Community Update – Random Mutex, HTTP Parsing

We are excited to update the community on the recent additions and improvements to the MoneroV project. Be sure to get updated and check out the community & ambassador program, join the discussion on Telegram and follow us on Twitter.

The team and community are looking forward to expanding the adoption of XMV as a privacy cryptocurrency and blockchain project. You can take part by suggesting improvements, mining, spreading the word or by implementing the MonerovWP plugin on your website.

Random Mutex Initialization Fix

An issue in the way the random mutex in the core crypto component was selected was faulty. This bug exists in all Cryptonote based coins and although it isn’t critical, we suggest everyone upgrade to the newest version as the selection order is fixed in the latest release.

Improper Log Levels Overall Fix

The MoneroV daemon log levels have had a major overhaul change and improper log levels were fixed in simplewallet. In additon, the GUI wallet has been updated to work even faster and previous lagging components were fixed.

Daemon HTTP Parsing Improvement

An update to the MoneroV peer-to-peer protocol fixed a couple of bugs which prevented users from connecting into the MoneroV protocol including an additional HTTP parsing bug. Users who have been facing connectivity issues should upgrade their clients to ensure a steady connection to the network.

Additional updates:

Compilation on MinGW with pthread was fixed
Multiple warning messages were fixed
