Notes

Multisig example for PSST can be looked up in transaction 76ab09236a7aa13fe8f5389c74545c0110d4bba1ca778e49367d4d8de827834b.

The windows-msvc-amd64 is recommended for most purposes as it offers the best interoperability with other Windows software. Note that this requires accepting the End User License Agreement (EULA) for the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable runtime. You can download and install the runtime from here.

Use the windows-gnullvm-amd64 version if you prefer not to accept the MSVC runtime EULA. Additional platform support is explained in more detail in the README.md

v0.3.14

Changes

• First version, the famous Pi
• CPU-only mining algorithm SpectreX based on AstroBWTv3
• DAG sync from scratch with heavy SpectreX pruning point and header validation
• Stealth and untraceable mining

Notes

The newly released node is designed as a direct substitute for the existing Golang node. Going forward, the Spectre on Rust will be the primary and recommended node software for the Spectre network. Users no longer need to download the datadir2 for the Golang node or datadir for the Rust node, and should discontinue these actions. We strongly recommend switching to the Rust based version.
