Software Upgrade: ZEN 2.0.15
New ZEN software (2.0.15) is available for download today, September 28th, 2018.
ZEN 2.0.15 replaces the current version 2.0.14, which is set to deprecate (no longer run). The major focus is on updating the Bitcoin Consensus algorithm. This is not a hard fork.
New binaries have been released. Please update your ZEN software before October 10th. The new 2.0.15 version will be available at https://github.com/HorizenOfficial/zen/releases or through the APT repository by end of day 9/27/2018.

What happens if you do not upgrade before October 10th?
