NOTE: Do not use this article if you are using Infura as your ETH wallet, as Infura does not need updates, and this may start Geth instead which will consume server resources.
NOTE ALSO: If you're running Geth, you are overpaying your DigitalOcean expenses by close to $100 monthly. We have since switched to using Infura, which costs only $20-40 monthly for your server. Please see the article 'Saving on monthly server costs'.
As always, it is important to back up your wallet, especially before making changes to wallet software.
Checking your version
You may check your current wallet version with:
geth version
If it is not v1.9.23, you should update the Geth wallet to the latest.
Updating Ethereum
In order to update, run this command in your server's terminal:
curl -sS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lamassu/lamassu-patches/master/wallets/eth-update.sh | bash
If successful, it will output 'Ethereum is updated' and your server will be running the latest Geth version.
Verifying
Afterwards, verify that the earlier version command now outputs the latest.
Additionally, check that the Funding panel in your admin displays your current balance.
