Other

Release Highlights:

Stuck on a fork? No more messing with block hashes.

Now you can enter the Debug Console and use resync from BlockNumber to get back on track.

Need to rescan? Simpler rescan function added.

Jump into the Debug Console and enter rescan to have your whole wallet rescanned.

Not interested in Staking or Masternodes?

Set litemode=1 in your dapscoin.conf to enable “Lite Mode” with these functions turned off. This allows for less CPU usage and a simpler UI.

Important about Lite Mode:

If you are running masternodes DO NOT switch on Lite Mode as you won’t receive rewards.
If you want to stake DO NOT switch on Lite Mode as you won’t receive rewards.
