Today Masternode version 12.2.3 came out - that quite shortly after 12.2.2 while 12.3 is already overdue (roadmap planned 12.3 for Dec.). So another update.
Usually I like to update very quickly to support the newest version for the network. But today I started wondering. Does updating put me back to the beginning of the payout queue?
I am updating with dashman so I am not 100% sure as I know there is a possibility to restart the masternode without loosing the place in queue (RPC). Does anybody know?
Than again I was wondering - am I legit to recieve masternode payment if I am not on the newest version?
With so many updates the right timing effects the return significantly. So I thought I put the knowledge of the steemit community together to assemble a timing guide for masternodes - coulnd't find anything alike.
