Now that 0.4.9-a has got itself sorted on my laptop it's been rock solid. Which is a mixed blessing because I am becoming addicted to day trading on the platform haha. It would probably be safer if I knew WTF I was doing  :o

fugure versions will ask you to update on launch if you find a newer version

Is it possible to have a notification in status bar saying: "Not connected to the network, please chack for updated client at: <LINK>"
when no connections available?
Or better have a simple update notification that with every client startup it checks if there is a new version available to download.

If it is not possible to submit changes and have backward compatibility of the network, I think this could decrease the BTSX price falling ratio.

I think 3I need to recruit more Window programmers, especially GUI coder. Because it seems linux version is quite stable, but most of the bugs are from WIN, unfortunately, most of the users are WIN users. Win sucks, but more popular.

Mac GUI wallet has not crashed on me and I use it every day.

My 0.4.8-b Windows GUI hasn't crashed on me and I've been doing a fair amount of day trading.

Is there a 0.4.8-b Windows GUI exe? It's not on DAC Sun or bitshares-x.info. I haven't been able to get 0.4.8-a to work without crashing on two separate computers.

Try make it backwards compatible with windows xp service pack 3.

Guess they haven't officially released it yet but I've been using it all day on Win7 without a single issue.

The nature of new software being released is that you cannot test all environments prior to launch, especially "crashes".


Which is why I support this open "beta". There were dry runs but no one hits them as hard as when it's the real deal.

same to me! Working stable!

Maybe other wallets/devices could cause a crash. (example - on OSX 10.4.8 ) I had problems with Trezor/BTSX wallet if Trezor is plugged at same time i tried to open my BTSX wallet.

I can not connect right now. This is embarrasing...
For who? I'd much rather assist with ironing out these issues than have the product delayed another six months 8).

Having the community hammering away at it is an effective way to ferret out issues from a large cross section of users and geographies.
