Bor Version Update - CS 2007

Hey @validators

Attention Validators. This is an important announcement

We have an update on the current version of Bor. We have made some minor changes to the package and you will all need to update it to make sure that your node is running correctly.

You need to make sure that you use the same address & private key that you used to setup your node. If you use a different address/private key you will run into errors.

This is only for validators that have already setup their node. For validators that are yet to setup their node, they can follow the announcement from yesterday.
