Today, we deployed the second beta release of the Zcash reference implementation, 1.0.0-beta2, to the testnet. This is the second release of the Zcash Beta Series. The new release includes the following changes [1]:
This release also makes reliability improvements in the wallet, however some work remains to be done around importing keys and rescanning after restarts. If you are encountering problems with the wallet, stop your node and restart it with the -reindex flag (Example: ./src/zcashd -reindex).
This release will reset our testnet, invalidating all previous coins and breaking backwards compatibility. To get connected to the new testnet, follow the instructions on the Beta Guide.
Additionally, you can now reach our main test network node through a Tor hidden service at zctestseie6wxgio.onion.
