 This is a sample golang client for the Solana gRPC interface.
 
-Requires golang 1.17
+Requires golang 1.21
 
 Sample usage:
 
 ```
-go1.17 run ./cmd/grpc-client/ -endpoint https://api.rpcpool.com:443 -x-token <token> -slots
+go run ./cmd/grpc-client/ -endpoint https://api.rpcpool.com:443 -x-token <token> -slots
 ```
 
 You can also make non SSL connections:
 
 ```
-go1.17 run ./cmd/grpc-client/ -endpoint http://api.rpcpool.com:80 -x-token <token> -blocks
