Hi everyone,

I just fired up my wallet that I haven't touched since 2016.

It will not let me send. It gives me a connection error after I enter address and amount to send to.

Then I noticed that my wallet says "Byteball" and the new wallet says "Obyte". Do I need to upgrade before I can send?

If so, do I need to do it in a specific manner in order not to lose access to my funds?

Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Jon

You didn't mention what platform you are using, but in case it's Windows then you just download the new installer and re-install it.

You will also have to accept all the Witness (Order Provider) changes after you launch the new version, there has been 7 changes.

I am using Mac.
