PyBLØCK ᛒ Android 1.3 (190) is out • Mined rewards follow the network's final rule: from block 979,919 each new reward unlocks on its own after about 180 days (25,920 blocks). • Each locked reward now shows its own unlock block and a progress bar. • Rewards mined between 973,440 and 979,918 still unlock at block 979,920. • Lightning: SEE ALL now loads your whole payment history, page by page, and a slow connection no longer empties the list. • Recent activity shows the last 10 payments.

PATUM Plumb Umbrel 29.4.3.knots20260508.plumb8 is out • Required update before block 979,919: Plumb 8 on Bitcoin Knots 29.4.3 (final). • From block 979,919 each new coinbase matures on its own after 25,920 blocks (~180 days); coinbases mined between 973,440 and 979,918 still unlock at block 979,920. • A node still on 29.4.2 would follow a different rule after that block, so update now. • Plumb 8 also adds a token-message filter (-rejecttokenmessages). • Binaries are the signed Plumb release (Jason Sopko), checked byte for byte. • Same data and settings: nothing else to do.

ᛚ Laguz 0.1.11 is out • The first setup no longer fails with "app is busy". The first start creates (or restores) your node wallet and can wait for lnd or for a Bitcoin node that is still syncing, which may take a few minutes. The setup screen gave up after 30 seconds, and trying again failed with "app is busy". Now it keeps waiting and shows what it is doing ("Creating your node wallet…" / "Restoring your node from the recovery phrase…"). • Includes 0.1.10: restore from your 24-word recovery phrase (plus your channel.backup for the funds in channels), and wumbo channels up to 1 XBT on Umbrel.

pyblockMiner 0.2.41 is out • Security and reliability update. • Recommended for everyone, especially rigs running --auto-update or headless. • Safer self-update: the miner only accepts a release version of the form x.y.z and checks every download against the release's SHA256SUMS.txt before installing it. • A mismatch installs nothing. • Headless / HiveOS / systemd: the log kept going silent after the first 300 lines (blocks, GPU down, pool outages stopped reaching journald). • Fixed. • Donation: if the donation gateway is down, nothing is owed for that time.
