Omni Core v0.3.1 Released: Recommended upgrade!

Adam
Dear Omni Layer integrators and developers,
we released Omni Core v0.3.1, which is a minor release and not consensus critical in terms of the Omni Layer protocol rules.
Besides other improvements, this release provides two new RPCs to create funded transactions and to pay fees from different sources (omni_funded_send and omni_funded_sendall), two new RPCs (omni_getwalletbalances and omni_getwalletaddressbalances) to query token wallet balances, and significant stability and performance gains of Omni Core.
An upgrade is highly recommended.
To download and view the release notes in your browser, please visit:
While most exchanges list USDT, we would like to ask you to also consider listing Omni, the native token of the Omni Layer protocol. We would be happy to guide or help with an integration.
Please feel free, to contact us for questions.

There have been recent reports of scam sites starting to popup which aim to imitate Omniwallet in an attempt scam people out of their wallet information. Please remember Omniwallet’s official url is https://www.omniwallet.org . To prevent loss, always double check the url of the page you are visiting before attempting to login to your wallet. Additionally we urge users to ensure they have setup/enabled a compatible MFA device on their wallet.  As a final note/recap, we recently released the updated Omni Core Integration Guide . If you are looking to integrate Omni Core into your platform this should be your first stop for information.

Version 0.3.1 is in final release prep. We are finalizing release notes and verifying builds. We expect to announce the general release within the next 2 weeks. In addition to some general stability and performance improvements this release adds some new rpc calls which support local wallet balances and funded sending.  Funded sending (a more in depth article to follow) allows the use of an additional address to help cover the extra BTC needed when sending an Omni Protocol transaction. In order to validate with the bitcoin blockchain the original sending address will still need at least one utxo to contribute to the transaction but now the bulk of the network/mining fee’s can be paid from a separate address.

Omni Core Integration Guide Now Available

Adam

With the growing popularity and increasing use of the Omni Protocol and the asset/tokens created there within, we have put together the following Integration Guide.

The primary goal is to provide a starting point for service providers/exchanges/wallet operators looking to incorporate the Omni Protocol into their platform. While this will not cover every single use case or integration option it should cover the majority and provide a good starting point for platform operators/maintainers on where to get started.

The full guide is available here: https://github.com/OmniLayer/omnicore/wiki/Platform-Integration-of-Omni-Core with an excerpt of the Table of Contents Below
