Pactus Blockchain Version 0.16.1 is now available for download. This release includes a graphical user interface (GUI) that is suitable for both beginners and experienced users. It also includes a command-line interface (CLI) for advanced users and wallet software that allows users to interact with the blockchain without the need to sync the entire blockchain.
In this version, the private IP address won’t be advertised, and by default,
nodes try to find if they have any public IP address.
If so, they will advertise it. Users can also set the public_address in the config file.
This feature specifically helps users who have both public and private IP addresses to always advertise the public addresses.
Users can still use the private network if they enable the force_private_network option inside the config file.
Most users don’t need to change their node’s configuration.
This version has been implemented for Testnet-2 and is being prepared for the upcoming Mainnet launch. To start using Pactus Blockchain Testnet-2, download the latest version from the download page and join the Testnet.
