ZEN 2.0.15 replaces the current version 2.0.14, which is set to deprecate (no longer run). The major focus is on updating the Bitcoin Consensus algorithm. This is not a hard fork.

- Update RPC commands/thread names/messages with new Horizen name
- Update Horizen logo
- Fix erroneous log messages on wallet rescan
What happens if you do not upgrade before October 10th?

- Swing wallet users: You will not be able to access your funds until you upgrade to the latest Swing wallet version.
