The PirateCash network has started preparing for the v19 activation

At the moment, 836 blocks out of 927 have already signaled support for the upgrade, which means the chances of a successful v19 activation are now very high.

If the current pace continues, v19 is expected to activate on May 28.

❗ If you are a miner, masternode operator, or full node operator, you should update as soon as possible. Older versions will not be able to fully operate on the network after the hardfork activation.

🚀 New Release: PirateCash Core 20.1.1

Today, the PirateCash network successfully activated the v19 consensus rules at block 1858752 (May 29, 2026, 06:10:44 UTC). Shortly afterward, at block 1858794, outdated clients that had not upgraded were forked off the main network and are no longer following the valid blockchain.

We strongly recommend that all masternode operators upgrade to PirateCash Core 20.1.1 as soon as possible.

Please also note that after June 13, 2026, the network will begin signaling for v20 activation. To participate in signaling and remain compatible with the network after activation, your node must be upgraded before that date.

📥 Download PirateCash Core 20.1.1:
https://github.com/piratecash/piratecash/releases/tag/v20.1.1-pirate

Do not delay upgrading — running an outdated version may cause your node to follow an invalid chain and lose synchronization with the main network. 🚢☠️

⚠️ Most PirateCash Nodes Are Still Running Outdated Versions

According to current network statistics, the most common PirateCash Core version is still 18.2.4, even though 19.1.2 was released more than a month ago and 20.1.1 became available yesterday.

If you have not upgraded yet, you risk experiencing issues with staking, masternode rewards, exchange deposits and withdrawals, and overall network synchronization.

As a reminder, the v19 consensus rules were successfully activated yesterday. Following activation, outdated clients that did not support the new rules were forked off the valid blockchain at block 1858794 and are no longer following the main network.

❗ We strongly recommend upgrading directly to PirateCash Core 20.1.1 rather than 19.1.2.

This is especially important for:
• Masternode operators;
• Users receiving staking rewards through PirateCash Core;
• Users sending funds to exchanges or accepting payments through PirateCash Core.

We would also like to remind everyone that on June 13, 2026, the network will begin signaling for v20 activation. Nodes that are not upgraded in advance risk finding themselves on the wrong chain again when the next upgrade phase begins.

2026 will be one of the most active years for PirateCash network upgrades. If you use PirateCash Core to store funds, receive rewards, process payments, or operate a masternode, keeping your software up to date is no longer optional — it is essential.

Don’t wait until rewards stop arriving, deposits are rejected, or your node falls out of sync with the network. Upgrading takes only a few minutes, while the consequences of running an outdated client can be much more costly.

🚀 Mandatory Update: PirateCash Core 21.1.1

A new version of PirateCash Core 21.1.1 is now available.

⚠️ This update is mandatory for all masternode operators.

What needs to be updated?

1️⃣ Upgrade PirateCash Core to version 21.1.1

📥 Download:

2️⃣ Upgrade Corsa to version 1.0.62

⚠️ Masternode operators must update both PirateCash Core and Corsa to remain compatible with the network.

Running outdated software may result in compatibility issues and disruption of masternode services after the activation of upcoming network changes.

P.CASH Wallet v0.58.2 now supports Zcash Ironwood migration 🚀

The latest P.CASH Wallet v0.58.2 introduces full support for the Zcash Ironwood network upgrade, making the transition to the new shielded pool simple and secure.

With the activation of Ironwood, Zcash is moving from the Orchard shielded pool to a new generation of shielded addresses. If your ZEC is still stored in Orchard, your funds remain completely safe—nothing happens to them automatically. However, to continue using all features of the updated network, you’ll eventually need to migrate your funds.

P.CASH Wallet now handles this process for you.

What you need to do

Update to P.CASH Wallet v0.58.2.
Wait until your wallet is fully synchronized.
If your wallet is eligible for migration, you’ll see a prompt to move your funds.
Confirm the transaction and let the wallet complete the migration.

No complicated commands, no exporting keys, and no manual procedures.

What’s new in v0.58.2?

✅ Support for Orchard → Ironwood migration
✅ Full compatibility with the latest Zcash network upgrade
✅ Built-in secure migration flow
✅ Automatic detection when migration is required
✅ Seamless user experience

We recommend updating as soon as possible to ensure full compatibility with the latest Zcash network and future improvements.

Download P.CASH Wallet v0.58.2 today and stay up to date!

🔄 SWAP 6: Launch Timeline, New Exchange Process, and Additional Bonuses

Dear users,

You keep asking when SWAP 6 will begin. In this announcement, we would like to explain the expected timeline, the preparations currently underway, and the new opportunities that will allow participants to increase their final payout.

