This is a leisure update,<br> and are out right this moment,<br> and everyone that are mining on the Gridcoin Network should update. **Investors are not affected of this**\n\nThe second stage will be a mandatory update for the whole network to acknowledge these new keys and will come as soon as possible,<br> within a few weeks.\n\nRob States in the Security PDF\n*The reason it is important to upgrade your beacon quickly and this is being treated with such high priority,<br> is to ensure all of our researchers stake the claim of their personal CPID,<br> and this will prevent any hacking groups from taking ownership of the CPID or the e-mail address you currently use. Note: An effort has been made to make it very hard to create a keypair using a boinc CPID without actually owning it,<br> but nevertheless if you upgrade your beacon immediately this threat is removed.*\n\n[The full update from Rob (http:\/\/gridcoin.us\/Guides\/GridcoinSecurityUpgrade.pdf)\n\n<hr>\n<center>\n<h1>Support us to support an Active Community<\/h1>\nThis Post is part of Gridcoin Weekly and 50% of the SBD earnings of this post will be converted to Gridcoin currency for Neural Rain.
