- [FFE] bitcoin: Mandatory upgrade on May 15 + [SRU] bitcoin: Mandatory upgrade on May 15 ** Description changed: + [Impact] + http://bitcoin.org/may15.html What is happening If you are using Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoind version 0.7.2 or earlier, you must take action before 15 May, 2013. If you do nothing, you are likely to be left behind and will be out of sync with the rest of the Bitcoin network. We recommend that you upgrade to version 0.8.1 before the 15th of May to avoid any issues. If you are a solo miner or mining pool operator, please see the the notes at the end of this page for how to upgrade safely. If you cannot upgrade to version 0.8.1 If you cannot upgrade to the latest version, you can still avoid the problem.
