Announcement: mandatory update!

For the past few weeks we have been testing a new version of Shift on our testnet. Version 6.3.0 which includes the new 7.0 Lisk code base.
A special thank you for all the members running a Shift testnet delegate!

The new version brings huge improvements in performance and efficiency. The low consensus is now fixed, so no more unnecessary missed blocks. You can read more about the improvements on Github release page: https://github.com/LiskHQ/lisk/releases/tag/0.7.0

Your delegate node has to be updated before block 600,000 (+/- Sunday, April 16).
After this block height old clients are not accepted as peers anymore!
Friday, April 7 we will announce how to update your mainnet node on this page. For now, relax while we prepare the Github branch.
