  1. Stop Masternode Hot Wallet
  2. Delete onion_v3_private_key file in PIVX data directory (so it could get a v3 address - it was previously using a v2 address named that per the release notes of version 5.3)
  3. Comment out the following lines in hot wallet pivx.conf: masternode=1, masternodeaddr, masternodeprivkey - this is so that the wallet doesn't quit when starting and gets a new v3 private key.
  4. Start Masternode Hot Wallet
  5. check debug.conf for new .onion address - you can find it by searching for this string "tor: Got service ID "
  6. Stop hot wallet.
  7. edit hot wallet pivx.conf masternodeaddr line to equal the address found in step 5. Uncomment all lines commented out in step 3.
  8. Start hot wallet
  9. Edit masternode.conf on CONTROLLER (cold wallet) to insert new address found in step 5.
  10. start controller wallet and let it synch
  11. restart masternode.
  12. shut down cold wallet
  13. check hot wallet is started using pivx-cli getmasternodestatus
