 +===== September 19 2022 =====
 +
 +@here - Auto-Update to version 3.6.0 has been signed.
 +
 +GitHub release has been done as well - 
 +https://github.com/Qortal/qortal/releases/tag/v3.6.0
 +
 +
 +@here The more people we have with the MemPoW ENABLED for TESTING, the better. 
 +
 +- Right now we are testing the MemPoW algo before it gets ENFORCED in Qortal consensus for minting. 
 +
 +- We have enabled the MemPoW in TESTING mode so that people can test it and give us results on different hardware configurations, so that we're 100% sure before we enforce it that it will run flawlessly on EVERY computer. (Right now I am testing it on both my laptop and a 4GB pi 4, both of which are running great.)
 +
 +- The more results we have of various hardware configurations, the better we will be able to dial in the MemPoW for performance on every potential environment.
 +
 +- Contrary to the NAME, the MemPoW does NOT use a lot of RAM. It is focused more on memory BANDWIDTH and uses only ~1MB of RAM, so don't worry about it 'using up your memory' as that isn't a concern.
 +
 +- We need as many results from as many people with different hardware configurations as possible.
 +
 +please put these settings into your settings.json file, then restart your Qortal Core, in order to start testing the MemPoW during minting. 
 +
 +If you would like to also remove your logs to start with fresh logs when you do this, that would be a good idea. Then save your logs from the point you enabled the MemPoW so that you can send the logs to us after whatever period of time, along with your system specs (processor, CPU, RAM, overall computer information - is it a desktop, laptop, server, SBC, etc...) so that we can evaluate the results and take them into consideration.

 +
 +Thank you! 
 +
 +(use MemPoW Results Thread here for posting your results so we can make a results database - https://canary.discord.com/channels/348175815822802946/1021615556555710516)

 +===== August 26 2022 =====
 +@here Qortal Core version 3.5.0 auto-update has been signed 🙂 
 +Network will begin updating shortly. 🙂 
 +
 +this update includes further networking improvements, and ARRR support on the core side. 
 +
 +The UI update will follow (most likely tomorrow) and implement the visible ARRR functionality!
 +
 +ARRR mateys!
 +
 +===== August 19 2022 =====
 +
 +@here We are doing the final dev testing of the ARRR integration now! 
 +
 +both a fully functional ARRR wallet (with memo field) and ARRR-QORT cross-chain trades will be possible once we finish the testing and make it live.
 +
 +Our customized ARRR libraries will be hosted on QDN and downloaded upon access of the ARRR wallet inside the Qortal UI.
 +
 +The ARRR wallet will be similar to the other wallets in that it will 'follow' your main Qortal account, so you can backup the one Qortal backup file, and all of your wallets come with it.
 +
 +We are very excited about this long-planned integration being near complete! 
 +
 +I will post more as the testing continues and we are ready to push it live
 +
 +{{:annoucement_aug_19.png?600|}}
 +
 +This integration was NOT SIMPLE, and required some SERIOUS DEV SKILL to build, if you would like to show your ❤️ to the devs, you can do so by sending QORT to 
 +DevFund
 + - or of course, by directly supporting the devs individually. 🙂 Here's to the future and ARRR/QORT combined community support and collaboration! 
 +another note - the INITIAL support for ARRR, due to multiple difficulties in this area, will be 64bit only - which unfortunately means that the existing QORTectors will not be able to use the ARRR wallet YET... 
 +
 +We will be continually looking into getting 32bit support, and I think we will probably be able to make it happen in the future... and we are also looking into making the next release of the pi 4 (QORTector Gen 2) OS 64bit... though that will require a re-image of the devices at the moment, since we do not yet have an apt repo to do the main kernel updates.
 +
 +That apt repo WILL come in the future, and so will 64bit OS, and the Gen 3 QORTector will be 64bit to start with.
 +
 +We apologize for this temporary inconvenience, and hope to have 32bit support soon.
