PAI Coin 2.1.0 is here! UPDATE TODAY.
If you are running a full node, solo staking, and/or solo mining, you must immediately update to 2.1.0.
To update, execute the following commands in the paicoin directory of your full node.
paicoin-cli stop # stop the node from currently running
git pull # pull the latest changes from the paicoin repo
git checkout 2.1.0 # switch to the latest release
make clean # uninstall your previous build
make # compile the new release
sudo make install # install at the system level
paicoind # restart your node
For ALL solo stakers: Make sure your node is online and voting!
Execute this script on your staking node.
Hereâs how:
- Download the script from here.
- Either:
- Upload the script to the full node you use for staking, or;
- Copy and paste its contents into a new file on the full node named voter_check.py
-
Run the following commands to execute the script with the correct dependencies (these commands assume that voter_check.py and your paicoin directory are both located in your user home directory (~), and that your user home directory is your present working directory, pwd):
sudo apt install python3
cd paicoin
sudo make install
cd âŚ
python3 voter_check.py

How to connect PAI Up Mobile to a specific node
Follow these instructions if you are unable to sync PAI Up or if your PAI Wallet still displays incorrect data after a sync.
Traditional apps, like WeChat, connect to a central server to retrieve and upload new data like incoming and outgoing messages, or new Moments from other users. PAI Up doesnât work like that. Since the PAI Blockchain is a decentralized peer-to-peer network, there is no central server. But every PAI Coin Full Node acts like a central server, and when you launch PAI Up, the app has to chooseâbasically, at randomâwhich Full Node to connect to.
If your connection to the node is poor (for example, because itâs physically far away), or there happens to be something wrong with that node (for example, because its owner is not properly maintaining it), PAI Up might not work well. In this case, you should manually reconnect to a different node. Hereâs how.
From the main screen of PAI Up â Menu â Preferences â PAI Coin Settings â PAI Coin Nodes.
Now, take note of the âCurrent Primary Node,â then choose âSwitch to Manual Mode.â From there, enter one of the following nodes (one that doesnât match the Current Primary Node from the previous screen) in the top field and choose âOK.â You can enter either the URL or the IP address directly. Then, make sure the âNode Connection Statusâ shows âConnected.â If it doesnât, or if it oscillates between âConnectedâ and âConnecting,â choose a different node from the list below and repeat the process.