📅 When will SWAP 6 begin?

As we previously promised, SWAP 6 was planned for August–September. At this stage, we are leaning toward opening applications for the exchange in September.

Why are we not announcing an exact date yet?

During the previous five exchanges, we identified several problems that users encountered. Before launching SWAP 6, we want to resolve these issues and make sure that the entire new process works correctly.

1. A new personal account dashboard

During previous exchanges, many users did not understand how to submit an application correctly. In addition, it was difficult to fit all the necessary information conveniently on a small smartphone screen.

To solve this problem, we are developing a new personal account dashboard that will be accessible not only from a phone, but also from a computer or another device with a larger screen.

The application process will become much clearer and more convenient. This new dashboard is also part of our preparations for the second season of the game. The team is currently working actively on its development.

2. Increasing your payout with an NFT

SWAP 6 introduces a new way to increase the amount of PIRATE you receive by using an NFT. This functionality has already been implemented.

Available NFTs must be checked only through the Mini App in @piratecash_bot.

The bot determines which NFT can be used to receive the +90% bonus, because the NFT must be linked to the same address that will be used to receive the payout.

Simply holding an NFT in your wallet without correctly linking it to the payout address does not guarantee that the bonus will be applied. Before submitting your application, make sure that your NFT is displayed in the @piratecash_bot Mini App and linked to the correct address.

3. A warning before receiving a black mark

During SWAP 5, users who used auto-clickers received black marks. Some participants claimed that they were unaware that auto-clickers were prohibited, which resulted in significant negative feedback.

In SWAP 6, the system will first send the user a warning that the use of auto-clickers is prohibited.

If the system detects another violation after the user has received this notification, the user will receive a black mark.

This mechanism is already being tested.

Why has the exact date not been announced yet?

The team has an internal deadline by which all required functionality must be completed. However, we do not want to announce a specific date before development and testing are fully finished.

Otherwise, any adjustment to our internal schedule would be perceived as a delay to a previously promised date.

For now, we can confidently confirm the following:

Applications for SWAP 6 are planned to open in September.

The exact date will be announced after we have tested all planned features and confirmed that the system is fully ready for launch.

🎁 Good news for SWAP 6 participants

The new exchange will include several ways to increase your final payout.

1. An increased SWAP 6 budget

The number of players and coins has increased significantly, so we have decided to increase the overall SWAP 6 budget.

This will allow more PIRATE to be distributed among participants.

2. Premium will provide an additional 5%

You can activate Premium to increase the amount exchanged.

During the previous exchange, this bonus was available only to Android users. In SWAP 6, Premium can be activated on any supported device.

Active Premium will provide:

+5% to the exchange amount

3. An additional 5% for SWAP 5 participants

Users who participated in SWAP 5 and have not reinstalled the P.CASH app or deleted its data will be able to receive:

an additional +5% to the exchange amount

4.

Any eligible NFT will provide an additional 90%

Any NFT that is displayed in the @piratecash_bot Mini App and correctly linked to the payout address will provide:

+90% to the exchange amount

The bot will verify the NFT and payout address before deciding whether the bonus can be applied.

Together, Premium, the SWAP 5 participation bonus, and an NFT will allow users to receive:

up to 100% of the balance available for exchange

These standard bonuses cannot increase the exchange amount beyond 100%. However, three unique NFTs will provide separate additional rewards, which are described below.

🛡 Additional NFT privileges

In addition to the +90% bonus, an NFT provides two more important benefits:

protection from a black mark during SWAP 6 only;
the ability to remove a disqualification free of charge in all exchanges.

An NFT therefore not only increases the payout amount, but also provides its owner with additional in-game privileges.

💎 Three unique NFTs with special rewards

After all NFTs have been sold, we will hold a special livestream.

During the livestream, three NFTs will be selected at random, and their owners will receive unique additional rewards.

🥇 First NFT

The owner’s final payout will be:

doubled

🥈 Second NFT

The following amount will be added to the calculated payout:

50,000 PIRATE

🥉 Third NFT

The owner’s final payout will be:

multiplied by 1.5, with an additional 25,000 PIRATE added

These rewards will be applied separately and will allow the owners of the three selected NFTs to receive more than the standard maximum of 100%.

Preparations for SWAP 6 are ongoing. Follow the official announcements, avoid reinstalling the app unless necessary, and check your NFTs in the @piratecash_bot Mini App in advance to make sure they are correctly linked to your future payout address.
