Ran my Bytecoin 0.8.1.0 client this morning and received an "Alert key compromised, upgrade required" error message.  Anyone know what this is about? TIA.

This is a really old version; alert keys were deprecated way back in 2018 I think. You can ignore the message.

Best to upgrade to the newest version of bytecoin (v27.0.0); based on bitcoin v27.0.
I've just released it here: https://github.com/bytecoin-crypto/bytecoin

You can connect to bytecoin mainnet node at 178.79.133.60:6333 and a bytecoin testnet node at 178.79.133.60:16333

Make sure you backup any old wallet(s) before importing them into the new version, just in case it corrupts it.


Thanks \for replying.

Is your release based on the original BTE implementation or Ahmed Bodi's fork?
