I heard due to the necessary hard-forks, the entire network runs very centralized now, is this true and why is this being called out?

What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

That's what I am asking the forum oblox

Did any code change in the last 2 updates or why exactly the hard-fork that is necessary? I read in other forums that it changed the system to be more centralized so I just wanted to hear some inside news or if it's just FUD

===============
v0.11.1.23 - Masternode payments fix
v0.11.1.24 - Fix masternode payments sync bug / BlockHeight default for CalcScore
v0.11.1.25 - Ban cheating pools / stronger enforcement code
===============
Can someone elaborate?

Its 37.5% for masternode payouts not 20% and going up in steps.
When we were on testnet, Evan simulated the fork network attacks, the wallet had a kind of self repairing/self righting anti-fork technology which put you back on the right chain automatically usually in the hot wallet but sometimes reset/reindex was neccessary.
Am not aware we had a hard fork as such, there have been 'soft ones' based on network majority using the spork technolgy I believe.

Exactly where is this so called centralization meant to exist? I see only 2100 masternodes around the world, fairly well spread out so, there is no central server or hub as such if thats what you mean..

That's why I wondered why the instantX hard-fork was supposedly centralizing the Darkcoin Blockchain, other than by continuing to use Masternodes, which aint' centralized in my opinion.

I think it's just some misunderstanding, judging the post now

Just for the records :grin: Awesome!

Is the minimum protocol version currently 70054 according to this:
https://github.com/darkcoin/darkcoin/commit/e6ec9665d5a6c5de869f04dee42b6a0e213a1ac3 ?
And does it mean any MNs with version less than v.11.1.19 will be forked off the network?

Yes and no
Yes, minimum protocol version was bumped. And, no, technically they will not be forked, they still live on the same blockchain. But what this means is that new clients will refuse to talk to too old clients. But at the same time old clients still can talk to 70054 to get blocks and such. However after some time when most clients will update clients with too old version will not be able to get blocks and will have to update to function properly. We need to slowly get rid of outdated clients to keep network more or less consistent.
