

Updated DNS Seeders

We have shifted the DNS seeder into the https://gamecredits.network umbrella of services. Similarly, a testnet seeder has been launched and put under the same domain. Functionality is unaffected by this change.

Features from previous minor releases:
OpenSSL 1.1 compatibility
Replacing of fixed seeds to 0.15.3 peers
Cleanup of Komodo files to ensure no conflict w/ regtest & testnet, as well as cleaner logic
Fixing testnet4 to use DGW
